Hi everybody, I'm new to all this, but having waited for a few years to get an interview with these companies, like buses two have come along together. I have been offered the workshop fo easyjet and a 2nd stage with Britannia on the same day. Which is the best job and why? P.S. I know I am very fortunate. Thanks.
My recommendation:
EasyJet
1. Much better command prospects
2. More modern Company outlook
3. Better Company prospects

If you look on the 'Terms and Endearment' forum there is a thread called: 'looking for info about Britannia', which I started.
The replies I've had paint a good picture of Britannia. Also, if you do a search for 'Easyjet' and 'Britannia' on this site i'm sure you'll find a lot of information about both; good and bad. Might help you decide.
All the best,
Cam :D

I've worked for both, there is no contest - go for Britannia.

I'm sure brittania will happily move you to a different day (if you dont give the real reason), Orange on the other hand probably wont......

EJ is a crap company to work for, I have worked for both.
Go Brittania
Don't bother with the easyJet workshop. If it's not a proper interview it will be the same as the day I attended recently which was just info about the co. for those interestedin joining. They will let you go to a different one or straight to the interview stage if you "can't make it":)
I haven't heard from Brittannia yet but have been told they screwed up the application sort.... must be in the post!

I would go for Brit but it all depends on what experience you have and personal circumstances...
Regarding the workshop just make sure which one it is if it's the proper recruitment day or not, if it isn't they will oblige to move it to another one...
Hope this helps.

Does Brit still have a Final Slary pension? If yes, this has to be a very big factor in the decision process.
