Hi guys,

I have just submitted my application via e-mail around 5 days ago.
Reading through the many threads on this subject I have come to varying conclusions about the time some are waiting to get a response.
What I wanted to know was, does anybody who's been successful at selection, or, had an interview think it's any better mailing it via snail mail as well?

Best regards

WB

Hello Wingbar
 
I dont know this for sure but, I mailed my application via FedEx and it worked compare to my buddy who emailed it and he is still waiting for his reply. but then again I know ppl did get an interview by just emailing the application. If I were you I would do both mail and email.
GoodLuck

I have Boeing 757/767 time, but no Airbus or 777....yet!!

I think you hit the nail on the head. Maximum spread on ALL channels may work.

You Australians know everything. :}

1.5 month wait for interview invite, no experience on fleet, curious as to which aircraft might be offered if hired. Sent app Fedex.

NEDude 14th Oct 2009 23:24

Sent my app in early Septmber via US postal service. Received invite for November interview before Sept 30th.

What currency do they pay you in? Do you have a choice?

Royalblue 15th Oct 2009 03:03

Congratulations to everybody who got invited. Now its time to get to the point guys...... Give some more info about the interview!!!:ok:

jmc08 15th Oct 2009 11:35

Hi Everyone!!! I got a job interview on December 7, any information or anyone else who is going to doha the same day!!!

Regards

NEdude:
They pay you in Qatari riyal: no choice.
But if you are from US..lucky you, because the riyal is peg to U$ at a fix rate:
1U$=3.65 QR...so you will not be affected by the Crash of the Qatari riyal(following the U$)...like a lot of us here!
Huge lost for some of us...!:ugh:Not fair IMHO..but nothing done so far by the company to protect us against this fluctuation....(ERP is a joke).

NEDude 15th Oct 2009 14:21

Hey guys, thanks for all of the info thus far.

Some more questions.

Aside from "Ace The Technical Pilot Interview" and following some of the links to the JAR testing questions, what else is good for the interview? Do they want you to know about the nation of Qatar, the history of the airline, stories from your flying past?

Approximately what is the "pass" rate? I know things like this change all the time, but any guess on the ratio of interviewees to job offers?

Third, assuming it goes well, how long from the interview to getting the good news, and how long from the good news to starting class, and how long from starting class to the first paycheck.

Thanks again to everyone.

Almendrudo 15th Oct 2009 15:27

NEDude,
You took the words right out of my mouth. I have exactly the same doubts.
I would add that I sent my resume 1.5 months ago and so far I have no news from them. I have 4000TT, 1600 jet ( half corporate half airline ), no airbus experience.
I sent my resume via email.
:sad:

November 4th Interview
 
I am attending to the interview in Doha next month. Anyone got that date too? PM plz

Valdemort 19th Oct 2009 06:10

Guys
Don't worry , QR r very short of FOs , the problem is not be able to interview the number they should .
I advise you guys to give a look in ETOPS regulations , AWOPS , RNAV , and some manuvers , like Windshear , EGPWS etc. Off course the Ace interview book.

Good luck ...:ok:

northern boy 19th Oct 2009 12:09

Bit hit and miss IMHO. Applied by email and post at the start of September. Nothing at all, not even a PFO. I've got 5000hrs on Boeings including 4000 on Heavies and 8000 total. Congrats to all who were successful. I've given up waiting.

varigflier 19th Oct 2009 13:05

You should be getting something soon. It takes an average of 6 weeks to get an invitation.
