I completed the psychometrics the next day i received them. Also, the day following my completion of the tests, which was on the 29th Dec, they sent me the Skype invitation. It was asking me to tell them a couple of my available times in the day of 2nd Jan.

Ps: I still haven't received an invitation to Doha.

TonT, if you fail the ATPL exam you won't proceed on the assessment.

You'll have to wait 6 months to apply again for the role.

Study material for the 50 Tech Questions

I have an FAA ATPL and the first time I went to the QAexec interview they give me a 50 question exam and I had no idea of half of the exam. I am going for the second time and I want to pass it.
Then I find out it was EASA ATPL questions and nothing to do with my plane.

Is there a book or program to study for this exam?

Thank you,

AM

Sorry to hear that. Just Google'd some for you. If you're looking for whole sets (hard or soft/online copy), they look a bit pricey, around £1500:

Cats Aviation ATPL set

Pad Pilot was useful for our cadets in my ex-company

CAE Oxford looks a bit cheaper

You can also use less budget for limited-time membership for the question bank in this site (my ex-company was using this one for its cadets)

Alternatively, you can go for that famous www.latestpilotjobs.com . What this site basically do is compiling all the in formation and feedback about each airlines' screening processes and present them in an orderly way. For Qatar (both Airways and the exec, which are almost the same), they give out a 600-question database which you can practice on.

Personally, i was looking for a good set for myself, to keep in my ipad just as a source for reference. Thank you for being a reason for me to make a quick research 8)

I think it varies greatly; applied for the Airbus rated FO at QE around same time and got response just this week.

Could anyone highlight average days off a month currently at Qatar Executive?

Hi guys. I request your thoughts on this.
I twice applied for A320 FO position at Qatar when I had not reached the minimum requirements. I got an email disqualifying me.
But now I have met the requirements needed. How do I delete my account and start application afresh? or rather can I start a fresh email and re apply?
Thank you for your input(s)

Mgggpilot, yes a friend of mine did it and worked. Just create a new account with a different e-mail. Good luck!

c560xl, 4 days off in a row every month that are called "Golden Days Off". Conditions apply though, leave and training days may cause you not getting them... but on a regular month you should get it no problem, but not necessary on the requested dates. Maximum days off that you can bid for is 6 days, but unfortunately with the lack of pilots around here is impossible to get it, specially captains.
