Garuda applicants beware
As part of the application process for B737NG Captain screening,I have been given a letter by Parc .
The letter states that the applicant agrees to refund Garuda the cost of the assessment ( ie flights,hotel and simulator costs) if he/she is offered employment and declines the offer (if no job offer is made then there is no liability to repay the costs).
The sum involved could easily be 2,000 euros or more (Parc are saying nothing about the amount.)
Although I would be quite keen to work in Asia,I am not prepared to sign such a letter as a matter of principle as I know almost nothing about what to expect. If I knew in advance that life with Garuda in Jakarta would be good that might be different but ,so far,there is little or no feedback from anyone.
I am not that desperate for work so I pass on this golden opportunity to work 3 months on and have 2 whole weeks off.
Regards,
Caissa.
