The netto pay as FO I dont know for sure because I am not working at Easy yet. But I think its in the 51-54.000 pounds Gross range.
At my assessment day there were mainly ex Mil guys mostly TP, fighter and Heavy Jet. And 1 civilian TR'ed guy. Guys in their end thirties and fourties.
How far along they are with the assessments I dont know. I think they started in late June but have no idea how many people they invited from the thousands that applied. So I would guess they are over the halfway point.
