Nick I had mine at 1230pm Tues. Im ex Ansett and they kind of fast tracked us I guess ... Watched the video and then went and discussed the nitty gritty stuff with an ex-union rep. After that had a one on four with the Qatar manager. Difficult to say how it went honestly ... Said we will recieve a 'yay' or 'nay' in about 10 days. Also thanks A300 for roster info - how long do you stay in a port on an overnight trip ?

manty,
QR does recruit asian people. I actually had a girl from Singapore in my training course last year but unfortunately she left to get married back home!
A300man,
part of our training is 2 observer flights, one in the A320 and one in the A300. The reason for that is that service in the narrow-bodied aircraft is different to that in the wide-bodied. I think now new recruits can get an obs flight in the A330 instead of the A300. Depends on rostering.

Hey Nick
I'm in the same boat man. Just waitin for the "Yay" or "Nay"...
I was the last to go thru the panel from our group. I was the 'Last Man Standing' geez it had those horrible similarities to Big Brother evictions..
For those who made it thru the final stage... Good Luck!!
This waiting is horrible... Anyone know how many FA's they are lookin to recruit from OZ?
Be sure to let us know when you finally here from them.

QATAR interviews
Well kids..
Just wondering if anyone esp.ex AN staff has had any response from QR.
I heard a group (90) Flight Force staff were interviewed on the Monday before the general Information and registration sessions were held on Tues/Wed.
If so were you guys given any indication of the intake number for OZ FA's, and what was the time frame specified to you?
We were told that we should receive a response in two weeks.. (1 week to go).. and if given the green light , Visa's would be organised ready to commence 4weeks.

Ok guys have sat back and looked at all your replies and well what can I say.
Fact Qatar Airways have a no poaching agreement with EK so if your looking at it as a way to perhaps get over to Emirates forget it. They will not touch you with a barge pole if you join qatar.
You would have to resign from QR go home and then apply.
Perhaps your looking to join qatar to get some experience give it a try but can guarantee that within six months if not sooner you'll be quitting and going home or jumping ship down route somewhere.
Their are still a lot of problems at qr well what can you say with 31 cabin crew resigning in the month of may and many more in the last few months.
Please dont get me wrong I very much enjoyed my time at QR and the country is great a little bit hot but what can you expect with living in the middle east. But what I did refuse to accept was a COMPANY CEO telling me what I can do in my spare time and who I can see as well.
As for rosters I still have a few friends still their and their rosters are like hell and have been for months operating with min crew and getting bribed to do it. Days off down route seem to be common place these days and its being rostered that way. It has not moved on from my time back in early 1997 only got a few more crew..
Suggest you check things out very carefully and not just take the glossy cover and oh by the way the training department is also run by a twit who also thinks he god!!!!!
Best bet guys hang it out and keep going for EK if its the middle east life you want and also a No1 (CSD) at qatar gets about the same money as a Junior at EK. (this is fact also)
Happy flying and keep safe
