Question

just called again the Flight Crew Recruitment, talked to some lady who seems to be just taking phone call messages. Apparently only the specialists/Managers know of the results and they seem to be on duty travel these days. She told me to call back August 29th.
Another long wait , or is she just putting me off?

Actually they are doing 2nd interviews for SOs this week in HK.
The office is basically empty.

Try again Monday; they'll all be back at their little desks.

Just returned from a holiday. just found out that I made it through the first interview. No date yet for the second, must have something to do with the delayed delivery of a freighter aircraft.

DEFO 1-5 August Paris results

Hi,

I was in Paris on the 3rd Aug. for the initial FO interview, I called HK at Flight Recruitment on monday 15th and found out they just got the results, so they´re available .

I passed it , but couldn't tell me any final date for the second one, she said it should be in December.

I would be pleased to be contacted by someone who passed it too for some info exchange.

So, call there for the results and.....good luck everyone
