I agree with much of the post from Yeovil - a page back .. that's so accurate.
Airbus Girl said; "How come Virgin can recruit for the A340 and B747 with just an interview"
The same way they get away with paying cabin crew £1200 nett when BA pays £2100 nett. The company has an identity, a sense of fun. The pax are well looked after, the employees are proud of the airline. You could join Virgin knowing you will have fun whilst at work.
Young people; who want to do the job properly, have a laugh and make a living.
