they accept no risk whatsoever...
If the cadet gets all the way to the end of his/her line training and for some reason cannot get to the required standard in the required time set by jetstar, they bear the total cost of the entire program without a job...!
Fill me in as this does not seem right at all...
Nothing but blue sky - Why would j* bear any risk when they apparently can find enough patsy's who will? This is the whole point, there's a sucker born every minute. j* are a business, part of business is risk management and or shifting (usually to the taxpayer, but that's for another day) and that is exactly what they are doing. Fair, reasonable & conscionable? No, legal, probably yes. j* are preying on the ignorance of the brutal reality of this industry.
Those that fail to due their due diligence are in for the shock of their lives. As I said, the instant the ink from their signature is dry on the contract, the $$ meter starts and it get progressively harder to walk away from the ever increasing accumulated debt.
Why anyone would sign up for this deal is beyond me.
