Hi everyone,

I have heard from my friend working with QR that If you used to work with Qatar, you'll not able to apply to Emirates or Etihad for 1 year. Is that true? And do you know why?

Thank you very much.

Hi everyone,

I just have a question for the forum. Does anyone know what the maximum age limit is for Qatar Airways and Emirates at the time of application for CC. Thanks

congrats call

Hi everyone

I got my golden call and also email from Qatar Airways at 7:30 this morning! I can't believe it, had given up hope as it has been so long. I really nervous about the move.
Have a question or people. I know there are some people on this thread who have also recently had acceptance from Qatar. Has anyone got long term boyfriend? I've been with my boyfriend and I'm nervous about leaving him as I want it to work ut long term. Any advice?...

Congrats to all of you !
Jetstreamhoney, the best way to keep your relationship with your boyfriend is to get married and see if he can find a job in Qatar aswell !

yup get married come to Doha then go back home forever!
no you can't marry before 3yrs, its in the contract! Unless you get married and don't tell them, however if he does come to Doha then sooner r later they'll find out, and then it would get messed up.
i heard you can request flights, so may be you can ask for your country's flight, then you can meet every month! I hope it works out.

Hi! Hope someone can clear this up.

How come airlines advertise that their minimum height requirement is 5"2 and 212cms arm reach but those who go to ADs report that the marker for reach test is actually 215-217cm. Even agencies advise applicants about this. Even EK does this. Hope someone can clear up who came up with 5"2 and 212cms requirement if it's not really being followed.

Thanks.

arabellamiller & jetstreamhoney

@arabellamiller: you don't need to do ECG during pre-medicals??? It's weird, we had to do it 3-4 months ago. It must be a new rule...Lucky you!

@jetstreamhoney: We were 20 girls in my batch: 2 girls already married, 2 engaged, 11 had boyfriends (some of them have been together for many years), and only 5 girls were single.
I don't know how everyone will manage their relationships, but if you are from UK (hopefully London) and your boyfriend also, you have a high chance to meet him a lot, because QR is flying to London every day. Even if you don't bid for London, you'll get a London flyight every month, 99%!
If you are married, that's a better situation, because your husband is officially your family member, so he can get discounted tickets after you finished your 6 months of probation.
Don't be afraid, if you love each other, if your relationship is stong, you'll make it, and find the way later on to meet!

Hey they said at the interview that you have to be 20... Go anyways just incase...

hey, i have a boyfriend aswell. & Im from canada and Qatar does not even fly into canada...... So I am nervous about are relationship aswell. He is actually from Libya tho... He does go home sometimes so hopeing we can figure something out.... I just had my final interview on monday... Im now waiting the 2 weeks for an email............ I am nervous though because i had a scar on my leg, but scars can be covered up with panty hose .... I have no tatoos or moles or anything just that stupid scar on my leg from a cat scratching me... If this scar ruins my chances, that cat better watch out.

@Jetstreamhoney

Well done!!! That's great news! Did they say when you are 'tentatively' booked to fly? Now there is more waiting with the medicals unfortunately!

It is a bit of a bitter-sweet thing getting the job and being separated from your boyfriend. I can't relate to this as I'm currently single but if you want my advice, you have to take the job!! It is a one off opportunity and like some one else said, if you and your boyfriend are strong enough, you will find a way to make it work! Try not to let it worry you.

Good luck with the next stage! Hope the meds go fine and hoping to see you in Doha at some stage!

teefly, dont worry about your scar.. I'm sure that with tights it is hardly noticeable. I have a 1cm scar just below my collarbone. I pointed it out at the FI and also declared it on the medical form. So far, no problem!!

scar

If your scar was on your face, you should be worried. On your leg?! Forget about it!

Good luck with the relationship, though.

Hi Gemma,

I was at Manchester interview and got my call yesterday too! Did you have your email on the first or second day?? I am still waiting for the email from them with the info about the shorter medical and the offer of employment letter. I will give them a call cos its turning out to be such a pain to get it sorted.

To Celestine

I have the same doubt! .__.
Everybody on the AD in POA was saying that the marker was way above 212! Thats not fair ;_;

Now, I'm doing stretching all day like crazy! LOL
=D

But I am sad, now I'll have to wait until they come to South America again!
They should say whats the height they're looking for.

Also, I would like to thank from the bottom of my heart to everyone that makes posts here with tips and advices. You guys helped me so much!
Thank you, thank you! <3

Scar

@teefly

Hi teefly

I forgot to say to you that I also have a scar on my neck. I pointed it out in the interview and they could hardly see it so they said it wouldn't be a problem. But my Doc did say it on my med form anyway. I believe MAC Face and Body Foundation is great for covering scars if needs be!

Good luck!
