Hey Triplese7en how long did it take between good news and contract?
What is your fleet assignment?

Thanks.

The F/O minimum is 1000 on multi-crew, jet. if i have 900hrs now and can reach 1000hrs within 2months, bearing in mind the long application process, can i apply for this position as i will easily have 1000hrs by the point of employment?

thanks

Qatar Timeline
 

Hi guys,

I have found the information very informative over the last few months and have decided to add my own. I started the application process in November last year, I received my interview date 10 days later. I then interviewed in late December, got my letter of success at the beginning of Feb, received my letter of offer at the end of March and received my start date yesterday. I am starting at the end of May. The entire process took 6 months from start of application to start date at Qatar.

I found that after the interview, I had to phone Qatar at each stage to follow up on what was happening and then received my answer via email on the same day of the phone call, not to sure if that was just coincidence.

Good luck to all and hopefully we will all meet at Qatar in the near future.

Congratulations AKing!

DEC/FO/SOFT?

Congrats AKING
 

You said you had to phone Qatar at end of each stage....which number did you use?
I did interview on 10th march and waiting for a response.
All the best n hopefully c u in Doha.....

SUK,

Don't you think its a bit too early to call them up. Check PM.

Good Luck!

Somebody down here who also applied 4 or 5 month ago but did not get called for an interview yet? Am i really the only one down here?

No you're not! I applied last november and didn't hear about them so far!!:{

Hello fellow drivers.
 

No you're not i apply every november of each year sometimes twice a year since 2004 and nothing so far :}, for some people the E.A.T is just
XX:XX Z :{, hang in there guys.

triplese7en,

Congrats! Were you offered a SO or FO position? Also, how soon do you find out fleet type? Do they offer a fleet when you get the contract or is the fleet allocated closer to training?

Great job coming from the Q400 - give many people hope if they are not already flying 737NG, A320s or bigger. Given that the Q400 is sophisticated and able to fly in difficult weather, it should get more respect than it does thanks to the props.

Triples7en,

With such a screen name and yourexperience,it seems like strong will is paying off.
Well done!:D

Dhc8 and co: perhaps what you can do is deactivate your account and create a new one. I'm afraid otherwise you stay in the never existing loop.

Like was previously mentioned, maybe try applying again.
I had applied and never received any answer for 8 months.
I then reapplied using any agency, Paramount Aviation,(exact same application-only they want you to use a different email) and got called shortly after.

Bond737,

I know it's abit too early...ESP from what I have read here so far but a few of the guys I was with have already got the good news.....nothing for me so was wondering if I should call n find out or just wait n c.....

SUK,


Looks like you're going to get good news too! - deduced from the general trend that the more it takes to get your results, the more chances that you make it through.
Good Luck and do let us know!

Cheers.

Hoping for the best..
Vl wait 2 weeks then try them up...
Thanks once again for the contact...

Casablanca,

That's what I did, I applied via agencies as well, they replied that my application was already in good hands directly with QR. I received an email the same day from QR asking me to update my profile on their website. Good!! But this was months ago, and nothing more since. Losing hope:ugh:
Applied as an FO.

Applied for F/O mid Dec 2011 (4000hrs F100), screening/interview early March, positive reply 2 weeks later - waiting for contract and fleet info. - relieved as I haven't flown for 2 years:O

Good to hear MTT but i don't get it. They must have some criteria. I simply dont get it.:ugh:

how do you answer this question?

and what does HPL certificate mean?

Thank you

Human Performance and Limitations I think .. JAR holders only
For me I applied aug 2011 as FO called for interview in Feb. got the pass email on Mar. Waitting for fleet allocation ..

Anyone has information about the upcoming roadshows?

chrislikesblue,

They would definitely put it up on their website.

Brie & casa: thanx for the advise guys i tried the email change a year ago and nothing yet thanx anyway and good luck.

Dhc8 what is your flight experience? And what did you apply for?

april interview
 

I've been invited to attend the interview on the 25th of April.
Anyone else going on the same date?
Regards

onefoursix,

Best of Luck!

Would really help if you kindly share which position you've been invited for - DEC/FO/SOFT/SONT.

:)

I applied for the f/o position

Hey Brie, i applied for SOFT with my modest 1700 hrs TT mainely DHC-8. i will try again after my PC next month, what about you mate? c yah guys.:rolleyes:

Did the screening/ interview 3rd week of March in Doha for FO. Patiently waiting. Any one who did their stint during that period got either good news or bad news yet??
Is it true that bad news comes faster than the good one?:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

....
 

:}will let u know ...now on week 10 or 11 ..aft Interview !

Hi Guys!

I received the good news after the interview (SO) end of January and since nothing... Someone who could tell me what's going on since I can't join them on the phone?
If somebody got a good phone number don't hesitate to pm me it would be very useful for me because I'm getting a little bit anxious about the waiting time now!
Thanks+++

@victor75, wait till the 20th of this month. You should be alright :ok:

@mac maniac
 

check PM please

Why the 20th of this month ?

@ITO more than 50% of who got their good news waited 12 weeks. And as for VIC he is in his 11th week. Have look at Second Officer thread and correct me if i am wrong. its all guess work but same as forecasting weather :)

I've been waiting 12 weeks just to hear something after submitting my online application!! Anyone waiting any longer? I thought 3000 hours of heavy worldwide experience would be a good fit. Cheers.

I've been waiting nearly 6 months after submitting now! 4000H+, mainly on jets but no heavy jets experience, only military and GA. Maybe that's the reason why I'm not considered :}

I wonder when we will start to hear about people offered 787 FO seats? :D:ok:

Who knows - maybe a few will be offered this summer and early fall as more start to arrive.

@ runbamaca &kbc: i'm also waiting for an answer after submitting 4 months ago. Have +1000h jet time corporate. Seems they r also not interested. However in that case they should change the requirements on their website. It is misleading i would say then.
