Hey Nikki88
I liked what you re-posted(is that like retwitted?). It had a lot to read. I went for a AD in Sydney with Qatar. Unfortunately I had to work that day so i couldn't stay all day but what I heard about the rules back then and it concerned me. I thought they were too strict and this is AD. Would you know how that would differ with that of Etihad or Emirates?

Limit for the luggage is i think 120 kg,max of 32 kg per luggage. Dont worry they will send you all the details you need
@ccdreamgirl:
I think as long as you inform them and they still have available slots for the upcoming date of joining dates,they can reschedule you. But ofcourse,it still depends on their decision.
I had a friend who were accepted in Qatar and was asked to travel in 7 days time. She gave a valid reason and her date of joining was moved.
@newcrew regarding visa:
On my experience I received my visa and ticket a week after I received my medical clearance. I heard some received it earlier than that,some received it late like a week before they leave.

Rejected at the second OD
hello people! am fairly new on this forum, so am sorry if i created this thread uselessly
yesterday i attended my second OD for qatar airways
the first one was with emirates airlines- (i wasnt even chosen for the 2nd day)
I wanted to know where i went wrong.
Yesterday while talking i stammered a little bit due to nervousness,
mentioned these on my cv:
i have a finance degree
am working as an assistant communication manager
i participated in many youth conferences
my cv was TWO pages and quite bulky and full as i listed all my duties i do.
i wasnot really smiling as my teeth are really not well aligned
i could not maintain a conversation with the recruiter. because of nervousness
i mentioned that i can talk some basic japanese (which is true), when the recruiter said ''basic japanese? how come".. i replied " some basic japanese like hi-hello-bye''
also i am 1m80 & wore like a 6 cms heels! was i way too tall because of the heels?
can someone advice me, how to be a better candidate for the next time? i am supposing emirates will come to recruit soon.
am thinking to take a public speaking course, a first aid course & importantly have veneers.
any advices?

a bit disappointed
Hello,
I've been to QA cabin crew CV submission yesterday and they called me and today I was there again but after the english test, they asked us to go out and called out names and i wasnt selected.
I was a bit disappointed because I knew I have done well in the test and I did reach 212 cm.
I guess they weren't impressed
I was wondering if i should apply a second time do people have chances of being selected if they tried it a second time? lol

Hi all! I'm thanksful for this very valuable information.
I applied online to Qatar Airways Jakarta division. I heard that QR always welcomes all applicant even not in recruitment event. Is that right? That means whenever we may apply online and wait to interview calling.
I applied last month but I haven't got any interview calling yet. Does it take a long time?
But after I've read this thread, I am a little bit hesitate to continue to be cabin crew because the rules. The most annoying rule is about smoking. Is that true that NO SMOKING AT ALL? Even I'm not using crew uniform and at public place , or when I back to my hometwon? I think that a silly and nonsense rule. You may not smoking when you use crew uniform, that will more tolerancable.
Does being QR cabin crew make you happy? How long (nights) you get layover when you fly to Europe, Asia or America? How often you get long haul? I heard that being QR cabin crew is very tired and busy because QR has so many short hauls that makes you fly some flights a day without get off from the plane when reached the destination.
Please your further information and thank you in advance

Hi yajna31! You're supposed to be aiming for a smart, corporate look, so don't wear party heels next time a 3-inch pair will do. I have never been on a flight with QR, but accdg to a friend, not all their crews have aligned teeth, so just smile as if you have perfect teeth. Smile like you mean it
