Anyone else had a similar experience with this lot?
Took half a dozen phone calls to arrange a
date for the interview. Person concerned was
not apparently even involved in the initial selection proceedure.
A colleague reported the same, plus at the
interview was told only EGSS available. (Flight ad said EGPH available.) When he expressed surprise interviewer asked why he
hadn't bothered to check! What, as in "O.K.
great I'll come along, and is there anything
you havn't been telling me?" They then admitted that the ad was "slightly misleading". He was expected to relocate to
EGSS and wait for EGPH base if/as and when,
then re-relocate. Ha ha ha ha ha !
62 Grand plus 10-12 duty/sector pay is a fair
whack by any standards but wait on; considering the expected workload (up to legal max in most cases)and compared to ours
and others current 5-600 hrs it's suddenly not so rosy. The extra work comes out at about £20/hr after tax. Well I've done my time on those sort of rates. (loved every
minute of it, I shold add, but 10 years and
30 grand later...) Also no payment for worked
days off.
It goes into the box marked "avoid", I'm
afraid. Barking.
