Air Hong Kong
 
Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone has information regarding the recruitment process for air hong kong, especially interview and Tech Quiz.

Cheers,

damper.:ok:

I'm after the same info also. could somebody please help?

Hi Guys,

The selection process is not too different from that of Cathay. Depending on how it is organised, either you will do an initial interview and then be invited back for phase two, or you will do it all in one. Interview involves a tech exam, simulator check, licence assessment, english assessment, medical check and management interviews. The AHK team were very receptive, and certainly made you feel welcome during the assessment process. You will get details on the sim in the interview package, which is more than enough to prepare.

To prepare, I buried myself in ace the technical pilot interview, and a couple of other tech books + an HR interview prep book.... waiting to hear the result at the moment.

Good Luck!!!

:ok:... Sandy

hi anyone with any info regarding AHK f/o recruitment for 2010?

Mr. Lowkey 26th Nov 2009 07:37

The pay for fo under training at AHK poor, about 3000 US/ mo I have heard.

dekka007 29th Nov 2009 13:18

About 8k+ for FO.

SiNGH08 30th Nov 2009 14:35

HKD$?
 
Certainly that is not in Hong KOng dollars, is it? From all I have read in the past, the pay is not good there but realy not this bad i hope. What are currant hiring minimums?

dekka007 1st Dec 2009 01:51

of course its not HK dollars..... :ugh:

that would be 1000 US Dollars per month. Aptitude and logic and maths test failed ;)

Capt Vertigo 1st Dec 2009 02:19

Dekka

Whow! This FO salary seem to be a salary of Captains in some establish airlines. :ok: Must a be a great place. ;)

Consider this, 8Kusd living someplace other than HK will last alot longer than
8kusd living in HK, ask what other carriers(in HK) pay their F/O's, ...in the region of double that (housing plus basic).

dekka007 30th Dec 2009 01:48

if AHK employ you they pay for everything regarding licence conversion, aircraft training etc. It's not some mickey mouse outfit - well not when it comes to that area anyway ;)

bmwm5 30th Dec 2009 16:44

any idea if they would be recruiting f/o in 2010?

varigflier 30th Dec 2009 17:57

A friend of mine has been there for a little over one year and he lives in BKK. He loves it and the pay is around 8k like mentioned above. His schedule is 1 week on, 1 week off.

True, KA put just over double that in my bank account each month, but it's academic since by the time we start hiring again, I think they will be using transporters ( like in Star Trek ) to get around....thanks Cathay :ouch:

OH and be sure you want to stay with them for a while, a whopper of an ( enforcable ) bond :eek:

xdc9er 6th Jan 2010 04:54

I'll take a shot.

KA pays 16Kusd

KA will not be hiring any time soon due CX cadets.

AHK has a long bond period.

act700 6th Jan 2010 08:17

@ AHK, isn't the bond 3 years? If so, that is pretty standard.

AAIGUY 6th Jan 2010 10:12

KA is Dragonair

KE is Korean Airlines.

and my pay is almost 2 and a half times the Air HK pay.

8K is NOT a lot of money here.

& no bond...

Pardes 7th Jan 2010 21:11

WOW, everyone used to talk **** about AHK and now everyone is asking for interview tips... If you guy's are willing to get by-passed in CMD for the next 3 years, welcome aboard!

dekka007 8th Jan 2010 00:31

Surely, hiring as the neighbour is starting to recruit for the A330 operations starting soon as we hear .. ;)

Dfo is busy as usual domestic issues as rumour goes. :ouch:

xdc9er 30th Jan 2010 11:54

Ya'll don't know jack crack, ....no expansion,..... the spare acft sitting in HK will start Beijing after slot aproval, ....the hiring is to cover anticipated A330 recruitment( ....not AHK's tho.... lol)

So sez the fueler from Tung Chung.....

RedBaron246 31st Jan 2010 15:44

expansion? new routes? dont hold your breath! just some story put out there to keep the pilots from going over to HKA.

b747heavy 31st Jan 2010 16:29

Great to see so many "new" posters to this forum....:}

For those thinking of leaving AHK for Hong Kong Airlines, be SURE that you know what you are getting into!!! Madam Wu and R. Lim will promise you the world, then take it away the same day! :uhoh:

My personal opinion, AHK will be be the beneficiary! :D

RedBaron246 31st Jan 2010 17:26


promise you the world, then take it away the same day!
and you think the same thing isnt happening at AHK?

SiNGH08 5th Feb 2010 04:31

Forgive me if I am incorrect, but aren't there a number of posts previous that state AHK is only interview pilots in Asia and no more direct captain? The last two post do not seem to know that facts.
