Congratulation for your application with GB Airways! Some questions have arisen then...
[APPLICATION]
- Have you had to wait a long time before getting a feedback from GB Airways, regarding your application as an Air Cabin Crew with them?
the whole procedure from sending form to getting job took about 10 days
- Have you been shortlisted onto a list for the interview? Were they flexible (e.g BA's system with a multiple choice of assessment dates)?
they offer dates by email or phone, you accept one you can go to. They're all day events on Sats or Suns usually
[ASSESSMENT DAY]
- What would be your words to describle the way you were feeling on that particular exciting day? Relaxed? Stressed? Were you with a lot of people at the assesment?
Same as any other recruitment day, do a search on what happens
- Where did it happen? MAN?
Mostly LGW they do arrange MAN ones now for that base
- What is it all about? Introduction to others, Group exercice(s) then personal interview?
All of those
- Have you got the result of your day quickly? Email, phone call?
You get a call a few days later if you're successful sometimes the following day. You then get a letter confirming this, then when a date comes up they phone to offer it to you and you get another letter. Then when you sign that one you get the contact.
[CONDITIONS, BASES etc]
- How is the salary divided into parts? (Salary, Sector Pays, Nightstop? allowance, commision?)
You get basic salary, flight pay per hour (includes nightstopping i.e. total number of hours from start to finish of a shift, and commission)
- Roughly, how many hours flown by month? (70 < block hours < 90+)?
Depends if you're lgw or man. Man seem to fly a bit less but someone can clarify this
- Where does the training take place? For how long (5,6+ weeks?)? Is accomodation provided whilst on training?
Usually LGW, although they try to get together MAN groups to do training there. No accommodation provided for training.
Cheers
Hope that's all OK for you, I'm sure someone else can add to this!!
