Any type of info much appreciated !!!!
the interview is a few technical questions and a few hr questions with a sim ride. You will have to convince them you can survive on COS18. There are a few posts on how crap the contract is already but to put it into perspective we needed 64 DEFO’s this year, we got 6 or so who said yes despite interviewing (or offering interviews for many). Of the few who signed on two left before training was complete and the others are realising what they’ve signed on for.. if you go sick or take leave (mandatory 6 weeks per year) or the schedule gets cut you can lose 40% of your pay each month. Only 60k is guaranteed, if you work a full month you might get 100k ( the same as a standard contract FO who works less than you). There are no quick commands any more, we have >40 FO’s ready to do command but no courses on the horizon because we can’t release any FO’s to upgrade as no one is joining on this POS18 contract.
