The answer is easy, i love airplanes, it's my passion for that i became a pilot, but i'm frozen atpl and it's very difficult or impossible to find job as pilot, and i need to work, so i prefer work in a plane and be in contact with the aeronautical world than continue in my city working in another things with no relations with airplanes. Thanks so much.

I am meeting with Qatar here in Toronto, Canada on the 18th of April. I am quite excited and have numerous friends that are already with Qatar Airways - they love it! It really isn't as bad as people say! It is truly a great company with a lot to offer long term!
I have a couple of questions if one of you could possibly answer them.
1) How long after your open day did it take to receive your "Congratulations, You're successful" email/letter?
2) Then from getting this letter, how long after that until your flight to Doha?
I am trying to organize logistics on my end for my condo and potential changes in my life.
It would be great to hear back from one of you! And a HUGE congrats to all of you successful cabin crew members at Qatar Airways!

Hey there! I had the same issues as you did , specially because now I am living overseas.
Each case is different , but the average times are:
From OD/AD/FI to Congrats e-mail: 7 to 14 days.
From Congrats e-mail to boarding to Doha you have to consider:
- How fast you get to do your medicals in order to get 'medical clearance' and the availability you put in your form: 'Imediate, 1 week...etc'
Considering you put 'Imediate' and you got your medicals fast , I'd say that this time would be 3 or 4 weeks.
Cheers and good luck

Sincere Thanks!!! That is great! And a little break down of the Medicals would the following? Do they have a doctor in the city that you see? What exact procedures do they do? I just had a full physical . . . and here comes a second 
Oh well, better to be healthy than not and to be sure of it is even better!! Thanks again for providing me with information. Very much appreciate it

Qatar airways have its own small medical center. You’ll do everything there, except some small other checks you’ll do them at a clinic in Doha called Apollo. You’ll do also finger print at one of there government thing to get registered and later get your Qatari ID card…etc
The first week, there will be quite a lot to do in terms of paper work.

Did you by any chance get an email inviting you to the Open day in Madrid or are you just going to stop by?
Boa sorte! ;-)

Thanks Emma,
you know i was wondering if it's really right to write them.
I thought they might think that I was already showing signs of incompetence.
I just told them it will be hard to complete the medicals since we are having Easter until tuesday.I hope they understand.
Do you think if I wrote them again,to ask for the applicant's number,would be wrong?
Again should we write them when they are in office?As you know they work from Sunday to thursday.
Also, I just discovered that here in Germany, I need to have an appointment(which takes about a week to get one),to do the medicals or to atleast see a doctor.
How was your medical experience like?

How is the medical stuff coming along fellow future Qatar Airways Cabin Crew. I am sure it will all work out and what what I know from friends at Qatar already, they are quite understanding. No stress - keep that smile on and Happy Easter
Now a question about pre-employment medical. What does it entail?

Brownskin,
Of course it wouldn't be wrong of you to email them again. After all, the recruitment officers are there for any questions that you might have before joining QR. They won't mind and write whenever you like because they will reply eventually. It's a lot easier than ringing and definitely worth asking before leaving.
I didn't have any problems completing my medical examination and emailed my documents within a few days. It all happened very quickly.

Emma,
Did you need to go to several doctors as not only the one doctor can do all the medical check-up? If you went to several doctors, who (which doctors) should put his/her signature under the 'Medical Examiner's signature & Stamp' which is in the pre employment medical's form?
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Abigailnoo,
I think it's your GP (general pracitioner) who should sign your documents because it's him or her you went to in the first place and also whom you would be your first primary contact whenever seeking medical advice.
As long as get you the documents signed you'll be fine.

I just came from some doctors,who all refused to check me up.Is this normal?I dont understand Germany anymore..Back home I'd have already done over with the meds,no matter if it was with the family doctor or not.
Are those of you in Germany encountering such problems as I?
I happened to do some tests back home before i came to Germany, which is like an year ago.Could I possibly use them?HIV 1&2,SPUTUMand HBa.
How long or after how long should such medicals expire?
Anyone with an idea?
Thankyou
