Why do you think Swiss European is looking for pilots when everybody else stopped recruitments, or even making people redundants? They had a bunch of well experienced pilots (CNs and FOs) a few yeras back, but most of them ran away in 2006/7 when there was plenty of jobs on the market. Why? Because those people had more than enough of being treated like second class pilots, being forced new contracts with lesser conditions, having to swallow bulls**t from management as to those new conditions were according industry standard (you fly small planes, you get crap money), etc... And it was not a nationality thing, lots of Swiss nationals left as well (actually most of them were from GENF
)
Anyway if you guys/girls are desperate for a job, go ahead but don't plan for a career there. I did and wasted 8 years in this crapy airline. Actually some years were with Crossair and that was rather fun despite a ridiculously low salary.
Swiss mainline (airbus fleet) is probably better but as mentionned earlier be ready to suffer a Schwyzer dütsch brain damage.
I know I sound bitter about the whole thing... that's because I am.
Josey out.
