Qantas Recruitment
It probably gave them shivers knowing you would smell BS a mile away. I suspect they value compliance more than competence.
Unfortunately QF have always been able to be ultra picky..

Also have two mates on the yes from Qantas for the past year who also have yes’ from Air NZ and interviews with Emirates in December. They will take whichever one comes up first, I suspect it won’t be Qantas.

Have you been out of Qantas group for more than 2 years?
Once you served your penance period, the first step would be a reference from your manager.
Sadly when it comes to the murky world of airline recruitment you just never know, chances are a human didn’t even set eyes on the individual applications prior to the first ‘no’. It will purely depend on whatever criteria they have loaded into the system, 6000 hours may be an advantage or a disadvantage or of no help whatsoever, likewise being an ex Qantas Group employee may no mean anything. I remember going to an Airline interview with a mate, he had a superior application in all respects from my point of view, he went home after day one and I got the job, who the hell knows as he pretty much got the same cut and paste as your reply. If Qantas is where you want to be try again when you can.
Thanks Ollie Onion, yeah i agree it all depends on the day and half the recruitment process is based on the people who interview you have a big role.
Left on really good terms thanks for the concern though. Golden rule of not burning a bridge as you might have to cross it one day !!
Are you still in the two year “black ban” period? We were all told that if we leave the group they would not accept an application for any group airline for two years.

'They' will have you believe they only employ the best, as it suits their personal (looking-in-the-mirror) view, but yet, ATR chaps from Auckland are asking for SHL testing advice

It could be a myriad of reasons. For the recruitment period just closed I believe they had thousands of applicants for a few hundred positions. I guess a lot of suitable people weren’t lucky enough to get invited for testing. And a lot who did won’t make the final cut.
As others have said some are successful after multiple applications (and current plans have them recruiting hundreds per year for a decade) so there’s nothing precluding you from joining in the future, or with your jet experience there are a lot of opportunities in a market where het experienced pilots are in demand.
