6-8 months for Fast Track... 8-10 for a NTSO (from the current scenario)
Also, the pay is 10000QR with housing and 16000QR without housing.
Current situation -- no housing given to SOs. Hence takeaway 16000QR.

The carrier runs a scholarship programme for young Qataris, sponsoring ambitious youngsters to train as second officers, and plans to open this to foreign citizens

Just curious, what does annual pilot attrition look like at QR? How many pilots resign or are fired annually (on average)? 100-200 pilots departing annually? Obviously new hiring will need to cover departing pilots as well...

QR housing
Regarding the housing situation....
I knocked back an offer in Jan of this year because of various family issues, but am looking at applying again.
I understand that co housing is gone (due to numbers of new hires) but I wanted to know how easy/difficult it is to find your own accom.
I will have a wife and 2 small kids (3yrs and 6 months) coming with me so I'd need a 3br place.
Does the 10,000 cover a place?
Also, what about furniture and appliances etc, are they expensive?
Cheers

Formal Offer of Employment
Hi All,
Just a quick question.
I received the positive e-mail a month ago, for the position Fast Track Second Officer. In the mail said it is seeking for approval to employ me and it should not take mroe than 6 weeks to receive the contract with fleet allocation.
Did it ever happen that someone who received a positive mail, NOT received the formal offer of emplyoment?
Cheers,
C U in Doha.

Anyone ever been asked to fill out the hours summary again and submit it back AFTER the interview? They asked about 10 days after the interview, I submitted it to them again and haven't heard from them for over 2 weeks now.

Goodmorning 
i wanted to ask if someone knows what is the recruitment policy of Qatar Airways refering to non visible scars in the body(from surgery incision). I recently attended the cabin crew recruitment process and although i passed the first day of the process , during the second day, when we were taking the english test, they were asking each one of us privately if he/she had any scars, even no visible. I told them that i had two from appendix removal incision-very old one, and from breast augmentation surgery. I was not chosen after all but since i wanted to reattend an open dayin the future, maybe in Emirates, i wanted to know if someone knows sth about this matter (scars, breast augmentation). Thank you in advance

I understand on arrival in Doha, and after you open a bank account with QR's preferred bank, you can then get a salary advance for the first month, and take subsequent reductions in pay over the next 2 months to cover the initial advance?
Can anyone tell me when the usual 'payday' falls in the month.
Regards
