Utenlandske piloter er å foretrekke! De bør helst bo i Tallinn, Bangkok eller Malaga. Bør være kjernesunn da sykepenger ikke utbetales. Sats på å jobbe til du dør, da pensjon ikke er innkludert.
Opprettelse av familie er ikke ønskelig. Du har kun 8 fridager i mnd. Det kan bli færre, litt avhengi av om ny subart Q blir implementert.

Reopened?
Not enough interest first time around?
Dear Captain,
We have you registered as a Captain with experience flying wide bodied Boeing aircraft.
We have reopened recruitment of Captains for Norwegian Long Haul’s B787 operation.
Please confirm your interest and availability for contract start in January 2013 by completing the attached Flight Crew Data Summary sheet and sending it back to me with any queries you may have.
Also please let me know if you are available for screening 14JUN or 18JUN where we still have slots available.
If you have already received this briefing from my colleague Torkel Waak and are not interested or available, please disregard.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Kind regards,
Claudia

Current recruitment is for LPA, no-one knows exactly how that roster will be, I expect a few nights in hotels in Scandinavia, as some of the destinations will be too far to facilitate a round-trip in one duty.
Current recruitment is not for AGP, but, in any case, the roster there is leave AGP Day1, nt stop in 1 or 2 different places "up North" return Day 5.
Constantly changing story regarding AGP based aircraft,rumours of anywhere between 2 & 6, recently expected by Winter, todays story is that it ain't gonna happen, so continue as gypsy. . . . . . .
Latest rumour is that LPA base will operate (round trip?) to Brazil to facilitate company ETOPS approval for 787 operation.

Well, you might be wrong..
Since May we have introduced personality tests for new pilots and captain
candidates.( it is also an IQ test) These tests are developed by a company called Assessio, and it is used by the Long Haul-, Short Haul Fleet and the administration. The personality test is based on “The
Big Five”, which is a highly respected test system. Assessio has trained a group of HR and OPS personnel on how to interpret these tests and how to provide feedback.
Aaaaand by the way, there is also an simride.
So i think you`ll be left behind if you based your training on PS2`s :-)
God luck:-)

Why all this hate? Remember that these are our fellow collegues.....
They are not to be blamed how things has become.
But of course, one start to wonder why they sudddenly have decided to start some serious screening.......

I give up!!!
this forum has lost all it`s former use..
all you people seem to be interested in is talking **** and being negative no matter what!?!
I remember at time when this was a serious website where a man could actually use some of the information that was shared here.
No it seems that the main goal is to trash everything.
(Before you start, this is not just the case in DY related threads)
Our profession don`t need more negativity.
how about growing up

Some of us need to grow up, and and some of us need to grow a pair in order to secure this profession for the long haul 
Probably because HR/Training themselves realized the "screening" was a freaking joke
But of course, one start to wonder why they sudddenly have decided to start some serious screening.......

Anyone smart enough to pass “The Big Five”, (which is a highly respected test I might add)
, can''t be stupid enough to sign a 6-month back-of-the-fagpack contract flying for pennies through the shadiest of shady tax-loopholes? The one contradicts the other, and is worth a good laugh. Quality costs, but these guys don't seem too bothered.
Pay low, hire the leftovers.
Pay high, pick and choose.

I´l be damed if i`m gonna let you bitter guyes **** on my pride!! I have worked my ass off becoming what i am today! have worked for norwegian for 3 years now, and before that i worked in a small cargo airline flying turboprops.

I wonder who`s bitter here?
Don`t get all fired up, if you dont see why people have a few critical questions then, well......
But then again, its no need for all the trash-talk on DY pilots behalf.
Actually met a couple of them at OSL yesterday, nice people
We are all in this **** together......
Oh, by the way Init: Did your company pay for your training and TR?
Worked your ass off to get where you are today or payed your ass off?
Jokes aside, supid argument anyhow. Lets get this forum back to the serious channel it once was
