Qatar Airways - Wannabes & Recruitment II

[leaviateur]

Hello guys, I'm very glad to tell you that I received the congrats mail, after 14 days of waiting. I was pretty surprised since I was told that for males the process usually takes more time, but here I'm now running around with the med. exams. Hope everything's OK so I can go to Doha soon.
Somebody else received any email?

Greets! and don't lose your hope!

He applied online and he received this message. Is that mean, to attend this CV submission. you need to have an invite? or it's on open day and any one can just go?

thank you in advance!

The open day is OPEN TO EVERYONE! You don't need any invitation to attend.
Everyone gets the same email if you apply online. However, if you attend an open day and be successful, you will be asked to register online just like the guy who received the invite!

@MIMI277

Meals during traning course?

Hello!

Anyone who knows if we get free meals during traning course?

Cheers!

[The Blue]

^ Ha ha ha.

While i'm not in QR as of now but i can safely say that they'll take VERY good care of you in every way

[Chasson]

LMAO free meals during training??????? Is that possible???

[Wooord]

Regarding free meals

I don't see what's so funny about my question? It's not a matter of course. The airline company I worked for previously didn't provide us free lunch.

[pedrotobias]

hey...
how are you?
from the moment you get the ok from the medical, how long did it took for you to get your visa and ticket?

thanks in advance

[Emma Gemma]

Free meals whilst in training? QR is the airline which makes you sign a service undertaking for years as well making you pay for your luggage and re-pay your joining bonus should you leave within a year.

Simple. Meals in training are not free.

[Emma Gemma]

330Airbus - For as long I can remember QR have been struggling with having enough crew because of two reasons: resignations en masse and dismissals for silly reasons.

There are a couple of long serving crew with the company but they are few in numbers. Flight crew don't have to live to same regulations as cabin crew (visitors curfew and 12 hour window) but they are also under a lot of pressure.

Qatar as a country and QR as a company are what you make of it. Should you decide to go, do it with an open mind and expect anything to happen.

Arms

Does someone know if during FA Qatar recruiteirs still ask you to show them your arms?

Hi all,

attended a interview here in India ten days ago. All went well and I am really happy about the personal interview too.

However, they had asked me to send a full length photograph and a passport size photograph in a weeks time. I was away from my home town for all that time and so had to deal with a horrid photographer and sent a not so good pic because of it.

I am really having second thought about the pics I sent. Needless to say I dont want to lose such a good job because of such a silly thing.

Do you guys think I should send them a new decent pic of mine which would do more justice to my cause? Or would that look bad and I should just deal with the ones I have already sent?

[leaviateur]

I would send them a new pair of pictures. Explain them what happened and that you don't wanted to take so long to submit the pics and well that's what you could do. But you didn't fell like their were good photos and you are senden a new pair of pics to be considered. That only shows that you're interested in the position.

[Djsailor]

OK guys, I have applied to QA Open Day and things went well. I made it to the final interview and here I am in the waiting game. I don't actually know what to expect as the recruiters were really nice and sweet. They seemed to be pleased about my photos (Passport & full length) they were pleased also to hear about my job performance etc etc .. but I'm not putting high hopes on it as I also made it to the final interviews in Emirates last year and after 30 days sharp I got the awful e-mail that I was not successful. How long does it normally take for successful candidates to get the results? Whether a yes or no? They told us "Within" 3 weeks!!

[leaviateur]

@DJsailor

Hey, nice to hear you made it to the FI. Exactly the same happened to me, I made it to the FI with EK in 2009 and after 4 weeks received the rejection mail, but I felt it was going to be like that because I didn't feel confident that time.
This time with QR, I was so relax and everything went so smooth that I had a great feeling about it and after 2 weeks from my FI I got my congrats mails!
So I'm with the med. reports now, hopefuly will be in Doha soon!
Are you male or female?

I have heard of the latter ^ quite a bit from present & ex-QR folks off-hand.
Would you pls mind elaborating with some examples as i'm curious to know their discipline threshold (or is it that somebody just rubbed their Supervisor the wrong way ?)
