To all those interested in OneJetOne (OJO), no recruitment has taken place. OJO will begin recruiting via its website as from the 1st of February. Only online applications submitted via the career section of the website will be accepted. No hard copies or emailing your CV to anyone is required.

In addition, I can confidently say that OJO will cover all the training costs & the bond won't be 8 years.

Finally, the website will be changing in a couple of hours, hope your prepared to experience the new website emphasizing OJO's aim which is Fun to fly !

onejetone's site is up....OneJetOne Airways Kenya - Fun to fly ! It appears to be a Kenyan LCC along the lines of RyanAir/easyJet...fleet A320 & 330. i spoke with its CEO Arjun Ruzaik (mobile nos are on the site....refreshing way of communication !) & he mentions that recruitment has now commenced & priority will be given to Kenyan citizens. He also acknowledges that there are hardly any rated Kenyan captains & as such will be seeking "foreigners" (both rated line &/or trainers) on short term contracts

requirements and aircraft types are on the website . licence conversions will be necessary to fly 5Y aircraft anyway if you don't have one yet and , generally it's a fairly long process .I guess citizens will have priority then , hopefully , foreigners with local licence , then the rest if there's still a need . Maybe TRE,TRI's will be able to get a stint as the type is new to the country .

Kenyan licence-validation

when you go to those.... uhm.... professional people in the KCAA, to get your Kenyan validation, just make sure you get there early in the morning. Or else you'll have to wait in the queue for a couple of hours. And believe me, you don't want that to happen on top of it all, because your time will be bad enough when having to deal with them.
They will literally drive you insane.

Say "hello" to Gladys from me when you get there!

Open Days

From the looks of the application process, the open days have been split into about 3 to four, the first one being tomorrow the 8th. of Feb...and u get to be invited once you have completed the application process..its not free for all...Looking to have about 60 to 80 crew eventually, 3 A320s and 2 A330s....not sure if thats proportional to the number of crew wanted./ aircraft they say they will bring!

Hello Skytango1!
Yes, actually, I meant Lucy, not Gladys. But there's no real difference between them. Last time I was there, I had to deal with a younger guy who made himself important. They're all just the same fs.

Does anyone have any info / advise on how to get round this problem with the online application?

When I input contact details of my referees the system rejects it with "this is an invalid email address". OK it is a UK email address I'm inputting, but still surprised it won't accept it.

Thanks in advance guys/gals
