I dont think so they are busy with HKID holders in all level. If they would recruit just HK pilots then could mention it on their advertisement that they need just HKID holder.

Not sure if the long course is closed FOREVER. but if it is true that the immigrant department not issuing visa is the cause, it is unlikely they will reopen in the short future. I think it makes sense for them to deal with applications from HKID holders first because cathay can save a looooooot fo money for not having to aid ppl's housing...

CX isn't paying housing to any new joiners, only a pittance of a "Hong Kong Allowance" - HKD10K/month.
"captain" weird, the HK Immigration Dept has stopped granting visas to low time cadets (rightly so). It's permanent until a change of government policy dictates otherwise.
Jeez Louise, how many people do you need to tell you the same thing? It's in this thread about twenty times. Mss the boat, did ya?

Hey all,
Just been preparing for my ab-inito in HK.
I am pretty confident with the technical quiz and personal interview but according to the e-mail the flight recruitment sent me, there is another interview which consists of 45 minutes of technical questions.
Does this mean the whole 45 minutes they will be asking me technical questions? That seems overwhelming for someone who has 40 flight hours on a Cessna 172 and puts some pressure on me to know all the stuff in the booklet they sent me.
45 minutes of non-stop questions is kind of insane!
Anyone else went through this interview? Were all the questions based off of the booklet they sent you?
Thanks in advance!

@Brandon8,
I am preparing my 1st round interview in YVR as well. and i believe the email stated that the technical quiz is 45 minutes long and the personal and technical interview combined is an hour long. The interview is based on a lot more than the JKI booklet. and also, i'm just wondering when and where is your interview?

My interview is in Hong Kong. I think we will have different interviews as the e-mail I received stated that I will go through:
Technical Quiz
Personality Test
Abstract Reasoning Test
Personal Interview (45 min)
Technical Interview (45 min)
The interview is based on a lot more than the JKI booklet? What else are we supposed to know?
I know the company itself pretty well, the fleet, and the engines but I don't expect the technical to go too in-depth for ab-inito interview..... It is supposed to be for people with no experience with flying at all.
I understand we need to know the basics but not too in-depth?
How are you studying, ocanadaperfect? What else are you doing besides the JKI booklet?
Cheers!

oh wow we do have a different schedule. since i only have limited time, i'm just gonna touch on the basics for all the technical stuff. so i guess when they ask a question, i would at least have heard of it and know the basics of it, maybe not in depth, but i can at least answer the 1st question they ask in that category. At the end, the more you know, it shows that the more you want it.
Do you have absolutely zero flying experience?
And i'm using the book ace the technical pilot interview and preparing for your cathay pacific interview for now.
