I just received a rejection notice as well...however, I wasn't even finished with my application! I thought it could be submitted once I had fully entered all the details...I didn't even get to upload my CV.

Alright then...looks like I'll have to build a couple thousand hours and try again in a few years for a direct entry f/o position:-p

Good luck to everyone else.

Its a National programme. Thats the reason you guys got rejected.

I think you're right. There was some confusion initially, because when you look on the right side of Gulf Air's Careers page, under 'vacancies' you can access the Ab-Initio page right away and it does not list any nationality requirements. But if you navigate to that section from the left side of the page, you have to access it under the 'Gulf National' programs.

Ok here s the answer.. This is an National Program and is not meant for other nationals so plz do waste time in filling the application also feel free to apply for direct entry vacancies- Gulf Air HR(over the phone).:}

Does anybody know who I should address my cover letter to at GA in the Pilot Recruiting office? Appreciate any info

ITS FOR NATIONAL just got rejection letter!

got the PFO aswell

Bahraini Nationals Only
 

It seems that Gulf Air have finally realized their little screw up with leaving out a vitally important piece of information on their ab-intio vacancy page that only Bahrainis (god bless them) are eligible to apply.

They've now edited their vacancy page to reflect this - which I was saying all along from the start - It wasn't there to begin with!

Good luck to all you budding red passport holders! :ok:

Time to close this thread.
