I do know . . I was based there this last 2 Summers , original poster asked about DEC positions with Smartlynx in RIGA, hence, my separate observations on Riga, & Lithuanian companies (well, the ones I know of, but it's a short list anyhow ? )

To my knowledge they use several bases in Europe (Riga, Vilnius, Bratislava) and even TLV seasonally

Hi guys!
Can someone who is working or who worked for Smart lynx tell me something about assessment with them.
What was on interview and what was on sim ride.

Hi leteci !
Did you have any feedback from Mountain High? I received 5 days ago an email to wait 4 weeks for a call.

It is another pay to fly scheme for FOs. Even the assesment is paid.

MiTo, I know, I know, they wrote it in this email
I am not rated on A320, so that's why I asked about possible calls.

Assessment already starts, will be until 11.03.2013 and it is not pay to fly scheme...
If you have experiance on A320 they will invite you but as I heard sim is not easy and fail rate is high correct me if im wrong informed.

If you have 0 hours on type you have little or no chance to get a job with SmartLynx. They have 20 people doing company course now.
