CX SO Interview Prep Notes

Does anyone have the address of that old hotmail account that was in circulation for Cx interview notes?

Anything similar still around?

I've just sent a mail to that adress and I got Delivery Status Notification showing a failure. It seems like :

1°) The adress is not correct
OR 2°) It has been deleted...

Does anyone in here still has de documents on his computer ? I can manage to make them available on the web.

Thanks !

Anyone that went to London on 17/06 heard anything from them yet? I have a feeling no news is bad news!

Now that (RH) has halved the pilots packages with minimal housing I think you'll need to read this to help you get by in Hong Kong ......

Interesting that there was an ad for Oxford Aviation Academy embedded in that link...

This may also be an option:

Back at home, I replied all the PM I got the time I was away. If you don't have the documents, consider there has been a problem, and ask again by PM.

Pay attention : a guy who I sent the documents to told me they were not up to date.

Utter drivel from DB, once again.

Sorry, nothing personal, I'm sure you mean well, but it would seem that you are so out of touch with reality of the aviation world outside of your bubble.

For comparison, I've a mate renting out an 800sqft place in Tung Chung for 11000. After haggling, that's about the going rate there. Is it further out from the centre? Yes, of course it is. Is it easy to get to the central? Yes, moreso than you'll find in pretty much any big city on Earth.

Expect to pay similar rates for the other modern 'expat-familiar' areas out of town - Gold Coast, Park Island, etc. There's a brand new development by the old Kai Tak site, where you'll be paying about 30% more than the above quoted price. Arguably, if you have a partner who works close-in, or plan on eating the cheap and cheerful delights of HK casual dining in Kowloon much of the time, the extra rent price will nigh-on cancel out travelling costs and more expensive casual dining in TC/GC.

Again, those (and myself included) of us who have had a Mid-Levels apartment funded by the company can genuinely out of touch with reality. It isn't normal for all but the wealthiest shareholding partners of law firms etc to live in a nice pad in the middle of London or New York. As working lawyers, accountants etc, we live further out. Once more, the reality is removed from some, because living in the centre of everything becomes the norm. Let's not lose sight of the fact that once upon a time in London, LA, New York, Paris etc, we'd have been delighted to have a 30 minute commute. Not least on a highly efficient, cheap, clean, safe and on-time rail network.

Don't expect anything other than 500ft in the decent parts of the Island for <17k. If you're single, you may be fine with that. For 12-ish, you'll get somewhere quite nice in the further out districts.


Just some food for thought.

Interview Notes

Hi all,
Here are the interview questions which were on this hotmail account some time ago.
I don't think they've changed much, but if, I would be pleased to know about.
As far as I know, also EK uses most of those questions for their interview as well as many other operators...
Good luck!
