Congrats on getting Qatar.
Would have gone to the interview myself if I'd not heard about it the day before. Try getting on a flight in school hols with one days notice..... and that's paying full fare.
Have emailed them my resume in the hope that the rumours re them coming back to do more interviews are true.
Am ex AN myself and am still very proud of the way we ran our service. Have had a chance to check out our previous competition in the last 6 months and have to agree not a patch on AN.
Notwithstanding the fact that not all AN F/A's were hard workers or always happy, as with crews the world over, you can't expect that a few bad apples wont slip through the system.
Do us proud BOURGEOISIE. Along with the other AN guys show them just how great we are so they come back for more!!!

You too!
After New Year? By the time I'll be leaving. Perhaps you are the one who will be filling in my position once I leave!
Have you heard anything from them at all? When my interview was other they said we would have to wait a few weeks before we hear from them. But after three days, one of the recruitment manager phoned me. I was quite surprised!

Not that I want to put any of you off the idea of QR .... but it is a VERY difficult company to work for (read some of the threads on here) ... and Doha is probably one of the most boring places on earth to live ... and I mean B.O.R.I.N.G. Nothing to do, place looks half finished, spend all your time with the same small group of people (OK if you've lived the expat lifestyle before, I guess), hellish summer climate ..... I could go on!!
If you're considering the Gulf, Dubai or Bahrain are MUCH nicer places to live.

I couldn't agree less, Goldstone. Doha is the most boring place on earth. After one week in Qatar and you know this city backwards. This is why I spend most of my days off running in the desert. At least you have some privacy out there.
Bahrain is wonderful. So is Oman!

Please please please to any of you out there thinking seriously about going to QR, please thinkk again.
It might be easy to dismiss the gossip on here as sour grapes or boredom or whatever, but an awful lot of people have an awful lot of bad things to say about such a small company. It's not by accident.
Most of us came from western airlines, where the management are human beings and will listen to you. This is not the case in QR. You honestly have no idea how they will shaft you.
Do yourselves a favour, and do not go. I wouldn't tell my worst enemy to go to QR.
Don't bother listening to A300 Man, I'm still trying to work out whether it's AAB himself or whether AAB just pays him to post

Goat girl!
It could be him, although I had been thinking it was this bit edited out as he knows a lot about QR.
However, A300 man stated he knows who I am and knew my wife and that she was a good CSD!!?? I have asked him to PM me but he has not!
We had a great time there socially and some good flights, but until AAB lets the people do their job it will always remain a hostile and volatile airline to work for!

Dear Taba
Taba
I have been absent from the forum for quite some time and have been too busy to write. However, I insist that you retract your last comments made about me which have no place on the forum whatsoever. Your comments are inaccurate and not at all true. I am extremely disappointed to have read this slur on my character.
Like me, many of the individuals who write and post on this forum will know the guy that you are referring to. However, it is not me and I await your apology.
Indeed, I am furious at your comments Taba. Inaccurate and totally ludicrous.

Just caught this one myself... folks one of the great no-no's in here is do not "out" peoples real identities or try to fish for information as to them. Whatever your beef with someones stance or views you simply must not speculate in public like this, either way. If people want to make their identity known they will, otherwise respect the anonymity. This applies either way, here.
This thread has run it's course, and I'm closing it down now. Future discussion on QR will be watched very closely indeed.
