Dear Euronator ! Reiterating West ATC's enquiry, what salary approximately would experienced recruits expect to commence on ? Is the salary structure like a slow 13-year climb to the top, or is it qualification/rating based ? (meaning you simply are paid subject to ATC/instructor/supervisor ratings as they are achieved). I understand the training is for at least 9 months, which I assume would be on a probationary training wage of sorts ? The application mentions an appointment for an "undetermined period". Would this typically be 1 year ? 5 years ? And what exactly is "1.9% of pension rights" ? Does it mean that after say 10 years you would receive 19% of an equivalent Dutch national pension...?
How would the cost of living compare to that say in Australia ? Housing, rent, car, food etc...?
And lastly what is it like living in Maastricht ?
Thanks
