Any idea when the applicants for the current opening of type rated fo gonna be called.Thanks

Most definitely not gone! PAT is still being actively used. Some earlier posts give an insight to its format but there is little prior preparation available.

Before you ask, yes, I have done it and my experience indicates that it is a mostly interesting and positive day.

Sorry but I won't be listing the questions I was asked during the interview.

The format is: online psychometric test before attending, a personal interview followed by the computer based excersises and finally a debrief. Total time 4hours 30 mins. Each candidate will receive an email, prior to attending indicating the type of computer excersises and an actual flying incident that you will be asked to research and then answer question about during the interview part.

Hope that helps, best not to worry too much about it, if you're invited, just go and do it.

When did you do the PAT?

Hi guys. I was told I will be invited for PAT on 6 June, then shifted to 16, but I kept on waiting for THE e-mail which I never got. I hope its gone. If not, no worries, just go ahead and do it.

End of May 2013. Been with the company a number of years, so not a new joiner.

QR Eticket Issuance?? date
 

Can anyone tell when QR issues one a eticket with a start date

You will need to take a flight out of Tampa on the 16 th. You will leave JFK on the night of the 16, and arrive Doha the evening of the 17 th.

Hope that clears it up for you.

Okay that's what I though cheers.....

Paper Lad: I heard it a week ago from someone also in the company, but maybe it is just a rumour.

QR pilots dont like it, and i also came across few QR pilots who said it might be postponed for a while.

Dear Obbie, my level of english is 5 , if u wanna have copy of the certificate just ask.
By the way, I'm able to speak 5 languages, can you?
You didn't have any good answer for me , so you just have preferred to say something else very stupid.
Be polite with the other people writing in here, DEAR MR CAPTAIN.
Keep respect for all the others are starting their career.
The position as a Captain is the most important, that's obvious, "unfortunately" , on board, we need F/O and S/O too.


For all the others; the time will change and the opportunities will come.

Best Regards

Wow! Good one! That's three laguages more than me.....not to worry simba, obbie's attitude will not get him far in a multicultural carrier like QR, maybe in Goering's Luftwaffe but not in the ME.....
Cheers Mate and don't give up..

QR accommodation
 

Hi all.

Any news on company villas, I believe there is a shortage at the moment and that waiting times are up around the year mark for a 4 bed at the AKG. Does anyone know if QR are looking at building/procuring more villas? What compounds do they use for villas? I know they have AKG and Pink villas, any others?

At the moment I am assuming that I will have to accept whatever accommodation is offered and then move out using the company accommodation allowance supplemented by around 6000QR a month.

Cheers

GBD (awaiting start date)

Medical
 

hi mates,
is there any medical exams during QR interview? How is that?
Tks

No medical during interview...

Are captains with families being put in 3 bedroom apartments or only villas? If no villa available can they opt out and take the cash?

Thanks Capt Jack Rosen,
what if a candidate has any health issue? They will just find out after hiring him/her. :rolleyes::confused:

I asked that exact question and they said the candidate would be terminated... Sadly no recourse...

hi guys,anybody knows the A330 FO salary rate and how they provide
the ticket benefits?

soso appreciate..

The new rule only allows you to have a max of 10 days off/ month.so I guess anything above if they don't need you they have to put you on (a useless)stby.Thats why sometime they have tons of pilots on stby.
Non sense rule.

Any one with any info of when the screenings will start for the present openings of Fos.Much appreciated

PAT
 

Hey gents, i'm about to show up for the PAT, can anybody brief me for it?

I will appreciate

Are there still guys in the pool or everyone has got the DOJ? I'm asking because six months ago lots of pilots were complaining about waiting too long for the DOJ and now everybody disappeared. I hope everyone were called.

PAT
 

me too, first they were abt to call in june, anyway at least things have starting to move ahead

Hi Airb are you NTR FO? I waiting from 1y and some months and next update sept...

Me too, still swimming. NTR FO.

lots of abbreviations in this thread,hard to catch it.

BTW,I'll have my interview on Aug for the A330 FO position,anyone knows what the technical questions and the what subjects we will do in the SIM?

Maybe somebody has asked already,but I still like to have some renewed info..

I appreciate

Is there any possibility for a320 type rated FO to be assigned to another fleet after successful interview? I have heard a320 roster of QR is extremely heinous.

A friend told me, there was a goat lost in JFK yesterday (July 4th). Probably a training flight.:}

Does anybody know when they're gonna be hiring NTR Fo's again ? :)

General Info
 

For those of you wondering about NTR FO. I went into Flightdeck Recruitment last week asking about a friend of mine who is trying to get an interview (He is NTR for QR fleet). They told me that they do not expect to open up NTR FO interviews until next year, but that was only an estimate.

As for those applying for A320. Rosters have been getting better. There is hope on the horizon. This month average is around 70-75hrs and 120-140 duty hours (STBY/Reserve Days inclusive) and 10days off.

I don't know anything about the plans for SO's.

Good luck to all those applying and interviewing.

Hi! Do you have any info about NTR FO in the holding pool?

NTR FO
 

NTR FOs are being called up.i guess few are joinng on 18 aug I suppose

Hi, do you know how many hrs had this NTR FO?

if u check out this thread, u will find him within 5-6 pages.i don't rem his hours.gud luck

Ciao, did you have the ADAPT test? 2 weeks ago Qatar managment did a meeting with crews member, they reported that in the next 5 year they will need 2000 pilots and they are changing the rules to upgrade FO to Cpt position, they will set 2 years from First Line Ck in Qatar fleets...no bed! Do you know in wich plane this pilot will start in August and wich is the caming plane?

Living the dream ...one nightmare at the time!
But bit of a bold conclusion considering QR is constantly hiring DEC!

Managment knowns how to agitate the carrot in front of the donkey's nose in order to keep him happy.:E
