has anyone had an an interview yet and if so what was it like. Was there any IFR or TECH questions or is it still a personal type interview.
I know of 2 ex-AN guys who have heard from Virgin recently; both about 40ish with 10,000hrs+. Both were contacted several weeks ago (like8wks+) and one has already been told to do his 737 endorsement. The other will be interviewed in Sept. It sounds like they have been talking to people during this 'non-recruiting ' period. Best of luck to all hopefuls:)

Grrrr ... I've already got a Command rating on the 737's, lots of multi-crew heavy jet time, I wasn't part of the 89 dispute on either side, I know a few people that work there, yet I can't get any interest from them??
What do you have do .... ??

Just a stab in the dark here but I reckon the phone calls will start the day that the boeing/airbus future fleet is announced (within 10 days hopefully!)

I wonder if the fleet announcement will be like that other airline - "Big announcement at Christmas..."
