what they will ask in interview can u help me plzzz..???

its true it is the five star airline it is strict thats y it is on the top no comparision with Emirates or Etihaad wat so ever if u dont wanna work for it there are thousands application waiting to get a chance n trust me they deserve it so ppl who r talking crap abt Qatar Airways canb leave no need to join probably some one else who deserve it n really needs it will get this beautiful chance y cant u work so hard like donkeys U R GETTING PAID FOR IT much more than the other airlines Thanks to Qatar Airways for giving me a chance to gain such a wonderful experience i was there for 4 years resigned cuz i m married now and expecting 2 but in future looking forward to joing this wonderful 5 star Airline i m proud of QR n offcourse my boss CEO of this airline who made this airline A 5 STAR AIRLINE

whats the first step in applying for them? im curious about the salaries of those working in their offices. i noticed you dont have to be gorgeous and stunning to work there. meaning i have a chance! hahaha

hope everything is solved amicably....

The aviation field is a pressurized industry.Things can very easily fall off the tracks if a certain level of professionalsm and discipline is not maintianed.Perhaps QR has recognised that a certain level of the above is vital to their success...so I say good luck to QR and all of their staff who indentify and adapt to the company culture.It's only natural that those that dont ,wont last-.Perhaps a company with a different outlook to business would suit them better.

Lastly ,"if we were not there when something happend,we should not invent it with our small minds and spread it withour huge mouths."

P.s -....and no...Im not a QR employee :)

Ill go for QR!!! :)

I have applied for a role as Pilot and Female Air Crew checker..

When will I know if I got the job ..

Tell me EK/ EY fly the type of passengers that your OZ airline flies too? If it were about pax and you did your homework, you'd know that QR, EK, EY, GF and all the ME carriers fly the same traffic.

And yes you're damn right QR is strict and that is why it's up there. They don't take nonsense from women who think they can come here to party, report sick for flights due to a hang-over and then bytch about the airline.

I am never like this unless rubbed wrongly and you struck a wrong nerve when you publically mentioned stuff that I preciously told you in confidence in a PM and that too just so that you were not influenced by the negativity. My PM was in no way indecent or vulgar for you to misconstrue it and make mockery of it.

And I said it later in the forum that it's good you decided against it, coz you'll at least let some more deserving person get the job who will be thankful for it.

life is beautiful!! here and there, evrywhere!! Happy and me are numb to feel the pain!

Colt...thats so true... had most of us did take the trouble to look up for how the life in Qatar would be before coming here we wouldnt be hearing never ending rant as to how bad life in this country is...but then sometimes we realise things after we get into it rather than from outside...even if somebody said so.

It's because women like her don't take the time off nor the trouble to look up stuff about the company they're going to interview for.

But yet after they go and waste the interviewers time and money, they brand it as "BAD" just from hearsay... :-(

Actually I do that too when I know that a company is going to reject me.. I start saying ah well the company was shyte anyway, lol...

why the heck did u apply to QA if you know it has a bad reputation?? please dont change ur mind about joining QA..they are better off without people like u...i would never want to get served by a cabin crew like u!!

I'm cool ;-)

And to think of late a whole bunch of OZ's have joined the airline. But this trolley-dolly thinks she's a cut above the rest. Effin racist troll!

Bad reputation, from who? From some of the imbeciles here who can't tell their head from their butt and who don't know what running an airline operation is all about, but yet never cease to put in their two pence worth of bs... and why? "because they heard so".

If it had a bad reputation, QR would not be where it is today. Can you say the same for the Oz airline you're flying for? I have attended numerous conferences wherein a lotta my oz friends desperately wanna get in here, because of the economic situation the Oz airlines are in. Has your airline filed for bankruptcy yet?

It's just a case of sour grapes for some folks over here, who obviously don't know what they're talking. You work when you are required to work and party when you are required to party. unfortunately some of the crew think flying is one big party and that is what lands them in a soup. That is when the bad-mouthing starts.

I'm done talking to you about this and seriously hope you don't get short-listed, simply because you will be a misfit here and also you will ruin someone elses chances who is more deserving of the job.

It's ok Colt.. Glad that she is not coming here.. I don't need another dumb bimbo in Qatar who thinks Australians are in some way superior to Asians as her post suggests.

Dont do it!

Stay in Ozz!

I'm just going to laugh that one off.

You obviously have no idea

Do QA fly to Australia?

