Ryanair
Heard a rather nasty rumour recently re. Ryanair's latest recruitment strategy for new FO's. They are apparently looking at training 40 new FO's this year. If you're one of the wannabes 'fortunate' enough to be selected you hand over £12K for the training. At the end of the course around 25 will then be taken on, not necessarily as flight crew. A stint in ops may be all that is initially offered. I don't know what happens to the balance of the 40 who start training.
Someone please tell me this is not true because it sound like something out of Never-never land.
