Perhaps they think that there will soon be a cadet shortage??

Re the minimums:

A person will not be appointed unless Jetstar is satisfied that the person's employment with Jetstar will at all times be subject only to those industrial instruments which bind Jetstar at the time it considers the person's application.
As this is a 'Group' appointment it is JQ's view that the only industrial instrument that Jetstar Group is bound by is the Modern Air Pilots Award 2010. It is 'considering applications' before they have to appear against AFAP and AIPA before Fair Work Australia and they get told that the EBA extends to all Australian Jetstar Companies!!

A devious move - not sure it will stick though!!

ps Minimums seem terribly high considering they are letting 200 hour cadets have a bash in the right hand seat. If 200 hours is really the minimum experience required to do the job anything higher would be nothing short of descrimination or is it just double standards??

Hey Bruce, If you want to do things the European way then don't just pick and choose which parts you like and which parts you don't. I Europe minimum hours for recruitment are virtually non existant as long as you have the licence and ratings.
