Cx deso after have attended roadshow
Hi folks!
I am just having hundreds of questions that from my point of view could be easily responded by ANY one who ever have been through the same assessment process with CX.
1st- Does SO will be granted a type rate?
2nd- How long after roadshow do they usually contact to go further(in case of any luck)?
3rd- in case of joining HK Express as SO, their training facilities and procedures are the same? What痴 the salary difference? And when would be give to you the opportunity to choose?
4th- How easily it is to swap (or choose during the assessment) to go to the narrow bodies fleet? How it works?
5th- Realistic feedback of joiners with around 550TT.
6th- I致e heard in one of those forums someone saying they need around 30 weeks of training for DESO lol 😝 but at the roadshow we were told about approximately 2 months maybe 3 maximum. Any info about it?
and last but not least I have a suggestion to have a WhatsApp group for all of us with the same questions and attending the interviews and joining process.

Hey everyone,
I made it to the final interview for the Second Officer Direct Entry position! I'm looking for any suggestions or tips on how to prepare for the interview. If you have any advice, please PM me. Additionally, would love to make some contacts there. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Great news! Please share your experience with the previous process, interviews, online assessment if any. Wish you all the best and highly recommend some jet training at any local SIM if you have this kind of access and have no jet experience. Good lucky and lets rock!

May I ask what your TT is? And what Type Rating(s) do you have? I知 aware that CX changed their DESO to TT1000 preferred, I知 just wondering if DESO has actually gotten so competitive that they池e hiring mostly pilots with 1000 hours or more and barely hiring anyone fresh out of flight school with 250 hours. Thanks!
