qantas S/O-cadetship

Can anybody tell the oldest S/O to be accepted at Qantas? Pretty broad questions I know, but I was just curious if older blokes are getting slots on the programme.

RBS, I asked the same question over the phone to them last week and they told me about their 'worldy' approach to recruitment these days...life skills are important etc...I'm 34 now but I'm going to give it another go....I got knocked out after the testing in 2000. There was a graduate in Adelaide last year who was mid 30's....Fingers crossed!

Cheers, PA

Hi RBS

Met an Ex RAAF guy who got in at 41 - 42 years old. Herc , Macchi and chopper experience. This was 1990.

The same year QF kindly in formed me thay my age for experience was such that I could no longer be considered and to have a " nice life". I was 22 years old.
