Sydney Interview dates

Hi guys,

Applied for the CX cadet program with the preference of a Sydney (Aust) interview. Just want to know if anyone has had any news from CX on the Syd interviews?

[Pyromania]

Hi guys,

Just did my IT 2 days ago. Got called yesterday for the AT on Apr 28.
jdurbridge, FelixLo, guys.. can you shed some light on what to expect on the AT? I heard it's controlling a sim with two joysticks and at the same time answering questions popping onto the screen... is that right?
How did you guys prepare for it?

andrewnorris1987: you might want to post your question in the CX board. Probably will get more answers there.

Thanks guys!

Glad to hear you've got through the initial test..

How did you find it? Is the numeracy test that hard?

thx

ps I will have mine on 29/4

[ShinkaiT]

Hi guys~I am going to have my first interview on 30/4

[rmadrid]

ShinkaiT: what time is your interview? mine is at 13:40

[VinnieC]

Anyone else did their Initial on the 19th but still waiting for a response?

[at3105]

Hi ShinkaiT!!
just wonder when did u receive the call for first interview??
Cheers^^

[VinnieC]

The numeric test wasn't hard, but given the time limit time is rather tight and each question is time consuming.

myhitomi:

Thanks!
The numeracy test was not hard, but very very time consuming. I was not able to finish it. I just picked out the shortest ones from each section. This way I would have finished as much as I could.
Some suggested the airline might be trying to see if one can manage their time in answering as many as possible, or one would just drill on one question... Wild guess though, but sounded possible.
Though I wished we had 40 minutes for math and 30 minutes for English. The English test was much easier in comparison.

How are you preparing for AT?

[VinnieC]

Does anyone know the approx call time for overseas application for AT after IT? Today is holiday so I guess it's next week or never

[VinnieC]

Given the AT schedule is 26-29th, if no call on next Tues/Wed, it's safe to say I flunk the IT, which was not hard.....but I flunk it

Well, back to Van to finish up my CPL

KA HR called and re-arranged my HR interview to 7 May...

ShinkaiT: do you have to reschedule the interview as well?

[felixluihk]

Hey guys, just wanted to update you with my progress. I did my HR interview today and was called up to do the ICAO English test tomorrow a couple of hours later.

Here are a few questions I was asked in the interview today:

1) Introduce yourself, then they will ask you for evidence for what you have said about yourself. (i.e. if you say you are a responsible/ reliable person, hobbies you do, etc...)

2) What would you do if you fail to get in the CPP again?

3) What have you done/ improvements have you made since you failed last time?

4) Are your parents supportive?

They were the main topics we discussed in the interview and they did ask a little details about my answers as well. The interview only lasted for about 30 mins in total. I'll post some more questions out if I remember anymore, hope this will help.

GOOD LUCK!!!

VinnieC: Dun give up just yet... i did my IT on the 19th as well and I was called yesterday to have the AT on the 30th so the schedule they gave u are not necessary accurate. Btw r u from Van as well ?

[myhitomi]

Anyone did the IT today like me?
How did you guys find it?

I was able to finish 14 /20 of the maths questions, guessed the rest.
Missed 2 questions in the in-house listening but have written something

Anyone had their Initial test on 19 April or after that already had their first interview?

[Drecian]

kelvinhei007:
Anyone had their Initial test on 19 April or after that already had their first interview?

Here was the timeline that I did my tests in;

Tues April 19th - Initial test
- Called Wed 20th for aptitute test invite

Tues Apr 26th - Aptitude test
- Called Wed 27th for HR interview invite

Thurs Apr 28th - HR interview
- Called Fri 29th for ICAO test invite

Tues May 3rd - ICAO test

I'm an international, so they are probably trying to squeeze everything into a shorter period.

hey, how's your ICAO english test? was that similar to yours last time?

[toey118]

@pyromania

i'm an international applicant and i got called up to do the AT on the same day as u (28/4 - but at 3:30pm), did u end up getting a 1st interview call up?

the guy at the AT told me they would get back to me by phone asap within 3-4 days (and im assuming its 3-4 working days), but the thing is that sunday and monday were public holidays....

so should i have gotten the call back for 1st interview by now? or do i wait another 1-2 days?

its just confusing because on the schedule they sent me, 1st interview is down for May 3rd and May 4th.


cheers,

Toey =]

rmadrid:
Hey, the examiner told me that I passed but I still haven't got any call from KA yet. This is only the first time I did the ICAO english test coz the last time I got this far was in 2008, and they didn't have this test back then. How about you? Any news yet?

mc da king:
Don't worry, my friend did the ICAO about 3 weeks ago and he still haven't been called up for the next stage. He did however, called up KA and found out that he has passed the ICAO but they haven't scheduled the 2nd stage interview. Also, on the KA web, it says that 2nd stage interview would be in May-June and it is only 5/5 today.
