Qatar Airways Pilot Recruitment Nework!

[lookin4better]

Sounds cool...thanks for the info.

Is EK planning to hire again soon? Or are they still on a hiring freeze?

 

[Bull]

Tehran, Peshwar, Islambad, etc are all turns for EK. Basically, anything in the middle east and the subcontinent are turns for us. Security is fine. Hotels are nice. As always though, you have to be aware of your surroundings, regardless of where you are.

Yes, expats fly them.

Yes same for Qatar Airways aswell.

Do they operate the 747-4?

Do they operate the 747-4?

No. But as I understand it, anyone with "good" Boeing time gets placed on the 777. If you have largely Airbus time you would likely go to the A320/330. So, you would likely get the 777 off the bat.

Regardless I think you should REQUEST the 777 because you are most current on that fleet. Just request it and see what they say...

There are other 777 operators hiring (some sporadically) like Korean and maybe Etihad (and EK at some point in the future). Trained and experienced 777 pilots must have some value...

They have direct entry captain minimums published. Are they only hiring first officers now? Thanks a lot.

What is the story regarding the e-mail submission of the application. The published e-mail is returned as an invalid address. I know from other forums others have this issue as well. So far I have not found an definative answer. Is snail mail the only way in?

What's Qatar's pay for FO years 1-5? I have heard $6500 to $10000 per month.

 

[Bull]

Basic F/O Pay

Basic Pay is 5K a month on all fleet. Add another 2K- 4K for flying hours. If you are flying close to 100 hours then you can expect a check around 9K but average line is 70 to 80 hours so expect around 6K to 8K, again depending on how much you fly. No reserve months here, everyone gets few stand by reserves build in to line every month. Hope this helps.

Are they still accepting applications? I sent mine less than 2 weeks ago but no response yet. I have heard they are wrapped up until Jan/Feb.

Do you know if they are recruiting DECs or is every newhire a first officer? Thank you

How long to get a response?

Typically how long does it take them to get back to you with a response? I sent mine about 2 weeks ago also and haven't heard anything back from them as yet. Also, this application, does it give you an invite up to the roadshow or do they invite you out to Doha to interview?

 

[NEDude]

A friend who is a captain over there says that recruitment is going strong and will be for the forseeable future. This was as of last weekend.

Did you send it snail mail or via email?

 

[Smash312]

Did you send it snail mail or via email?

I sent it to them both ways. Got the emails out and then got one sent out to them USPS and..... yes, I guess it should have been with them by now. The guy at the post office said a week (max). Could anyone shed a little light?
