Emailed me last Monday. Aircraft type, base, and start date will be notified late february.

PoleDriver 22nd Feb 2008 02:56

...email also said the expected start date not before August. Wish they would hurry up and hand out offers, the HR dept must be overloaded. Anyone know why so long....offers last year went out a lot quicker, maybe the jungle jet? I was told 50/50 as to type which doesn't help:rolleyes:

...and guys how long ago did you all apply before you got notified for an interview??

PoleDriver 22nd Feb 2008 22:41

I applied 2005, but it probably bears little relevance now given the heady highs of recruitment;)

Does anyone know if anyone has missed out after thier interview in the last six months or so?

machrider 6th Mar 2008 07:21

Heard today that next major interviewing will not be until June / July this year... Also heard that 73 recruitment will continue steadily but the numbers will slow significantly as the e jet ramps up recruitment to meet its crewing needs - that is assuming of course that they get people to fly it on the current package... I know a few that are planning to interview to see if they are to be offered the 73 and if not will persue qf/cx or jq...

Still waiting very patiently. :ugh:

tipan13 7th Mar 2008 00:13

I is taking for ever.........the longer I wait the more Jungle Jet nightmares I seem to have!!!!!
I hope they call today:ugh:

tipan13 10th Mar 2008 04:45

Has anyone got an offer yet?

Close to 8 weeks since interview and no start date, base etc....
Is it common to wait this long?

jay700 10th Mar 2008 05:15

I interviewed late January, Got an e-mail approximately 2 weeks later saying I was successful. However still no word on start date, aircraft, base etc. :hmm:

tipan13 10th Mar 2008 05:19

Yeah got the same email....
I cant understand why it is taking so long to get back to us!!!!!
Did they give you any idea as to when they would get back to you?

I have a mate who got confirmation he was accepted back in Late August / September & he's over in Melbourne doing the 737 endorsement right now.

jay700 10th Mar 2008 17:39

Tipan,
I probably got the same e-mail as you did. All they really said was not to expect the official letter of offer before the end of Feb and class date would be after August.

As for some tips on the interview…. be yourself and be relaxed. Know your climb gradients from the CAO’s, ETOPS and high speed aerodynamics including winglets. Make sure you are proficient with NDB intercepts into a hold.
