Soryy to be impatient. . but have you read the 26 pages of this thread. . .nope ? thought not, or the "link" I posted, nope. . . too busy ? well, fortunately we are here to hold your hand.
If you did, you wouldn't even ask about "core" positions & you would know the contract is 6mths initially, extendable to 24 or 36mths, depending on base.
Recruitment is for "Contract Bases" (HEL/LGW/AGP/ALC/BCN/MAD/LPA/TFS) although, surprisingly
most FO's recruited early this year spent the whole of Summer in OSL (not their choice) thereby conveniently obviating the need to increase the size of the core workforce.
NAS are "top heavy" with FO's for Winter, so, why recruit ? and why are they just in the process of demoting around 40 Capts ? . . . Hmnn, industrial dispute. . . . . . strike action . . .some little "pioneers" eager to help out ? Cynical ? me ?
I guess you won't be worried that the "offer" is 800€/mth less than the current Contractors have . . .sounds a bit "Irish" to me
