After I interviewed with KAL the last week of November in 2006 I was offered a position in. In fact… out of the 10 of us who interviewed, 9 were offered direct entry captain positions with the company. My current employer made me an offer I could not refuse. While it was a tough choice, I turned down the offer from KAL.
For me, day one was the simulator evaluation utilizing my company’s current QRH. Day two was the medical. I felt I was being examined for the Korean Space program. The debrief with the doctor was very friendly and straight forward. The funny thing is that the chap in our group who we thought was a fine physical specimen was turned down for medical reasons. Day 3… day at leisure to walk around Seoul. Day 4... interview with pilot board. The interview as I recalled lasted all of about 5 to 10 minutes, then back to the airport and on the jet back home later that afternoon.
I realize that times have changed, but never felt slighted or demeaned during the interview process from the time I checked in for my flight to Korea.
Without causing angst, I am curious as to your statement about discrimination.
