A friend of mine applied for a cabin crew position & discovered that she had to pay an administration charge before the interview & then, if she was successful, she was expected to pay £1000+ (can't remember the exact figure) for the training course, which was non-refundable, and wait, there's more...her travel & hotel expenses for the training course which could be either at LGW or either of 2 European bases! How does anyone afford to work for Ryanair? You'd need a bank loan just to get a job! Needless to say, she told them where to stick their interview. No wonder they make a profit. Of course this is only hearsay, but from a very reliable source.
