Not the best of news..
Just got an update from a friend of the family who's been at EK for about 19 years......
Apparently "someone" screwed up and 100 extra FO's/DEC's have been hired and trained over what was required for this year. ALL recruitment has been stopped until next year, as opposed to starting again in Nov..
Poolies should expect an email explaining the situation soon and that course dates will now not be until April/May.
Don't shoot the messenger, I'm not happy about it either; a May course date would put me very close to my 12 month expiration.
