Initial test 6th July
 
Hi,

was just wondering if anyone else was attending the initial test on the same day as myself?
I'm flying over to HK from UK on the 1st July (to avoid being jet lagged on the day!!). Hope to see you peeps there.

Hey, I am taking the tests on July 6th too. Coming from Canada

hi Binbin, when did you submit your application? and did they give you any interview prior to asking you to fly to hk? (I 've heard from long time ago they interviewed people locally first before sending them to hk)

And where did you do your training if any?

binbin 17th Jun 2009 01:05

I submitted my application back in March, and got a reply in a week.

I did not have any interview before. They just ask me to take the initial tests in HK.

Hi guys, I just have a quick question. Do CX pay or subsidize your flights from your home town to HK? Ive tried to find out but with no luck so far. Thanks

are local applicants accessed separately from the overseas applicants in the interview??

teeeee 29th Jun 2009 07:38

any girls on board? :) ( i asked because i'm one, just out of curiosity)

CXCPP 29th Jun 2009 13:48

Dan, if you think CX are bad in making applicants pay their own way to HKG for stages 1-3, how about this!?...QF not only make applicants pay their way to Sydney, they offer a 'special' fare, but cheaper fares can be found on their own website (so they're obviously profiting from applicants), they charge you to do the psychometric testing (and won't let you see your own result, even when you paid for it!), charge you to undertake the medical, charge you for the security checks, make you pay for the course if you are selected...then upon completion, make you find your own work placement to build up hours before they even consider hiring you.

So three self funded flights to Hong Kong seems insignificant when you get an all expenses paid education and pretty much guaranteed SO position with a 'billion dollar airline'...QF actually made a billion dollar profit, not turnover, but PROFIT the past couple of years and supposedly can't support the young guys and girls who want to fly...the backbone of the industry it is in!
