patience grasshopper. Once you get the good news you can sit back and relax a bit and enjoy where you are now as you know you will be moving on soon :-)
I think it is quick quick slow slow. some people get lucky and get a smooth run, some wait for a while.
There is a mountain of new people starting and all need visa's, accomodation, sim slots/dates, ground school slots/dates, training capts etc.
So I am not expecting it to be earlier than 2 - 3 months from when I get the contract (hopefully on time within 4weeks).

Guys, do you think normal SO scheme are on low priority at the moment ? IMHO I think it can be a bit logic since DEC/FO/F.SO might be given priority especially if they are already type rated as they can get online quicker. But I believe that some of us here went recently to normal SO Interview isn`t it ? Are normal SO Interviews being conducted at the moment ?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Good afternoon all,
I have been following the QR thread for over a year now, keeping up to date with all the posts. Especially the ones concerning the busy times at HR. I thoroughly understand that the ladies and gents at the HR department are running almost 24/7 to keep up with the high demand of pilot applications.
But I still remain in doubt about the following. I applied at QR for the Fast Track SO position a while ago. I tick all the boxes, well over 2200 hours TT, over 2000 hours medium turboprop (20ton+), young, single, LPE6, ATPL etc etc. I even went to the presentation in London a couple of weeks ago, asked a few questions and spoke directly to the gentlemen involved in recruitment.
But now the following, it states on your application that if you do NOT hear anything after 90 days after your application has been submitted, you can ASSUME, you are not successful. Has anybody here ever experienced getting a call/email after these 90 days? Or can I really assume my application was rejected (which, considering all the boxes ticked and properly filled in, is a bit strange) Especially taking into account that QR need a lot of pilots the coming months/years. Is it possibly my application is still in the to do stack as QR is focusing on CPT and FO? Or maybe it got lost in the digital realm? Is it worth a shot to give them a call? Thanks so much guys and gals!

mcrit,
Assume nothing here, sim assessment usually done on 330 but it doesn't mean that you will get 330. Allocated fleet depends on previous experience but you could fly any of our types.
Sequence for all candidates is (usually): company presentation, written test (multi choice), interview panel and then sim.

For those who are looking for good info, goto page 173 or click the link...
http://www.pprune.org/middle-east/28...erged-173.html
Unless other candidates who recently interviewed experienced something different, my interview experience should give you an idea of what to expect for your interview. The practice exam I use to prepare for the exam are on page 171. (Note: This is NOT an endorsement of those sites mentioned.)
Good Luck!
PS... 2-weeks and still waiting for positive news.
