Many thanks

[manflexsrsrwy]

Hi anyone shed some light on Volotea interview for fast track A319 position or any information at all would be greatly received ? thanks any info about the company conditions, climate that sort of thing please

[manflexsrsrwy]

guys has no one seriously have nothing to say about this outfit ? not sure whether the silence is concering or not ?

[MAGAGGIARI]

I will attend the screening at the end of November . Anyone has any idea about the simulator scenario?

[Yeager]

I recently asked to see there conditions of service in full, and the clowns said that these would only be disclosed during the interview with the chief pilot in Barcelona (is that still Spain?). Needless to say, after hearing rumors of the lowest of the lowest CoS in the industry, I said no thx to travel, at my own expense, to Baaarrrrceluna.

[vincedonato]

I will also go to the screening in the end of November...but I still have no idea of what to expect regarding the interview, written tests or the simulator... I anyone has any information at all, please let me know. I will really appreciate it! Thanks

[Sea Hawk]

Dear everyone first of all i would like to thank you even that you enter to see my topic.
So lets get into it,after i apply to Volotea Airlines(for the positions F/O A319/20) they ask me to go for an interview at December,the thing is that i need someone that have experience with that company about the following.
 A psychometric test
 A theory test, technical knowledge
 SIM/VPT (TBC)
A PM or a reply to this topic with the things that could help me will be much appreciate.
If someone is already in the company and could share his experience it will be also much helpful. :)
Thank you everyone for your time.

[FBW390]

Yeager, you are 100 % right. These clowns at recruitment don't show you the conditions? That means they are so low! And I have a friend there, a Captain: he says he wants to leave...So it must not be good at all!

[dan1165]

Its not good at all since the beginning :rolleyes: ...

[Boeing737_IL]

Hi
those sick people offering 3 years Contract ,however they pay you only in the Summer .
Captain A319/B717
3600 Basic salary plus 70 Euros for each hour .
cheers

[TRENDMAN]

Hi.
Anybody can confirm bases for B717 and A319 DEC?Thanks

[BlueVolta]

I was called for interview in january 2017....when I asked about T&C never got any answer from the recuitement team. 😃
As I remember there was a kind of bonding/reimbursement of the B717 TR that is pretty useless outside Volotea.

[MAGAGGIARI]

I have different figures.
Starting from 5500 net for 70hrs to 8500/9000 for 100hrs .
I’m going in few days, let’s see what happen....

[dirk85]

I think you are up for a big disappointment if you have those numbers in mind.

[LSP.fr]

2018 : A319 in NTE,BOD,TLS, VRN, B717 : SXB,VCE, PMO, GOA, MRS,BIO, ATH

[blumoon]

Any idea when they plan on moving to an all Airbus fleet? Volotea seem to have stopped getting rid of their 717's and are expanding instead?

Thanks

[LSP.fr]

Cobham / Quantas link interested by more 717 ?

[TRENDMAN]

Thank you for the very useful info

[Mr Angry from Purley]

I'd be based at PMO just so i could meet Pilot Lindy

[Estartap]

There's any chance for cadets with 200 hours?

[Pilotmed]

Hi how are you ?
I also got an interview in November, I would like to know if you have been called after this ? I only received an email telling me that we have a score and that they might contact us in a near future ...

[0l414]

Hey there!
ive been invited for the assesments in Barcelona for Volotea this january. Anyone knows what should i expect in the interview, sim etc? thanks:)

[Pilotmed]

Hi, dir which position do you apply ?
When did they send you the invitation ?

[mermoz13]

HI Guys, Anybody has passed interviews ? any help would be appreciated about tests and interview with Chief Pilot

[Pilotmed]

The rest depend for which position and aircraft you are applying for !

[mermoz13]

I’m applying to Airbus positions
Is there any ATPL questions or just about Airbus ?
During interview with chief pilot, will he also ask for technical questions ?

[Pilotmed]

Rated or not rated ?
Expect some aircraft questions if you are rated. During the interview with chief pilot, he may will ask you some ATPL and aircraft questions.

[Tekor Bali]

A319 DE CPT depends on the entry level. Don’t dream to fly more than 80 in August, less the other months.

[Pilotmed]

Hello,
Does anyone know if all the a319 first officer position has been fulfilled for this summer ?

[mermoz13]

Hello,
Does anyone know if all the a319 first officer position has been fulfilled for this summer ?

Not yet, it seems they still need few in France based Nantes.

