FO: About USD35K after tax. But they only hire Malaysian citizens for FO spots.
Capt: After tax about USD100K. Only about half of that is guaranteed though. The rest is flight/sector pay. If you don't fly, for whatever reason, you'll only get the guaranteed pay.

Just to clarify compensation is based on 3 variables: base + flight + sector. Also since AA placed a 200 Airbus A320 order does this mean the compensation will increase? What of pay increases? And seniority system?

I believe it's base, hourly, and sector pay. Base pay for captains is about MYR13,000/month (~3:1 to the USD so USD4,300) before taxes. Malaysian income tax is about 25% for the kind of salary you'd be making as a captain.
No idea on gouge, seniority or pay increases.

Air Asia does NOT pay for anything for the interview. Out of 7 in my group to interview, only 2 got hired of which one was Malaysian. I learned that no one was hired in previous groups. It was foolish on my part to interview based on Air Asia's hiring history.

With a 200 Airbus 320 order just inked at the Paris Air Show AA has a daunting task of recruiting pilots. Additionally to attract foreign pilots AA will have to offer a competitive compensation package.
