SO Cathay
 
Hi everyone,
Does anyone know what to fill in, into the Cathay Pacific References page..especially the part the says Cathay Pacific References... does that imply a reference from inside Cathay Pacific ?
Thanks for the help.

Yup. They fly you out to hk on their wallet plus hotel nearby hk airport. Based on what I read here. If they do interviews near your home or even inside Canada I think then you will have to arrange your arrival on your own. I think cx is a great legacy company with career path. Remember SO time is worthless anywhere else so if your planing on staying the long run in hk you'll be fine. Nothing for short term in my opinion. Encore or jazz definetly no bad alternatives.

Coool thanks man!

Nope. I guess if you sent docs out of order you simply won't hear from them. I received an email saying " this is to confirm all docs were received" 2 days ago. Since people in here saying this process takes a while I suggest not doing anything the next 3 weeks or so... For how long are you waiting now?

Got an email saying “all documents received”. submitted end of March. Been waiting almost 8 weeks now for an interview... anyone got something similar?

HI sunny_8525
May I ask you as to how long it took for them to give you the first reply after you had filled in the initial online application?

Thanks for the help.

Good for you. Best of luck!!

skychief1994 8th May 2019 15:35

Congrats and good luck to people who have received the interview call. As for people who have been told August 2019 (myself included), would you guys mind if we set up a Whatsapp group to get to know each other and possibly prepare? I'm sure you guys have heard that there is a 777 sim near Toronto that we could all rent and practice on too. The cost is around 150 CAD per hour.

It was strange. I applied last year when the minimum requirement for the application was 750 hours. But they asked me for the documents in March this year. So approximately it took them 6 months. Definitely, it is a very slow process.

To those who had to submit papers on April 7th, if you want, PM me and I can set up the group.

Congrats buddy. Can you tell us how long did it take for Cathay to let you know the interview dates from the time you submitted the documents? And good luck. Hope to see you in HK.

a334 16th May 2019 17:12

Yes I would like to know too as I submitted my docs at the end of March also and i'm still waiting... last I was told by HR when I asked a few days ago was to anticipate a date in August...
