logbook authentication
Is their anyone from the United States who can tell me if 8710 forms are enough documentation to verify your logbook during the interview? Were the only country who cant request a letter from a civil aviation authority.

This is from EK website FAQ about logbooks....My guess QR will have the same policies.
"It is a requirement that the candidate provide complete certified logbook records when they are invited for the selection process. It is unacceptable to have some years missing, misplaced or otherwise. Prior to joining, all pilots must provide certified evidence of hours flown. This can either be a stamp in their logbook from their Fleet Manager/Chief Pilot verifying their hours flown or a stamped original letter from the record/fleet department of their respective airline/authority."

Hi all,
I received a request for documents from Qatar last week advising that I meet the requirements for the second officer fast track position.
I supplied what I could - except for the MCC document. Where I fly it was not a requirement for the issue of my ATP and not currently required for the aircraft I am flying. To get an MCC certificate will require a fair bit of Sim time which I simply cannot afford.
1. Do you think that the above will be an issue and ruin my chances for an invite to interview? (I did explain my situation to them through my application form).
I have read through most of this thread but feel some information may be outdated.
2. How long can I expect to be in the Second officer position before an upgrade to First Officer? (4000tt 2000 Multi turbine command and a few hundred Jet)
3. What can I expect to earn as a Second officer?
4. Lastly, what was the waiting period(+-) for most after the 'send the required documents' request to the 'invite' email?
Thank you all for your time. If I have asked obvious questions, I do apologize, as I have said, I have browsed this thread and most of the info im looking for is pretty old. Or I am blind. One of the two.
Cheers,
Wings

Finally got the good news today seven weeks after my interview!!
I'm guessing I will go to class in around 3-4 months, is smart or even possible to take a month off to go on holiday before class? Would the amount of paperwork they want in the joining process make this impossible?

Break contract with current company and pay the bond if the job at Qatar is important, and worth it otherwise stay where you are, Plus they asked you if you have a bound and you should've been honest. If you said NO then you should be responsible to pay the bond.

Go the good news yesterday after 3.5 weeks. They said they would be back with contract/fleet/start date in 4 weeks.
Does anybody know the approx. time it takes to start after that?
