apparently KA ignores overseas applicants, well not really ignore but unless you've mentioned in your cover letter saying that u'll be in hk from blah to blah, they won't give you a reply. I've sent my apps in for KA in march and still heard nothing.

I know a guy that i met during CX's interview...overseas applicant as well that did everything he could to chase up his apps (e.g. fax, phone, email like heaps of times) and then he got an interview.

well don't quote me on that i could be wrong but that's pretty much what's happening here

grrrrrr

cheers

I was told by the HR lady that there are many candidates has PPL already, (so forget it, there won't be any advantage no matter how many hours you got.)
CPL, you may stand a slight better chance, but again, it depends on what other stuff you got, IR, multi or both.

I was told by the KA HR lady, she said most candidate has PPL already, so that's doesn't really make you stand a better chance.

Last year was their first trial on Pre-Quilify Cadet,
Requirement simular to Cdt program, except require CPL and 200 hours.
Same selection process, and training will be 3 months only.

Hi everyone,

After reading a few posts, I found out that Cathay and Dragonair have a agreement about applying to each other programmes. Does anyone know if it's appicable to the CPP? Do I need to know know to read and write chinese in order to apply?
