or rather they WERE recruiting low-hours guys

I'm normally an upbeat sort of guy, but it's misleading to suggest DHL and bmir are currently recruiting, they may have been selecting recently but I suggest you will not get a job with them in the short-term. I'm in the hold pool (along with several others I know) for bmir but there is no indication at all if/when we will get the long awaited call for a place on a TR. If we do get called forward then presumably someone else gets an indefinite wait in the pool: they took 6 FOs last year.
I got the following from DHL in October.
"...we do not have any vacancies at present and we already have candidates in a holding pool for 2009, ....."
Add to that the threat of redundancy looming over me in my current job and I think the doom and gloom on here is very real: please everyone think carefully before you commit.
