I applied 20 months ago and never got a reply.

Stick35 29th Apr 2012 17:24

Very strange indeed. Im wondering on what base they select candidates.

dirk85 29th Apr 2012 17:34

I am by far the least experienced of the lot.
The only thing that I can think of is to keep the profile up do date... :(

I see people here with less experience than you and me but getting an phonecall. Dont put all your hope on this carrier. I have the impression if u dont hear a thing within 3 or 4 months, just forget it and try to find something else.

dirk85 29th Apr 2012 17:51

Well it's only a week I have put my application, still time to wait.

Maybe they don't value too much experience in GA.
As you know not the best of time for us business jet pilots, unless rated on the big toys...

Black Pudding 29th Apr 2012 19:00

Sorry, no idea.

NTSO
 
Hello all,

The assesments for NTSO´s didn´t come to a complete stop.
A friend of mine who attended a FTSO interview in the beginning of april was in a batch with FO´s, FTSO´s and one NTSO (the guy came right out of flight school, non qatari.. believe he came from the UK).
All communication regarding NTSO interview results / contracts did come to a complete stop.
I am very happy I got the chance to do the assesment but after almost 4 months of waiting without any results my hope of getting a positive answer is slowly diminishing.

I hope that someone indeed has some intel about the selection / intake of NTSO's and especially about the fact that almost all NTSO's who attended assesments in the beginning of january didn't get their results yet. (Some NTSO from beginning of december are waiting for 5 months+ now, just for their assesment results).

Goodluck to all of you!

casablanca 29th Apr 2012 19:53

I interviewed in April..there was one person in the group that was a corporate pilot. I dont believe he had previous airline experience.

NTSO
 
Just for Info,

A friend of mine applying for NTSO, who did the interview in January, just got the good news yesterday, while I got it 11 weeks ago.

sandson 30th Apr 2012 12:08

@ironbutt57

thank you! applied last week, so let's wait!

ryanb5005 30th Apr 2012 17:26

Anyone have details on employee pass travel? Does it include parents and siblings? What is the priority like? Could you give some examples of costs?

Thanks

hairycanary 30th Apr 2012 23:03

Hi guys,

I received email invite for interview 27th May(FO), but unable to attend that date due prior commitments and work.

Any idea if they just put you onto the next available interview slot, or is it back to the back of the queue? I applied in January, btw.

Thanks in advance.

NT/FT
 
hello,

If you've done the interview for NTSO and you will reach one of the requirements for FTSO is there a chance that you can join as FT?

After the interview in doha i got hired in a company flying 737's and if i see the waiting times here there is a big chance i'll reach 300h multi engine multi crew.

Kind regards
Flying Apple

Senior Officer.
 
Hi guys.

I dont remember this answered in the previous treads. Forgive me if I am wrong.

Would anyone know what requirements need to be fullfilled to be hired as a Senior First Officer instead of First Officer?

Thx...

flyforfood1 1st May 2012 14:57

Well you need to have been in the company 3 years for a start....

bizjetbus 1st May 2012 18:56

I was supposed to start as direct entry captain with another operator but the deal fell through due to operational changes.... I am short on PIC time for DEC with QR but if I would join today as FO how long would it take to get an upgrade? Is it even possible to make a reasonable estimate?

sevenfive 1st May 2012 20:13

ohhh, darn....

salamalikum2 2nd May 2012 00:57

bizjetbus..
...4 years....

bizjetbus 2nd May 2012 05:12

That's what I was afraid of.... Better off getting a DEC position somewhere else then I think. Thanks for reply!

aka the aviator 2nd May 2012 15:19

I have been following this topic for some time now but newer get around to join. I applied for FO at the beginning of march but no news so far. I have more than enough PIC on Turbo prop but no jet.
Anybody applied in march got the interview date so far?

hairycanary
 
the same happened to me and I've emailed them giving a period of time when I was sure I could attend the Pilot Selection Program, and after a week they shedulled a new date. No problems

Nice landings

hairycanary 2nd May 2012 21:42

Thanks cat3, been a few emails back and forth, they seem to be very accomodating....:)

Joining date
 
Just one question....

The joining date you have in your contract, is it the date at wich you arrive or you must be there one or two days before?

Thanks guys.

Gregling 3rd May 2012 08:38

@thib017
 
It's the date at which you meet Qatar Airways different teams. You'll arrive usually the day before. But everything will be enlighted in the mail you receive, with you flight to Doha etc...

thib017 3rd May 2012 08:43

Merci Greg ;)

QR - NAV AND ATM
 
Hi All,

Does someone care to share some HR contacts, pls pvt msg me. I applied for Navigation and ATM officer (Ground based) position more than 4 months ago, but no reply. Reading this thread it does not surprise me. Just want to make sure if i am being considered or i should opt for other positions. I know one thing for sure is that they are hiring. With my little research found out the pay is quite good, very challenging role. manager is ex-qantas,gulf air.

Hi,
I'm applying for DEC A320, can't get past pg2 on the app as it says "conversion error" - anybody else had the same/got past it ?

Redline 3rd May 2012 18:37

Conversion Error...
 
At the bottom of pg2 there's a question asking how you found out about the position... The error comes from that... You need to select something apart from the obvious.. Took ages to work it out...

Routes
