Underneath The Radar,
Mate have another read of the deed. It clearly states that if QF arent happy with you and dont offer you employment at the completion of GFS, no bill will be given to the applicant. i.e. in the case that they dont want you, you dont need to pay the money back. You only need to pay it back if you withdraw on your own accord or leave before the four year bond is completed.
Cheers.

Mr Cat,
Thanks for the info - as I said - haven't actually seen the paperwork.
Krusty - likewise - as 'rosy' as the QL scheme seems, I'm just being naturally cautious!

UTR.

Sounds great but will they take people over 30?
I would say there are a few people out there who are a bit more experienced in life and are above the minimums required.
Has anyone of the mature variety been asked for an interview yet??

I highly doubt that they would not hire you after going through the psychometric, sim and interview process to finally be accepted. I think they choose people who show that they are capable of achieving and passing the QLink standard. From what I have heard so far, everyone has passed and the first course are near completing the ground school for the Dash 8.
See you third batch boys on the 5th May.

I've just turned 30 and plan to apply once I've met the minimums and plan to do MECIR and ATPLs ASAP (July or so). Would my age count against me much? I know there is no absolute answer. Of course the younger you are OFTEN the better your chances are but just wondered if people knew something I didn't in relation to the QL traineeship.

Dear mr Matt J
Hey matt
I wouldn't worry too much about age. They're more looking for people with the right skills and personality etc. My advice get your ATPLS's and MECIR ASAP....can't think of any more acronyms.DAMN!

From the sounds of it age won't be an issue, if anything very little importance compared to the way you present yourself/personality etc. Interesting though because the photo of the 1st lot that got in all looked under 25 and some looked under 21.

BF - there was a reasonably concise post on page 4 of the thread which should answer your question. Practice your maths and reading comprehension as much as you can. Also, go to the Qantas web site and track down their psychometric practice leaflet - just concentrate on the maths and verbal only - that will give you a taste of what to expect.
LB - it should be in the vicinity of 10-14 days.
Good luck!
