easyJet Typed FO recruitment - 2017/2018
Hi everyone,
easyJet recently opened again its pilot recruitment page online.
For the type rated FOs, they offer different bases, including:
- Luton/Gatwick
- Palma de Mallorca
- Portugal
I heard that Portugal can be a trap as, later on, if you want to move on another base, you might be stuck here unless you find yourself another FO willing to replace you. Plus the heavy taxes in Portugal.
Any easyJet pilot able to comment on the PMI option (Palma) ? They say it is a seasoal base, 8 months ON / 4 months OFF. How do you feel about this new contract?
If you are in PMI, do you still get the opportunity to move on another base later (UK/FRANCE/ITALY etc.)?
What is the roster when you are working? Does it depend on the base ?
Do you think it is better to apply for one base rather than another one in order to get better chances to be invited for selection? Indeed, I tend to think that their biggest needs are for Luton/Gatwick.
In advance, thank you for your light...
