Heard the "Gentleman's" agreement was back in effect, Qatar was upset about the poaching. Don't know what will happen over the next few months though. Rumor was only five guys bid on the 787 due to the bond, bids released today on the A380 and 787 but I haven't looked to see how many actually went.
Orders are as follows ..10 A380's.
12 A350's.
41 B787's.
And a number of 777's from the manufacturer and taken from Jet Airways.

Probably be hiring off the street to the 787 soon, FO's don't want to seat lock because upgrades are happening on the 777 and captains smell the curry runs.

I'm currently flying the A320 with a SIC rating. Is this ok as far as the type rating requirement.
Right now getting close to 1000hrs in the 320, with 2600 total time including 1300 in a turbo-prop.
Do I have to wait until I meet the 1500hrs of jet time, or am I reading the minimum requirements wrong.
Thanks

RemoveB4flight and EYBusdriver,
Thank you for all the posts and good detailed info on Etihad!
I've gone through as many posts as I could find on this forum by now an would appreciate any insights regarding the actual interview process, as most of the info is over 2 years old already and the "other" forum doesn't have any up to date info either due to reasons we all know.
I'm actually asking for another colleague who hasn't an account here and who's been invited for a December interview slot (B777 NTR). According to the invitation this is the screening profile:
Day 1:Simulator and Technical Exam
Day 2:HOGAN Assessment Feedback, Group Exercise, English Exam, Formal Interview.
Day 3:Medical
Any heads up would be greatly appreciated!
Fly safe,
Upspeed.

Not sure what else to tell your friend. The interview profile is accurate and has stayed pretty much the same for years as far as I know.
The sim profile is straight forward, the hogan test basically identifies personality traits that can be both strengths and weakness, they want to see how well you play with others, and the interview is relaxed but professional. It's mostly pilots who handle the process, and they are a diverse group who have all been with the company a long time.
There are challenges to living here, but in my opinion there's no one particular type of person or nationality who does better here. I know single guys and families that love it, and those that don't.
There's no doubt that the growth is happening, and it's exciting to be a part of it. From the large number of nervous faces in blue suits I see at the HQ over recent months, no shortage of interested applicants.
