You don't have to mention the questions so it's fair for everyone, I'm just curious how the layout of the day goes.

Hi, I attended the first assessment session in the morning. It went for about three hours and consisted of a meet and greet in the lobby so usual intro stuff about the role and then collection of paperwork and having your height measured.. After this we were split into three groups to do a group activity, interviews and a written component after you had completed all three you were free to go home and I heard back the following day that I was successful through to the Xref stage. Good luck if you are attending an assessment day soon!

Hi.. They mean no stilettos or open toe shoes or sandals. Court shoes are totally fine. When you are doing the EPs and go on a famil walk around airside footwear will be more restrictive but until then it's corporate professional office style and if you are a current flier, your current work Shoes are perfect.

Thank you very much for the informative and prompt reply.

I've never heard of QF AD's having a written component before.

It wasn't really an assessment.. you just needed to read a document and answer a few questions to see if everyone understood.

Hopefully, it doesn't take long at Fairwork! It's a great looking EBA.

I'm up to the same stage as you.. I hope we hear back this week. The process seems to be a lot faster this year so I'm hoping they need staff for the ground school at the end of July. The form said Medical but it's usually Asic first because it takes longer to process.

Hi Littleturtle,
I received XRef the day after my AD I didn't hear anything again until a month or so later telling me I was on active hold.
You will find with Qantas that it's a bit of a roller coaster with the recruitment process, it's hard to give a set time because it's different for everyone. Fingers crossed you hear something soon.

Remember, no news is good news!