Actually the whole population is mostly Asian.. The reason why there are few Australians here is that standing the right way up doesn't suit them ;)

and you just keep proving it over and over again... I'm a possible future employee and you're telling me I'm an ungrateful bytch? a "typical pea-sized brain Trolly Dolly".

If your airline didnt have such a BAD reputation, it wouldnt have been a waste of time or money. There's a reason most of your employees are asian, and there are only a handful of Australians.

Again, you're management, you should not be talking to me or other people the way that you are. Highly unprofessional

[Mod's note:Second Warning! Do not create topics or posts that criticise, bully or insult other Qatar Living members]

Tally every company that asks it's employees to do some work is badmouthed here. Welcome to Qatar

wow... calm down...

I havent heard fro QR because they wont get back to me for another week.

There's no need for the personal insults.

When I went for the job, I didnt realise it had such a bad reputation amongst crew. I wanted some direct feedback from recent experiences.

I dont believe you're in management like you say you are, because if you were, you wouldnt be talking to me this way. Not doing a good job at convincing me I do want the job, if this is the way management treat possible employees

[Mod's note:Do not create topics or posts that criticise, bully or insult other Qatar Living members]

Don't Do IT !

Thank you everyone for your replies!

I actually am already Cabin Crew in Australia, so the training and flying experience is not what I am after.

I think that Colt... apparently being management, and the way they're acting on this thread is enough to confirm my doubts...

You say go, get trained up, if I hate it resign... and pay back the money I will owe?

In Australia we have a saying... go with your instincts... and every part of me is saying DON'T DO IT!!!

Colt is management for QA... pm'd me lol

and she's been with QA for 6 years as an air crew (woman). MAybe when they are in Qatar, the rules is strict (actually, different person, different level of view). But she speaks a lot of things she gets from QA including travel privileges for her parents. If you are committed to your work, you have to follow the rules strictly. No need to complain. As the saying said, go out first and then talk. But what's the need to talk if you're already out!

They are like any other company in Doha

Hi there,

I am also waiting for feedback after an interview in Doha for a Revenue Management Analyst position in QA. After reading this thread I am a little bit discouraged. The same situation for cabin crew applies for office positions also? I would deeply appreciate some feedback from you guys (and girls :) ) if you have any insight info.

Many thanks in advance

Check this thread and your PM in 5mins

lol..ta ra ra ra..

eh..whats this abt a QL meetup?

pssshhh!!!! go back into your corner!

let this company abuse the worforce as much as they want lot of people coming in from nepal india srilanks and other asian countries so nothing is going to change .

Now bolo ta ra ra ra :-))

yes colt ur absolutely right..:)

Why discourage her with all the negativity when no one knows the truth for a fact right?

Like I said in my 1st post, at least she will get trained and gain some experience from it, even if she resigns.

Why wait for EK/ EY, when it's not a given that they will short-list her?

Colt..you seem all charged up this morning..are you or any of your family members working in QA? :P

everyone complains about the organizations they work for..its human nature i guess...but you still find them working there for 10 yrs!! if QA was so bad, then they would not have grown so fast and so popular in such a short time...they have strict rules and regulations, agreed, but if you work for a company, you have to follow the rules.

I disagree that the cabin crew is always working and not resting...I had to go to them when I needed help with the useless bassinet that was given for my 2 month old baby as no one responded to the call bell...

back to the topic..i would suggest that if you are offered a job in QA and the package is good, then go for it. It has a very good reputation worldwide.

"i see the crew they get drunk and also get into trouble ..... all you will hear is complain complain"

Let me guess here, the ones out getting drunk and complaining are the ones getting sacked? No surprise there then is there?

Tally - QR, is the same as EK etc. All the staff are treated the same. even EK have security on the staff accommodation. If there was an EmiratesLiving site you'd most likely get the same complaints on there too. At the end of the day, it's your decision and yours alone. QR are not bad.

Oh yeah, not all passengers are a55holes with the call button, but I guess that applies to all airlines.

I am from all over Bombay - I rule!!! :-P

with you madurai

i am from mahim u

I'm from Bombay, and it's futile to argue with me over this, coz you can never backup your statements with reliable sources :-(

PM me! ;-)

Again I say, if you don't know the management for sure, don't talk about it. All you do is believe hearsay, which according to me is like Chinese whispers (I say can't and you will hear kunt), get my point?

It is because of strict management Qatar Airways is right there at the top and not like Air India or Gulf Air.

