So it seems that they get not only experienced guys but experienced guys who can also pass aptitude tests. Ho hum.
former workmates who did get the Jet2 job regards each flight on one of the B737-300's as a potential simulator session, have the HR department pulling them off line for the most minor infraction of the FDM, the policy on RNAV approaches is like something out of the dark ages and the management are very aggressive. The only upside is you do three tenths of naff all work during the winter.
A lot has changed since you left, NINE years ago, and HR have nothing to do with FDM. I agree about the RNAV stuff though but who really cares.
JB, you come across as a bitter old man who is desperate to post anything negative about Jet2 on any thread. It's rather sad.
