Qantas cadetship opportunities...!
https://www.flyfta.com/pilot-training/application-form/
I just noticed that FTA is taking in cadetships QC17, QC18, QC19 for employment with Qantas after graduation. What does everyone think about this? I have already done all of my training and struggling for a long time to break into the industry... this might be my chance. Has anyone got a job with Qantas after this?
Thanks for your insights!

You really didn’t do a lot of research into this industry before you started flight training did you?

I don't want to do that but I emailed them and they said I could get "recognition of prior learning" for some

This has to be a troll .. no one could be so stupid.
In these programs it’s never been a guarantee. Mostly due to the fact a cadetship/academy style program is in essence a very long job interview. If the employer picks up attributes of a trainee they deem a negative then it’s easier to reject them without going through a significant HR process if they were a formal employee.
However I think it would be in their best interests to offer employment to graduates as a first priority. In this well connected world if it turned out the Academy was just a branded flight school with a similar chance of employment as other schools then it’s interest would drop off quickly.
As a general rule through history cadets were always the first priority for recruitment, ie it wasn’t as if cadets graduated to a satisfactory standard then were told other groups would be employed over them.

However at what point are you actually "in". QF cadets a while back were going through the whole process, training, completing industry placement, being scrutinised at every turn and then getting knocked by HR at the last post to be left out in the cold after spending alot of time, cash, jumping through endless hoops. To say that left a bitter taste for some is a understatement in the least.
Nunc est bibendum
What happened to that group around that time was pretty poor. For the most part though, since the program has been running in various guises since the early 60’s most who’ve completed the course to a satisfactory standard have been offered employment when the company was recruiting.
Selection for the ‘academy’ (note, it’s NOT a Cadet course) is done external to Qantas by FTA. Whilst there is some advance standing given into the QLink recruitment process (note, QLink recruitment, not mainline recruitment) one still needs to jump through the hoops for QLink to be offered employment.
How many academy and QFPP course have graduated? It would be interesting to know how many of the previous graduates have been offered positions thus far.
