Virgin Australia - Wannabes & Recruitment

Sydneysider88

I have emailed them 3 times and have called them a few times too, I left a voicemail last time on the recruitment guys answer machine too and still no reply. I never seem to be able to speak to an actual person in recruitment to confirm anything. Would just like to know if I'm still on the list.

Maybe I will try and ring again Monday, just dont want to be a pest either

[Sydneysider88]

That is a hard one emmaloo!


Does anyone have any info on how virgin staff travel works and what you actually get. Is it only for domestic and how can you use it and on whom.

[Emma-loo]

Are you waiting for Perth and was told there would be a GS in a few weeks or another base Sydneysider88?

[Sydneysider88]

For Sydney base. International. We were told around 12tg march for GS.

Does anyone know where you go for your Virgin Australia Medical?

Just got the thank you but no thank email for the third time.

I would like to know what it really takes to be employed by Virgin?

Oh well there loss - they really don't want professionals working for them and qualified people.

There loss Qantas gain

[Sydneysider88]

I opposite experience marly. All the people at my AD were professionals, degree holders and with experience, some with or without flight experience. Sometimes they don't want experience.

Keep trying!

[marly]

I'm just thinking that there is something that I am not seeing when I put my application in and they are seeing.
Maybe next time will have to get someone working in the field to have a look.

[Sydneysider88]

I re worded and fixed my resume before applying for virgin and got through right away. I guess somtimes it does make a difference.

[marly]

I tried that, completely pulled apart resume and reworded questions. Any tips would be truly appreciated. Still keen on virgin, but have got an AD for MAM on Friday

[syd16R]

Can anyone shed some light of what you need to do in your medical for Virgin Australia

[Emma-loo]

Omg so excited...

I finally had contact from Virgin today and got that call I thought would never come! GS for Perth due to start on 2 March and subject to refs and meds I'll be in it yey! Said they'll be in touch again soon, I'm just so glad they havent lost me the system, after 3 months no contact.

I'm trying to not get too excited but I'm finding it very hard lol


Don't give up guys.

[syd16R]

Yeah I had a call today, reference checks done and have to book in for a medical. Start date 27th Feb for G/S in Sydney

[Hope89]

Marly that really sucks keep trying! And definitely give MAM your best shot. Hmmm... I'm pretty much convinced that I've been lost in the system. It's been months and months and I still have that silly "Application Acknowledgment" status
