mr goodluck: EZ is usually pretty fast, it took two weeks for me. That is very good for the airline industry.
flying phil: The salary at EZ is around £18500 and you get staff travel, which is unlimited flights anywhere on the network for around £31 (return) for you and three friends, available from the day you start. I would much rather take a plane to Greece, than a train to Newcastle for a holiday. No offence to people from Newcastle, I just chose a random City.
HiFlyer: I'm Aussie too. Don't stress about the visa. if you can bring along a copy of your application, or birth certificates of your parents. My assesment day was 5th May, and i flew out on 8th July. They are usually pretty flexible with start dates.
If you are italian, you might want to consider the Milan base. They are desperate for crew. I just came back from doing a week there. The flights are really quiet. ie: pleanty of time to read your book... he he he...
LGW and LTN are very busy bases, and if you live near the airport, then be prepared to be very bored. Gatwick and Luton areas are pretty boring!
Good luck at the interview! Be Yourself!
