NickS,
You get to turn down an offer of employment, but only a limited number of times.
Hmmmmmmmm....... true to a degree because CTC say "While you are not allowed to choose your emplyer, you are allowed to turn down an offer from a partner airline. You get two chances to do so and thats the limit."
"However, if you turn down this opportunity then it is unlikely we will offer you another opportunity"
All this info is straight off of the CTC website FAQ section so have a filter through.
The bit about bonding is true also. You dont have to stay with your partner airline, but if you leave early you will be responsable for the loan repayments.
In fact here you go - fill your boots mate. Hope all your questions are answered here------------>
