A few guys in my interview group were assigned MD slots before the rest of us got our CJO’s. The day out CJO’s delivered, a separate email went out asking for volunteers to fill two vacancies in HKG.
Not sure what the selection method is for the hand picked MD guys. I had heard that in the past they liked military heavy guys for this. But the ones I know of were not military at all.

They keep changing their mind about what they want. For a year or two it was C-17 and F/A-18 guys because AOA awareness/experience. Now they’ve decided they don’t want that. Guess what - all the new hires I fly with on the MD - from every imaginable background - are all solid. Maybe stop trying to overthink this...