Colt defending the honour of QR :P

On a serious note, what you say man. One of my friends is getting an offer from QR too, she is a bit hesitant... Good place to work?

which part of india are you from?

but this qatarairways really take advantage of their employess and no considerastion for them they mabe five star to the passengers but from the inside core of the management and company i think there are 0 i dont think even 0 -100 or even worse i fell these people have no consicense and these people have families here dont they have any consideration towards other human beings

Nothing is gonna change by you feeling sorry. This is how things are in Qatar Airways and it will only get better. Remember it's a 5* Airline.

P.S. - If you think the crew are made to work hard on board, it's because of passengers who are ever so demanding and don't hesitate to hit the "call-bell" for every li'l damn thing!

fell sorry for these people and wht they have to bear as everyone needs a job really sad hope this copany improves or gets new management

I feel sorry for him, but you still didn't answer me how Qatar Airways is responsible for his loan???

All you may have ever gone to is Cloud 9 for "desi night". Well lemme tell you that place sucked BIG time and I'm happy it got shut down. That was crappiest excuse for a bar/ pub, whatever you may wanna call it.

If you don't know what happened to the crew who got hit by the land cruiser, don't talk. Like a wise man once said, "Better to shut it and be thought a fool, than to open it and confirm doubts". I'm not condoning the drivers fault here, but it was more her fault for crossing the road, when she should not have. I heard they have been provided buses from the other side of the road to come across.

And regarding your BS about women complaining to you about working, it must have been your Goan girls only who are used to sitting on the fat of their A and not working, so when they come here and are asked to work, it's a tad too much for them.

he is doing pick up drop work and also doing odd jobs to pay loan

i see the crew they get drunk and also get into trouble as they are under a lot of pressure especially thw women thye are not happy with their jobs i used to have aconversation with them in the club all you will hear is complain complain complain abt the company and resrtriction so much so now whn i go rarerly i saty away or the old story will start again so thats the whole picture.money no hapiness there was also a case where a qatari car hita crew near techinal bldg in airport she was paralysed for life wht happened he got out is in qatar still driving rashly they should have help her out and her family as she was only bread winner they gave her a samll amount and got rid of her this company nt intrested in well being of employees only want to squeeze work out of them after drinking lot of crew women break down and cry the guys well i hope there are any sraught guys i think mosat of them argay or become gay in this company thats the reality ogf things

And enlighten me as to how Qatar Airways is responsible for his loan?

buddy people work out of difficulty due to some problem so there will always be crew in qatar airways but they dont stay in the company for long.one person took a loan and till now he is suffering paying the loan as he has no job here there is no understanding inn this comapny

well QA is not that bad as people make it out to be. more like some sour grapes...

If it was like that, there would not be any crew working for Qatar Airways. What happened to your friend, does not necessarily have to happen to all the rest. Maybe she was complacent in her work or did something really bad that she was sent packing.

nazi camp in the 21 century theyt will make you work like a donkey .everyday you will have to look over your shoulder even when taking a loan be ver careful as this is not a secure job the job maybe there today tommorow gone just by one small mistake no chace given here i had a friend in crew the cancel her the day they did that she was transported to the airport bags packed most imp no release once out out of qatar to they will make you do other peoples work to as you are a new comer as they said earlier the crew work non stopn in the plane as they know there are spies travelling on the same flight so they have to thjey cant relax either work like donkey,puppets or lose job thats the reality ofg this company hire and fire policy.emirates etihad million times better

Hello...Taly....aneehs is right so you better to join Emirates...all D best...

emirates or etihad would be a better option.

I say if you get a call for QR, go for it. Do not fall for the negativity on the forum. If you don't like it and can't cope with the social life, you always have the option of resigning.

Look at the brighter side, you will have had the training and the experience, that will hold you in good stead, rather than wait for a call from other airlines in the region, which you are not sure will happen.

hmmm i dont know much about qatar airways but i also want to apply there as a 1st officer after completing my CPL/IR

so i also need some info

As I know, QATAR AIRWAYS SERVICE IS GOOD, BUT IF U WANT TO WORK THERE IS VERY HARD, U HAVE TO WORK LIKE A DONKEYS THERE, AND THEY HAVE LOTS OF HUNDREDS OF RULES AND REGULATION,

BETTER IF U CHOOSE EMIRATES BETTER,

GOOD LUCK

yeah better to wait for EY/EK...pstttt...don't tell anyone

im a frequent flyer..i noticed that cabin crew in qatar airways are non stop working from the moment it took off till we reached our destination.pity them.anyway thats we paying for. In the other hand Emirates are way relax than Qatar Airways crew.but since ur working..look at the package...who give u more and better benefits.Grab it!
