The email address with the correct spelling of ‘dragon’ works fine, the spoof address was probably the first phase in filtering out the no hope candidates (if you can’t spell the company name then you really don’t belong). Good luck to all!!!!!!!

by the way when was PQC prog introduced for NON-HKID.
and when we can expect an invitaion, any idea???

The programme is open for international applicants from April. I heard there will be no invitation for PQC in the next several months.

No invitations even for HKID holders?

@Remus T
 

but if they have started it, then they should be calling us (obviously HKID will be on priority).
I don't get it. Your starting a program but your not calling....???? :confused::confused::confused:

P.S. - there are people (HKID) being called for Initial Assessment for PQC on 4rth and 5th may!!

Yes, but FYI some got rejected due to no time slot and they won't conduct any interviews for PQC in the next few months.

I am just curious, how many PQC has KA taken up to this point in 2012?
What kind of flying experience do those people have? (hours, piston/turbine, etc)

Thanks for answering anyway:ok:

Is there any acknowledgment after sending in your details?
How did you guys do who had interviews this week?!

Nope! no acknowledge mail!!


same question from my side. Anyone hear who has attended the assessment would be kind enough to share his/her experience.

Sorry about my late reply was away from hk.

I have made it to the icao English test and will have my tech interview on 13/6 and sim on 15/6.

Any tips about the icao? Is that normal KA submit your license conversion application after the first interview??

Btw I have just about 254 hours!

@ lkcmss2000
 

Congrats on that!!!! Best of luck for the the tech and sim part.... do let us know how it went.
by the way can you please tell us what did they ask in your initial interview?

I just had my Icao today and that was awful! Paraphrase was difficult... Other parts is ok but I didn't use too many difficult words just normal ans... The assessor was speaking so quick....I couldn't catch up with his speed... I dot think I pass I will need miracle to pass it.....

Initial manly foucs on my resume really! How I got my licnese where I got my licnese your family status who pay for your trainning etc... Nth really special to be honest! One thing i couldn't ans was the pilot roster which is 5 on 2 off or 4 on 3 off something like that! Couldn't remember all the question but this is what the interview all about basically.....

Still waiting for the icao result and I dont have too much hope on it....

Thanks for the idea mate...

any idea to when will they resume with the non-HKID people???

No idea mate!

I know some foreigner got called for interview the other day!

I failed the icao so I will hv to do it ag.... Anyone know how long will they normally let you retest??

Thanks!

did anyone receive the auto mail today (addressed to non-HKID people)????

Yesi heard from one of my frd who is non hkid applicant got the email from KA saying there is limited position and he will have to wait. Does that mean even hkid applicant will be affected as well? I still gotta wait for my icao retest....

I can't say about that mate. Guess, its just waiting game.

I assume that this is the email that you are talking about:

@runway07

Check inbox runway07

Any update here ppl??

There's a good hotel in Lockhart rd Wanchai, it's only 200hkd.....oh wait, sorry that's an hour, my bad :E

I have done the cpp the 1st 2 rounds this year and so far i havnt heard from them.. i guess i should start re-applying the CPP again for next year :sad:

they still havnt called so i assume i didnt get the interview.. have any of you guys get a call yet?

Unfortunately they have stopped hiring Pre-Qualified cadets.

PQC
 

It's not true that KA has stopped hiring Pre-qualified cadets. There are at least a dozen of people currently under the interview process. As far as I know, the first interview is over, and most PQC applicants have taken the ICAO assessment. They are just waiting for the technical interview and simulator check. Cheers~:ok:

Is true... I hv just been told they have no plan interviewing PQC in the near future....

may I asked who told u the PQC recruitment has stopped?

Dragonair Recritment team

Sorry to hear that lkcmss2000, apparently KA has just finished recruiting a few PQC cadets in October. KA doesn't run the PQC recruitment as often as it does for CPP and MPL, just be patient and they will call you once they commence the recruitment again. Good Luck!

So when do you think they will resume the program?

Sorry mate but I don't know the answer to your question. I think you will get the same answer even if you asked KA.

this morning, I received this.. . Any idea please.
