hairyA320 try the site: Human Performance Company & Training Design Specialist. Is the official site of the company which has created the test. Good luck. give me some infos about your invitation for interview: when did you apply, which position, your experience.....

Thanks, will give it a look.

Just a quick question that I would appreciate help with. Is Qatar no longer accepting applications for First Officers due to the size of the holding pool? My account seems to have been deleted (wanted to update) , and I can't find any FO openings on the career site. :sad:

sorry for this seems to be an obvious question maybe... maybe not.
Q3 on the application, it asks do you have a current IR? seriously? is this Instrument rating?

yes it does....you flying 360's on Kwajalean?

Iron,
thx, instrument rating it is then...
no, I am Ca on a 747-400.

loved the Shorts though!! first love..

Hi all.. Request a bit of info. Does anyone know if QR has any non poaching agreements with other airlines? It means that if you are from X airline and you want to join QR you cant! Its going around... For eg Emirates and Indigo pilots cant join QR.
Is this just a rumour? And even if its true do you guys think if a pilot who has a joining date with QR, leaves such an airline, serves the whole notice period, gets the NOC (No Objection Certificate) and reports to QR to join that QR will still decline them????
A friend of mine is in such a predicament..
Any thoughts on this??

Yah flew it myself 3 decades ago, the "Irish Concorde" anyway you slice it, it comes out square.....

that's right Ironbutt,

"Anyone can fly a round airplane". My crosswind landings are better today because of that plane, LOL !!!

so seriously, does IR mean 'Instrument rating" or 'Instructor rating' or what?

actually I have a bigger fish to fry, but just checking every detail, thx !!

Yes it does mean Instrument Rating and you receive that after completing a License Skill Test (LST). You will have to complete a type rating course/conversion course to get it.

80-87,
thanks, I guess I don't have it.
I will check NO, thank you for clearing that up.

Guam - with your 747 background I am surprised Emirates or that other large UAE airline hasn't picked you up. At QR I would look for a DEC position if I were in your shoes. EK would still be my top choice in the region.

Good luck!

I would have to say you need to click yes to qualify....if you are type rated and captain on 747 you have to have it! An FAA ATP doesn't specifically say IR but that is included and a requirement to hold ATP privileges.

thanks casa,
yes I assumed so. yes, we all have it if we are flying airplanes for a living, but having it on the application questionnaire part and then asking about it here, seemed a bit odd. finally Iver mentioned a LST, which I have no idea what it is. so I must not have it, if it is a GCC thing, or I am missing something.

what have 1000's of pilots done in the past, this cannot be so ambiguous.

LST...
 

The LST is the "License Skill Test' for the type that you are applying for in Qatar. The LST is essentially your final sim check after you've completed all of your training.

The LST is conducted by a TRE who is acting on behalf of the QCAA.

As mentioned above..LST is the equivalent of a type rating.

LST
 

WRONG...The LST is the final check-ride leading to the type rating.

Yes
 

I heard that He was kicked from office

Any rumors about when Qatar is hiring Fo's again through their website ? i really would appreciate it..

@FMSPEED

visa
 

Hi guys I already have my joining date was wandering if anyone tell me when do you normally receive the visa and joining ticket for me and my wife .

Also once I start training can my wife travel out of qatar after getting her initial tourist visa or does she have to wait for the resident permit under my sponsorship

thanks

Hello speedhold nice to hear your good news! I have no idea about the visa requirements and procedures about bringing your wife,but my feeling is that it wont be too complicated. The most complicated thing must be the recruitment procedure. I am trying to understand the logic behind this,what would be the average time frame from initial assessment until someone gets a joining date. When did you do your interview and when you got the DOJ letter?

hi there i interviewed feb 29 2012 pass email two weeks later and then in may 2012 signed and returned the contract . got email in feb for start date in aug 2013 . Its all going very slow I think they are trying clear the backlog.

Lecm, are you typed?

Qr
 

Hello any rumors when qr Will resume interview for First Officer?

Cheers

Joining visa
 

Congrats Speedhold... U will get your visa details about 3 or 4 days before travel. When I joined I told my contact at hr that I will need ticket for my wife and son and they processed that right away. If u r coming from a country where they give visa on arrival then it's easy for your family. Otherwise they will need proper visa prior to arrival.
U will have the proper paperwork to come inti Qatar with a work permit but your family will come in as visitors initially and once u receive your residence permit ( 3-4 weeks) you can change there visit visa to a residence visa under your sponsorship.
Hope the info helps.

samolin

thanks for the info . one more question does qatar arrange a ticket from where i live to a qatar network . ie tampa /jfk/doha .or is it only jfk/doha.

cheers

Normally the non Qatar sector must be pre-approved.
In my case I said united is cheapest from Bil-iah.
They will normally have you purchase it and reimburse you.
In my particular case they said don't buy it we have a better fare and sent me eticket from bil-den-iah- doh for whole family.

thanks for the info

Speedhold, check your pm.

DEC A320
 

HI, guys, i submitted my online application as DEC for A320 in late Feb and no response from them until now. Do anyone know how much does it get to receive an email from Qatar HR? :ugh:

Perhaps they have evaluated your english already, and found it to be unacceptable.:E

Sorry, some words missing. How long does it take to receive an email from HR?

PAT test?
 

Hi everyone,

I have been invited back to doha to do a PAT assessment. Does anyone have information regarding this test, what exactly it involves?

All i could find on this thread was that it includes psyc test and some one posted a link to a symbioticsltd.com website, that only has a FAST test available. Any links for prep would be nice!

I would appreciate if anyone can shed some light on the test, if it is the same for all positions (i am SO) and how important it really is for new joiners.

Thanks :)
