Vishwas,

In your earlier post you said u applied in March '12. I assume that is a fresh application on CX website, in that case Wait for ur turn buddy. Long Wait!! I applied in early/mid 2011 and first reply I got was in April 2012. And that also just an email asking for more details! No reply since then.

Sorry to burst all your bubbles. The email sent out asking for an update in details was a SYSTEM ERROR. They WILL NOT hire in India this year again. As a matter of fact, one person went as far as saying we are seriously considering to ever come back to hire in India.
However, few "lucky" ones (at your own expense) have been called to Hong Kong for their stage1.

No system error

Can anyone explain what they mean by a "system error"? Why would the Flight Crew Recruitment reply to individual emails if it was so?.

Guess we are going to have to wait and watch.

flypaul -

There is no such person put in charge for Indian candidates. You can speak to anyone in HR regarding further recruitment.

It certainly looks like you haven't gone through all the pages of this thread. The very same email you received (regarding completing the application form) was sent to some of us who were previously shortlisted for the Stage 2 interview. That my friend, was a total system error. Have you spoken to Meegan or Emily in HR? I think you should. You'll get a better idea. What people write here regarding that particular email cannot be taken into account.

This is what I received in Feb 2012:

Current screenings have been completed for the Initial Interviews of India.

Shall there be a slot available in coming future we will contact you via telephone and email.

Best Regards,
Flight Crew Recruitment
Cathay Pacific Airways

And later during April 2012:

Thank you for your previously submitted on-line application with Cathay Pacific Airways for our Second Officer programmes.

Given this application was submitted some time ago, we ask that if you are still interested in the Second Officer opportunity, to fully complete the attached Flying Experience Requirement form and the Up-date application form.

Kindly complete the attached forms and return by e-mail on or before 12 May, 2012.

Once we have received the completed documents your application will be assessed on interview suitability and competitiveness.

And finally the "Received with Thanks" mail.

Definitely not a SYSTEM ERROR!!!

I'd still try to get in touch with the HR guys in CX for further info.

@3 Green - No.
The first email was an automatic reply. The second one in April was the system error one confirmed by the HR.

@smurf84

@smurf84 I in fact have spoken to Ms Meegan Eeves. I had a few doubts about the flying experience form which we were asked to fill out. So a follow-up from her side does indicate that it was not a "system error". am I right?

its definitely not a system error, its just that the population of fellow pilots is way beyod their capacity to handle. Because i did not even receive any mail to complete any other forms despite of submitting in march '12, also calling them gives you no other answer than to please wait we have so many applications to process..
