Yorkshire Pud,
Interesting link!!!!
I found this bit interesting, apart from your previously pointed out 'bonding':
Successful candidates will hold a UK Frozen ATPL and Medical as well as JOC, MCC and driving licence. You will have excellent verbal and written communication skills and experience of office IT systems. In addition we require you to be flexible as we may require you to be based from any of our UK bases.
So Jet2 want you to be instantly employable as a pilot but put you through 18 months as teaboy/general dogsbody prior to condecending to allowing you near a type rating!!!
I wonder if they will keep your licences ticking over in the intervening 18 months.
This isn't an apprenticeship this is pure exploitation of already qualified professional pilots.
I would not recommend this industry to my children.
