No wonder these ads seem to be constantly running, if that is the best employers can do to encourage pilots to join, does this reflect their feelings/mentality towards their key staff?
B.
The industry is still in the "you're lucky to work for us" mode.
That is slowly changing.
There is an ad out for another UK HEMS operator which (although specifying the minimum requirements) seems to move more towards describing the up-sides rather than just demanding bits of paper. It also includes type ratings and training if necessary.
