Dragonair Pre-qualified Cadets
 

helloo

has anyone heard from the Dragonair pre-qualified cadets? got a email about 3 months ago saying they're going to start interviews mid-year but nothing since then.

any info on assessment during the stages will be greatly appreciated also

z

is it gonna be similar to teh short-course at CX?? There's seem to be not enough advertisement about the short course....at the moment everyone's just guessing. :rolleyes:

News of interviews / sim ride coming up late July / early Aug.

Anyone else got notified ?

yep 28th for me what about u reverse flight?

5th August for me. Anyone know any details of what is involved in the first interview?

Zanski, heard the news from one of my mates.

Isn't Dragonair CPP only for HK citizens?
Dragonair - Careers : Flight Crew Position____

the requirements on this link show this way..

yep thats right hk citizens only

I have a feeling sooner or later it's gonna change just like Cathay~~:}

Obviously nothing is impossible, but I don't think KA will need to look outside HKG for cadet pilots. The company currently don't need as many pilots as Cathay, nor do they have as many incoming aircraft or route expansions either. I also don't think the company itself has the resources to conduct interviews for expatriate applicants. Unless there is a major exodus of pilots from Dragonair, it is hard to see them resorting to recruiting expatriates for their CPP.

That being said though, a turn in the rumour mill is indicating cadet pilot intake will increase next year.

i am doubting why Cathay need so many pilots?

Hopefully it doesn't open up internationally too soon...no offense to those people who want it to. Looking to go for KA if i don't get though CX again my next try :)

for those who has completed the assessment .

could you briefly tell us what it consists of??

thanks guys.

Your info is incorrect. It's happening right now.

ReverseFlight,

Where do you see that they are accepting Expatriate Cadet Pilots? Their website still states that applicants need to have a permanent HKID.

I meant KA won't need to open their cadetship to people without a permanent HKID.

Before you fall off your chair, I didn't say they are accepting, just conducting interviews. Read the thread carefully.

BTW, what's a Class 1 medical "without restriction" ? Is the need to wear glasses a restriction ?

ReverseFlight
 

Thanks for your contribution to this thread.

Are you saying they are conducting interviews with expatriates? On the application, they ask to provide a HKID number before continuing...

ReverseFlight,

I meant "accepting" as accepting applications and not accepting to the program.

i submitted the application last week.

i still heard nothing else from them

i am quite anxious.

anyone is in the same situation as i do?
