Careers with BA CityFlyer

[ITFC1]

We are sorry to say that you don't meet the necessary criteria to join us at this time. The reasons for this decision are as follows:


Is there any reason why you would not be suitable for employment if a security check was carried out on you You answered No.

That's me out then, yes i am suitable is why i answered no, there is no reason why i would not be suitable.

[RexBanner]

Maybe that was the verbal reasoning test. Only THEY got it wrong.

Is LCY the only pilot base? I thought EDI was a base for a few years.

[Globemiester]

Job spec says Edinburgh also...

I'd email HR to say that you've had a problem with that application.
And take it from there. They are usually very helpful.

EDIT: HR are aware and have corrected the response.

great to see BACF are recruiting. Does anyone know if they are likely to take low hour pilots over the next few months?

[chileconcarne27]

The issue with the question wording has been reported and has been fixed I believe.

Despite some rumours, the EDI base is still very much up and running.

BACF have taken on low hours cadets in recent months, and MPL students but, for the next round of recruitment, are only looking for experienced applicants. I think they will take on more low hours people in the future as it saves them a fortune!

When I see "competitive" written in the salary section, I become immediately suspicious. Any ideas how much we're talking here?

[chileconcarne27]

BA Cityflyer pilot jobs, payscales and entry requirements.

Recently updated and looks pretty accurate

Go in with your eyes very much open...

Moral at an all time low... mass exodus underway (at last)

Re-Applying

I applied last Autumn and received an email last month telling me I had been unsuccessful but I could reapply when they next recruited. However, when I logged on, my old application is there, and when I tried to withdraw it to start again the system said it had already been withdrawn and no further action can be taken, but when I clicked the link to apply again the system said 'Application Submitted!' Any suggestions? Or is it because it is less than 12 months since the previous application? (I've just looked at the date on the cover letter and it is 1 year today I wrote it, 22nd August!)

It may sound pedantic, but moral and morale are two very different things

Does anyone know what their sim assessment is like?

Same here. And no!

[Props Forward]

In actual fact WK you're right.... but they both don't exist at CF.

The company have no morals with regard to several key issues facing the working conditions at the minute..

...and the staff have no morale..

You'd pass the assessment with your keen observational skills and pedantic nature..!

[WX Man]

When you say that people are leaving, what's the attrition rate at the moment- any idea how many folk are required in the next 3-4 months?

A friend of mine is in the hold pool from last year's selection process.

[Mflyer123]

Does anyone have any more information about working for cityflyer? How does the roster work? Time to command? Route network? Stopovers and trips?

Many thanks

[EMB-145LR]

Have any invitations gone out for interviews/assessments yet?

[turbine100]

Did they correct the problem in the application process for those that applied and had to select no to the airport security question, to be able to get through the incorrect logic in the online application process
