Hello Kind souls out there,

I got called up for an interview with HK Airline. Anyone has any idea how's the interview process like ? What about the written exam and the sim check ? what am i supposed to expect ?

I'm going in as first officer, what pay scale would i expect ?

Also, hows rental like in HK? and living in HK ?

Thanks guys!

thanks for ur reply.

so it takes couple months until they give u a reply.

i guess i need to be more patient then

i submitted my application in late Jan, then i dun think i will have any replies until April, i guess.

with thousands of jet experience, ur chance of joining the company is quite high.

thanks for ur reply.

i have close to 1000 hrs but i am raised in hk with Hong kong citizenship.

the reason y i am applying coz these 2 airlines usually gives credits to the locals. they have something called second officer program for the locals.

but a frd of mine who's working there saying there's a lack of training captains, they might not hire any entry level now coz they r focusing on those experience pilot, get them check to the line first before taking any entry level pilots.

anyway, when's ur interview? let me know if u need any help. i can provide u with any essential info.

Flydubai?

I heard that Flydubai will be coming to HK this month to conduct interviews, as 15 or more first officers are trying to go to Flydubai. No upgrade program for HKE or HKA and the money is just not enough. Does anyone know the date for the assesment?
