Interviews in PEK followed by SIM in CTU (Chengdu) next week. 16-20 candidates initially.
Visit to Devils Island: After the interview the company are offering a trip to Hainan. Bribery and corruption will get you everywhere!
Remember when Indira Ghandi offered a free radio and a coke for any male who offered himself for a vasectomy?(1976) Well when the batteries went flat and the coke was long gone... They couldn't undo the nip and tuck!
So anyone deciding to come here have to make sure that they want it for the long term... The company will impress you with their modern buildings, new aircraft and occasional generosity but at the end of the day you still living in a completely different culture. Food that is 99% Chinese (great for some of us), English speakers: less than 1% and no English speaking schools.
But if you like golf, tennis, basketball, cycling, table tennis, hanging out in bars and dicos.... Well Haikou is the place.
Single guys will have no problems... Married guys have to think carefully (particularly with school aged kids) Wives can work as English teachers(or french/German/spanish teachers)
More info: Hainan will (at time of press release) commence a code-sharing flight with Malev to Budapest in August.
BKK currently is a sunday only flight but should increase to 3 times per week next month.
Will be in Stockholm on sunday to lease/buy another 737 from SAS. Anybody for a Glug or Semla?
