Thought maybe we could compare notes and stuff!!

Sydney SO interview
 

Hi guys,

I got a Sydney interview for SO 1st stage cadet ship with CX in July. Is anyone else out there attending around then?

Studying basic technical questions and researching HK, done about 15 hours dual and gone solo. From your experience, does anyone out there have any questions from stage 1 that have been asked recently?

That would be great help :)

Contacts
 

G'day all
I'm trying to follow up my application with Cathay and was wondering whats the best way to go about this? Any emails and/or phone numbers would be great!

Thanks
cosmoc

i will be in HK for the interview on the 15th

SO cadet 1st Interview
 

Hi everyone,

I am also attending the Stage 1 interviews but in Auckland. Would be great if anyone could give some insight into the 1st stage so I have an idea of what to expect.

Thanks guys

I'm also attending the stage 1 interview in Auckland next month.

When they ask about Cathay destinations during the interview, are they most concerned with their own destinations rather than the codeshare ones? The destinations with their own service are annotated with a ^ on the Cathay company website.

Stage One
 

Hi all,

I have been asked to attend the stage one process in AKL next month. Has anyone experienced the latest stage one process or have any insight as to what you can expect?

My invitation states there are four components.

Interview with both Personal and Technical Questions (45mins)

Technical multiple-choice Questionnaire (45mins)

Reasoning Test (45mins)

A Personality Assessment (30mins)

Any idea on what you can expect in each of these exercises would be fantastic. In partiuclar I am interested in the technical questions and the reasoning test, ie the type of question and what the best reference material out there is.

Thanks in advance.

Big_Browna and Eagle 206 when did you guys submit your application?

hey try to mail them in this id "[email protected]"

Has anyone going to the AKL interview received any reading material (JKI Booklet?) yet?

@eagle206 - read the thread. There is a lot of good in-depth information concerning the interviews.

Curious....
 

How many have read "The 49ers - The True Story" by John Warham?

If not, why?

If so, your thoughts considering the career and choices you are making now?

There are now 2 books that any aspiring pilot for CX should read: "Handling The Big Jets" by Davies and "The 49ers - The True Story" by John Warham.

How can you not know where the airline you seek to join is going if don't know where that airline has been? Past behaviour is the greatest and best indicator of future behaviour. Even CX use that technique in your interviews.

think its a bit of useful info cadet should take a look on the company culture and the 49ers episode

they asked me about it when I interviewed in 08.

What do you know about the 49ers?

What do you think?

How should the company have acted in this matter in your opinion?

Its not all about what engines does this aircraft have blah blah blah.

thnx a lot

We are unable to accept your application within a 12 month period of your previous application. If you wish to re-apply for the Cadet Pilot Programme, please do so at the appropriate time.

does it mean i failed my application?

Hi there,

So there have been selections taken in different parts of the worlds. Can't some guys share their experience? We have to put this topic in life again!!
