i got the interview in February and my pass email was the same as the holding pool email

Hi
 

In the same boat as u.
Interview in march and pass email in may indicating formal offer and fleet allocation in no more than 2 weeks.now it's 3 months+ and nothing.No pool nor update.

Is Qatar (QR) still interviewing?
 

I submitted my application about 2 months ago to Qatar Airways and still waiting for an email/phone call/etc. Are they still interviewing? Wonder when the last interview was accomplished.

Any July, August interviews!?
 

G-day all,

Just wanna know if there has been anyone through the interview process any time from July till now... If anyone did his/her interview in either July or August, please let us know. I have seen only one post from PilotofDoha who did his interview early July...

As far as I've heard, there hasn't been any interviews going on lately. Just wanna know if it's true or not.

Safe landings all :ok:

I have a friend waiting for SO training for the last 3 months post induction.There has been a hold on hiring for the last couple of months. Mainly due to the large number of inductees from Spanair on the 320 and a backlog of SO training.

July interview
 

I had an interview on the 4th of July applied for FO position just been put in the holding pool and an update in November expected! I am not expecting a start date until summer next year as I guess I will be right at the bottom of the talent pool.

Have been told there are 400+ pilots in the holding pool..waiting for a joining date!
So surely the key word must be : patience!:uhoh:

Hi All,

Anyone got a DOJ for early December? Got mine a month ago.

PM Me :ok:

Cheers

I will try again
 

Guys, anybody knows something about near and future positions as Second Officer at QR?

Am I eligible with these requirements?

more than 1000hrs most of them in a single turboprop airplane and almost 2000 TO/landings?


thanks a lot

talent pool
 

QR is trying to liquidate a % of pilots from the list since they have no space for the moment until 2013... They are expecting a large number of Auto-layoffs ...lol

Ive heard from a good source that NOV update guys are considered for 2013.

Good luck to every one !!

What's a auto-layoff?

talent pool
 

hehehe i meant drop downs !!! since it was mentioned on the EMAIL ;)

and the italian airline Windjet (mainly A320 fleet) ceased operations yesterday bankruptcy announced..."holding pool"...ready for further delays?:rolleyes:

Having said that RK..QR is NOT the only airline recruiting 320 pilots.
Only here in the gulf you already have 4 options fort those jobless pilots;QR,AA,EY,EK...:)

What makes you think than any airline bankruptcy would mean further delays for the hold pool?

Spanair went bust because Qatar Airways cancelled their plans to buy the company. There was obviously some agreements in place to take their pilots.

Spanair went bust because Qatar Airways cancelled their plans to buy the company.

Spanair went bust because it was in financial ruin..QR decided it was not a wise investment, so they declined.....

all that swimming
 

guess I lost some weight doin all this Pool thing ....:}:}:}

Seriously ,need a Job ,now !!!

Qatar were in talks to buy the failing company. They didn't go ahead so the company went bust.

Spanair leaves passengers stranded after going bust


In those talks there may have been an agreement to interview the workforce.
Seems thier hold pool is pretty full now, so I doubt Qatar will be doing more interviewing in the near future.

still posting on PPrune since 1999, despite the morons they let on these days....

Qatar or flydubai
 

I am in the talent pool for Qatar told i will get an update in November! I have also passed the assessment for flydubai and will have a start date before Christmas. what does everyone think i should do? I am very keen on the long haul fleet but i think flydubai would be better on the short haul :confused:

Personally i have to say go to flydubai.
But that is only so there is someone less in the talent pool :E

I have no idea about the conditions and and the flying at flydubai so i won't be of any help

FD
 

I would go with with which ever airline can put a contract letter in your hands first.
No point in closing your doors with Fly Dubai just to find out that QR wont be taking you after July, Nov or whenever they say they will.

Fly Dubai
 

Of Course,You should choose Fly Dubai.

You may be removed from Qr deep pools.
Nobady knows what will occur on Qatar's holding pools.
They easily changes their minds,so if I werw you,I will go to Fly Dubai.

I envy you so much.

A bird in hand is worth 2 in the bush.

Do not throw away surety for unsurety.

Capt Aviator.

I would wait until you get a start date with FD, then I would call Q and tell them and ask for a def start date. I would much rather work for Q than FD without a shadow of doubt. On the other hand, can you not apply to Emirates or Etihad ?

...
 

i dont get this anymore ...
how can people getting a DOJ which were
1.) interviewed aft me
2.)rewcieved good news ,LOE aft me
3.)less hours
4.)same fleet

Is it just a everyday quiz or any system ...

Sorry but Im getting little now unrelaxed ...
:bored:

UP

Maybe Qr is starting to do what Emirates does, call poolies based on their performance on their interview, and not based on the date that they received their good news or interview date.

anyone else waiting since last november? im still in the pool as far as i know, but im waiting for like 10 months now. ntso.

They have just removed the vacancies for captains and FOs from their site.....

Yes i have seen that too on their careers webpage.

And the 40 years old max age when joining.

Seems strange they would only advertise for fast track SO's.......

Hmmmmmm.

Hope they are not too strict on the age either......

I'm still showing SFI, wide/narrow capt, FO and SO- Fast Track on the jobs page....

POOL??
 

Hi guys ,
Quick question I interviewed in FEB got my pass email 2 weeks after that and then returned and signed the contract in MAY asking for a DOJ of OCT 2012. I did not get any pool email and I have been able to confirm this from HR that my name is not in the talent pool. Is there anyone in the same situation as me.
Applied F/O direct entry
Fleet A320 assigned .

Thanks

Hi all.

From QR global website. 2 minutes ago, careers section, flight deck section :

Only FTSO and SFI request.

From QR Malaysia website : all positions available.

What else !




Gear down.

Interview
 

Anyone has the interview soon?

Recruitement
 

Hi guys,

Any idea if recruitement for FO's and FTSO's / NTSO is still going on (on a very low frequency). What numbers are needed for 2013?? Again 700 pilots or much less? Hope all talent pool guys will be placed.

Is there a flow through of pilots from Qatar Executive to Qatar Airways at all?

Good friend that joined early june on the A320 tells me DOJ assignments will resume towards the end of the year. Hang in there fellas cause I'm in the same boat.

From my understanding you either get hired to the Exec side or airline side. Benefits are almost identical and but I'm not sure if guys go back and forth.

How about time to upgrade to the wide body fleet from the 320 FO seat... Does anyone have any idea about how long ?
