Qantas Link Trainee First Officer Level 1&2
Thread Starter
Yeah, mid April i believe. Does anyone know the final numbers for the March course? Just trying to get an idea for chances of getting a call for the April course.
Well there was only 5 last month...gone are the days of the so called 16+. For the last 6 months they have ranged from 5-9 per GS
On a seperate note, first direct entry captain starts in the coming weeks.

The experience levels of the current FO’s don’t meet the requirements for an upgrade. There are 7 CPT vacancies on the 300 in BNE as it stands.
Direct entry CPT req - 3000hrs + 1000hrs multi PIC (on multi crew AC)

They also have recently upped the command requirements for in-house guys (700 on type now up to 1000/1500 depending on entry pathway).... Yep, here come the saffers!
The 700 was always a waiver that the CP could enforce and not the actual minimum, this was based on individual performance through cyclics ect. There is still a clause in the OM that the CP can lower these minimums.
The only D/E capt so far is actually from cairns, all the south african's are starting as FO's

Pay for training/a job begins again. I thought this ended a few years back.
'Upon successful course completion, trainees will be eligible to enter the Qantas Group as a Turboprop First Officer with QantasLink'...... Only eligible...... But no actual job.
They'll fill the courses...

I’m pretty sure it’s not open to everyone.

The real question should be how many of the graduates are not already employed or on the hold-file (not just a Q)? My guess is Q have an idea of the numbers, hence offering this program.
