Muizenburg,
I welcome any corrections but I believe the week commencing the 12th is Perth based (Col88 posted that they were perth based to start on the 12th didnt they?) and know ground schools commencing 19th & 26th are for Sydney based crew.
Unless they mix different based crew in the training its looks like 1 perth and 2 syd base so far.
Col88 - Have you received your employment pack yet?

Col,
No I havent received my pack or anything in the mail yet. Only received a confirmation of employment email about a week ago. Doesnt your training start Monday the 12th? Thats only a few days away... you must be so excited!
I cant wait to get to ground school!
Suprised there are no flights or accom booked for you yet when you start in a few days!
Keep us updated on ground school. Good Luck!

Sydney Recruitment
Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone has heard back from Qantas in regards to Sydney base? Went to the meet and greet in Alexandria and was told we would hear back within fourteen days. I have called the hotline several times and they keep telling me it's still processing.
I think a courtesy email would be nice, my boss needs to know when and if I'm leaving. I think Qantas should check our Refs only if we will be offered a position. Has anyone been offered a position at Sydney?
Thanks.

Mollygrub,
I am Sydney based and start ground school Monday 19th April. A friend of mine is also Sydney based and is starting ground school Monday 26th April - which may have now been pushed back to Wed the 28th according to a post above ?
Good luck and hang in there!

Melbourne Qantas Domestic
Hi has anyone from the Melbourne recruitment days on March 13th and 14th heard back yet.
I was told that my ground school is starting on Tues 27th of April but the previous post suggest ground school is starting April 28th.
Has anyone else been told they start in Sydney on April 27th?
Just curious......

Hi Missym,
Did they let you know via email or did they call you? I have tried to call the hotline again but of course it is ringing out. I think it's very poor to give a time frame and then not let you know either way. I'm just going to take it as a 'no' I guess they are only going to take a certain amount of people and I am not one of those lucky few.
Good luck with everything and congratulations!

Has anyone received a no email?
Hi guys,
to those who have been waiting for a year, did qantas keep you updated? How long did you have to wait for emails? I'm really frustrated as there is no way of contacting anyone to get answers as now the hotline is ringing out! I'm surprised to hear how many are in the same boat as me. I think I might assume it's a no. Congratulations to all those going through, if anyone gets a decline email can you let me know. Thanks

I wouldnt be calling.. Im sure they are really busy .. Would not risk upsetting anyone who works in recruitment..Sit back and be patient... I waited for 5 months to be notified after my medical and ref checks. They will get back to you.. Frustrating as it is...
It just how Qantas works..

Hi everyone,
I'm feeling the same as you Mullygrub. I guess I'm trying to prepare myself for the worst but still hold a glimmer of hope. I'm hope we hear something by the end of this week. It seems as though pretty much everyone had their references checked and recruitment will be sorting through everyone and keeping their options open. This has felt like the longest few weeks in my life!!!
Good luck to everyone waiting. It appears that there are limited positions left. The fate changing emails will surely be sent soon.

Hi Grove,
Did you not get any indication for five months and then out of the blue they offered you a position? How much notice were you able to give to your employer? I'm stressing because my boss keeps asking me if I'm moving on, she doesn't want me to but she also needs as much notice as possible to find someone new. I just think it is poor to give a time frame and then not bother to follow up. I'm sorry to whine but I find this whole situation very strange...

Hi Mullygrub,
I didnt hear a thing from QF after my medical which I had in Jan.. Then a call in May offering me a position. I had the choice of 3 start dates, all were 3-6 weeks away so I had plenty of time to resign from my previous job..
Hang in there, the wait will be worth it. Its a really good job, money is just O.K but dont feel like I work terribly hard.. I am long haul but I think recruitment is all done by one department.

I think QD operate a little differently now. I was offered my position and given a ground school start date, subject to medical and security checks. I know a lot of airlines in the past made you have your medical without actually offering you the position. I think it's a much better system now, as I have been able to give my current employer at least 2 weeks notice (Which I did yesterday - YAY).

1. Recruitment are BUSY - leave them alone
2. They are having trouble giving people start dates as they can't get their security clearance checks completed before the ground school start dates.
3. Some people with later start dates will be asked to move forward to earlier training groups.
4. If you haven't heard yet - don't consider it a no. Be patient. There is so much to organise.
