When did you send your application in ?

I only sent mine last week so, I don't think I'll be picked by April.

Good luck though

Let me make this clear before I get tones of PM;
I don't know anything about the contract, upgrade, way of life, etc,etc. with KAL, I'm attending the interview to find out all these.
All I know is they fly blue airplanes

Know a little bit about the salary but that's about it. I'm an expat and it seems we get more than the locals however, they don't give retirement pays.

I don't know anything else about the T & Cs. I guess we'll have to ask current serving expats.

For info IF the same contract companies are being used as for Captains there are 5 that I know of - Rishworth, Euro, IAC, GAP and CCL.

For Captains comparisons Rishworth were the worst payers per month by some US$ 300-400, CCL ad GAP the best.

For those of you going for the interview, had one last month for the NG...

Medical was pretty thorough, they did some tests I didn't know existed.

Sim was fairly straightforward: Normal T/O, followed by VOR approach, all on AP, visual above the minima, then landing with crosswind. EFTO, back for SE ILS and GA, finish with vis circuit. AP can be used pretty much all the way through. RTO, and that's about it.

Interview was low keyed, important thing I was told was to speak slowly and clearly. Why do you want to work for Korean, what do you know about Korean etc

I learnt a few Korean phrases, 'Good morning', Thank you etc etc. They seemed to really appreciate that.
Got offered the position about a month after.

Good luck!
