QF mainline recruitment?
GoNorth,
Was the person given a start date or do you mean that he/she has progressed to the next stage in the recruitment process? Can you give us anymore details re what aircraft and course date??
Cheers,
Alto

Course dates?
Nunc est bibendum
Sources suggest 8-12 starting on each course in Jan and Feb. Types to be classic and 744 (duh- as if the 767 would be taking any!). I haven't heard of anything beyond that!

Anyone have any idea's when they'll need FA's?
Ive been on the "shortlist" for over 12 months and am getting a bit tired of waiting!! And sick of hearing they're hiring cheap labour Kiwi's and Thais!!!
Any news on Aussie recruitment would be much appreciated!

Waiting Sux - Agreed.
Given that they are about to start up psychometric testing and interviews again, is it reading too much into it that they are anticipating requiring more pilots than are currently on the "hold file"? I hope so!

You'd have to think so OBNO! But i think they always like to have plenty more on hold than they actually need, so they can skim the better ones off the top 
Which is great news if you're not that competitive!

EPIRB,
If as you say there is no longer a points or "ranking" system in place, why would there be people (myself included), who were reference checked prior to the halt in recruiting last year, that are now being jumped by candidates who were interviewed after us, if not that their applications are more competitive than ours?

I was talking about those that are selected. Once you are considered suitable, they hold your name until a slot comes up. I believe what happened in years gone by was that you were considered acceptable and were allocated a certain amount of points. Then you could be pipped if someone else came along with a higher amount. You would be on hold for two years and if not offered a slot would have to reapply.
The fact that you were referenced checked is no doubt a good sign but does not necessarily mean you are to be offered a position. Keg maybe better able to answer your question.