[Pilotmed]

Not yet, it seems they still need few in France based Nantes.
Do you know if they still doing assessment ? I had mine a few months ago and had no contact with them except a mail telling us we have a score

[Pilotmed]

I don’t know but if they are searching for pilots they will make assessments obviously.
I had my interview beginning of march they called me just 3 days after...
You had your assessment for which position ? Type rated or not ? Was it a positive reply ?

[Pilotmed]

FO Airbus
yes Rated with hours on type (>500)
Yes positive to start end of this month

Well congratulations :)
So I think it is done for me then... Do you know if they also have recruited type rated pilot with no hours as me ?

[mermoz13]

I think yes they recruited guys like you
Sorry mate but don’t worry there are a lot of needs of pilots and you will find something. Never give up

[Pilotmed]

Thank you for the informations. Yeah it is really hard to find a job specially a TR with no hours. I actually regret my choice as I can see many cadet scheme ...

[manolotelo]

Hello, I have my interview in January 2019, maybe you an give me some tip about the assessment day !! I´m type rated A320 with 225H.
Thank you in advance

[mermoz13]

Hi,
it should be as per below :
- psychometric test (basic question of personality)
- A320 knowledge test (you can find questions database on www.smartcockpit.com)
- HR interview with standard questions like (tell me about you, strength, fails, describe you in 3 words etc etc)
- Chief Pilot interview (with some CRM questions like how would you react in a particular situation with a rude captain, review your minima and limitations)
- sim on fixed base simulator, flying skill difficult to assess as the FBS is a **** but know by heart your procedures, memory items

good luck

[manolotelo]

Thank you , really appreciate :)

[eiffel]

How much does a captain make monthly? (320/717)
Quite different figures have been mentioned above….

[AirInter]

Hi,

Basic salary 3600€ + 90€ per block hour above 40h + 50€ per Diem.
Salary is the same for both fleets. It increases every 2 years.
Those values are gross.
First type rating in the airline is charged, you will be discounted 7500€ on your salary.
First contract is for 8 months.

[eiffel]

So for let’s say 70h / 20 days 3600+30x90+50x20=7300€ before tax ?

[AirInter]

I think that during winter it is less and summer months more than that. Yearly average would be 6500 gross/month. But maybe someone from inside can give us a better view. I do not work there.

[manolotelo]

manolotelo

hi again,

do you remember what kind of exercises they do on Sim ? I didn´t receive any information about the day, just very little information !! :

thank you

[AirInter]

For NTR pilots, it was really straightforward. 2 ILS app under VMC conditions. The first one is followed by a GA. And both of them were All Eng operating.

Good luck.

[manolotelo]

Pilotmed

I m going for the interview now with volotea I'm TR Low hours and maybe me you can tell me more about the interview with the Pilots? about question personal/technical they might ask !!

thank in advance

[Divvudi]

AirInter

Hi

[PAL59]

Hi, my asessment : fix base sim A319 with the chief pilot ( very friendly) a little crew coordination , standard callouts, no emergency procedure, cross wind component,
go-around, visual, land. ( no autopilot ).

Test with 20 technical questions : aerodinamic, speeds , runways, atpl questions generally , no specific on Airbus or Boeing.

Mr Angry from Purley
Ahahahahah... lot of selfies.I personally would not get even close to this and other clownish airlines polluting the skies of Europe and socially dumping this profession by mean of employment of professional selfie takers and GoPro operators..and this even less as a passenger.

[obelix360]

Hello! After how long since your interview they called you if you pass? Type rated 570 hrs on A320. Mine was before 3 weeks and still no response...

[PAL59]

crazy people, they send me will call you in the near future.....
what means?

[A320family1]

Hi Manolo
please did you have your interview with volotea ?
if so can you please give me more information about interview
many thanks

[A320family1]

Hi dear how are you i hope you are doing well,
Do you mind if I ask you some information about Volotea interview?
technical exam and interview question ?
I am rated on a320
thank you very much

[obelix360]

Hi
Two questionnaire psychological tests. One at about 130 questions and the other about 170 questions. Nothing special.
If you are rated, one multiple choice questionnaire with 20 A320 questions. Question bank you may find on net. Questions are exactly the same!
Interview with HR and Chief pilot. Very easy and comfortable. No tech questions from Chief.
Thenafter the same day sim assessment. Engine failure after V1 or during cruise, ILS Raw Data, etc. They only need to see crm, call outs, normal job.
Expect call for job during next days. If not a call an email after a week explains you that they will call you in near future, etc...Probably failed.

P.S. Finally it was better for me. After a month i found better job, in a big and stable company, with better conditions and of course salary!

[A320family1]

Hi Obelix 360
great, Thank you very much for your feedback
I do appreciate
Have a good day
