When I applied for Type rated captain, my 737NG hours counted. I see they've now been deleted for all those in the same position.

I still have an FO application in and that's still "under review", a month later. When do most people hear from QR?

Requirements for the DEC Type rated Boeing changed. 737NG hours were accepted, this has been removed now, as you can see on their careers website.

Hence why the Captains application says screened and can't be withdrawn I guess. Ho hum, FO it is then.

I know it's a piece of string, but roughly how long under review to phone call?

AFAIK, you must have no pending training bonds from former employees when joining QR. They even ask for proper documentation (release letter).

Thanks ! Good to know :ugh:

787 Ground School and Simulator Training
 

Brief question: Where are the initial training and simulator sessions taking place (787)? Doha or abroad? Thanks.

The last friend of mine who went to the 787 did his inital training in Singapore... To tell the truth, I think all them went to Singapore at first(787 fleet). There's an Alteon Training Center there !

What I heard is that the inital training abroad is much more relaxed than the one "in the house".

Yes not accepting NG hours now for DEC, if you are in the training system you "maybe" ok, if you have a DJO as a Captain, based on NG hours but didn't start the training probably change to FO. No outstanding bonds accepted. 787 training in Singapore.

For Boeing training you have many options:

1) In house in Doha, STAR course mostly.

2) Gatwick or Singapore, Full Course with Boeing instructors then QR OCC back in Doha.

3) Same as above, but short course with QR instructors.

Regarding DEC coming from NG, for as much as I know they just closed the application. If you have passed the assessment you should be ok on the 787.

The latestpilotjobs advert (today) for TR Boeing Captain states;

Silver68 is correct, latestpilotjobs site says 737NG
Avenger is correct, Qatar website doesn't include the 738NG

I would guess Latestpilotjobs is using a old advert

Avenger, as I said in my first post, the advert was on todays latestpilotjobs website. I'm aware of the what the Qatar recruitment page says.

A few people I know recently did the QR selection and used The AirlinePrep App from AirlinePrep's website. They said it was very comprehensive with all the feedback questions.

Hi guys,

I'm just reposting my old post which hasn't been answered.

Any kind soul around to share the entry salary breakdown for an A320 FO ?
I haven't been invited yet in Doha so I don't know what they offer.

Thx ;-)

Roughly 25k QAR plus 104QAR per block hour + housing.

Thank you very much @APU_inop ;-)

Hi guys,

I had a stomach surgery on feb 2016, and I didn't fly for 3 months because of the surgery, does that mean I cannot apply for the A320 captain position since in the listing it says "Hold a current LPC and has flown the A/C in the past 18 months prior to joining Qatar Airways"

Thanks

You intepreted it wrong.

"Hold a current LPC and has flown the A/C in the past 18 months prior to joining Qatar Airways" means that your last flight on the aircraft should've been no more than 18 months from present days. So if you're currently flying the A320 you can apply without problems.

Got it, thanks Lepo

Medical Clearance
 

You best make sure that you have a medical clearance certificate that addresses your surgery.

A few posts ago, a response to FO pay...how about CA?
Thanks everyone!

CA around QAR 35,000 + 138/hour + housing.

Hi, I'm currently going through the Ctc mpl for Qatar, does anybody know what salary for a SO is please and how long it takes to upgrade to FO? Cheers

Under Review
 

Hey people.One Question. My application has been Under Review statues over a month. Has Anybody experienced that?

Britcjd

There is a thread in interviews forum. I think you'll get a better response there.

Good luck and give it your best shot.

Black pudding check PM thank you

Thank you black pudding

Any news about how much pilots they need for the rest of this year?

I feel like they are not in a hurry anymore to hire people, but then again would it affect assesment passing rate anyway? Since they have the whole pool system with the waiting going on and they can leave people on standby before joining the company.

True
 

Yes sir ,the best time to apply at the beginning of the year , not after june
Because what i heard 75% before June and 25% to end of the year
Right now they have few seat available for Boeing

In my case i am rated on Airbus 320, more than 11000h as F/O . Flew 320, 330 and 340. But i would like to change for Boeing. You think that i can have chances for it?

When you're invited for the interview in Doha, doe the company pays ticket and hotel there. Eventualy you fly on Business class?
What has been the themes, in the group interview?
What are the manouvers in the simulator?

They usually tend to keep you in the same fleet you're type rated, but it all depends on their needs at the moment of hiring. Honestly, nowadays chances they place Airbus guys on Boeing fleet and vice-versa are low, but it has happened before.

Company pays for flight ticket and hotel. Meals are not included.
Ticket is a confirmed economy class with business upgrade depending on seat availability.

Detailed info about the screening can be found on previous pages in this topic and also on latestpilotjobs.com.

11k hours as an FO, dude?! Are you serious? Sorry for my naivety. And you still want to move to another Boeing right seat?, where you will accumulate another 5k hours probably to move to the left?!:ooh::ugh:

I felt the same. I think, you'd better keep your current type to be well-experienced or stay experienced, and wait to be upgradred to the commander position. Man, 11K hours you're talking about ! :uhoh:

Headsets
 

Does anybody know if I can wear my own headsets (DC, Bose, etc) or is it only allow the headsets that Qatar provides you? Or installed in the flight deck.
Thanks

Hi, what's the expected wait to hear from QR after applying? 1100 hr 737 NG FO.

Re: headsets
 

Only headsets installed may be used
