Well Unless you are Willing to put you hands into your pockets, or renting a 3 or 4 bedrooms flat ( and even),indeed the housing allowance offered by Qatar airways most probably won't be enough to rent a comfortable villa for you and your family in Doha.( + furniture)
And apparently the rent is expect to rise in the coming years..as it's was not yet expensive enough...
Doha is not a cheap place to live when you have family with you,and to be honest, as a joining F/o with 3 kids, you will not save that much money here..

Smoothflight, you are never on a airplane here, until you are here
and on the airplane. Know what I'm saying ? Don't throw the 320
manual away just yet.

Hi guys..

Just a question concerning how thy contacted you..

Did they contact you through the web based interface or directly through email?

Having received an email myself, but my online application portal still says under review and it's locked...would it be wise to consider this a genuine email?

Thanks

@Jerman it will be a problem as I am not current toy flying at the moment...... , do you work for them? Do you think they would reject an application over 30/40 hours??

makes me curious to see qatar hiring 320 rated fo's to the triple seven, 2 different types.. so again…why they aren't hiring non type rated Fo's once for all, as i hear the pass ratio for Fo's are very low.. well…too sad for those ready but without a boeing or bus rating..seems a little discriminatory to me.. hopefully they're gonna change their minimums soon..

Hi vitorps87
Interview june 2012 for FO position
Pat test November 2013. December 2013 offer of employment. Yes, I was in pool for about 16 months. Flew 737-300/400 efis for about 6 years and now A319/320 for about 1 year. Things started rolling for me when i had reached 500 hrs on Airbus last october. I am offered B787 to start in April 2014.
Strange, since QA e-mailed me last year asking when I would-be reach 500 hrs on the Airbus.
