Jetstar Aus/NZ Positions

[qfpaypacket]

Hours in OZ at about 900hrs per year.
Average line Capt pay 250,000 - 275,000
Average line FO 160,000 - 180,000
A few bonuses and a fair bit of flying in there...........

[framer]

Are Jetstar Aus pilots really doing 900hours a year or is that just Melbourne based pilots?

[Requestflyby]

Lots of hours around at the moment, most of the hours are on the east coast. Some SYD FOs are going to hit 200k with overnight allowances included, not including Super.

[LongLats]

Looks like requests for the first round of psychometric testing have been sent out...

Do you know of people actually receiving psychometric test invites?

[SHVC]

Redundancy??? You clearly don't have a clue think.

[Going Nowhere]

At least 1 ATR pilot is now in QLink

[SHVC]

So because "at least one ATR pilot has gone to QLink" that means guys are loosing their jobs?! Not one ATR,ejet or 73 pilot has been asked or offered redundancies.

He/She just jumped ship for his own reasons.

[The Green Goblin]

A couple of years back guys were jumping qlink for VAR. in fact some guys turned down JQ for it.

If only you could see into the future.

[SpyderPig]

I know one guy who's jumped from VARA to Air Naru. From what he tells me they are hardly leaving in droves or threatening redundancy. What type of experience are the people getting replies working with?

[das Uber Soldat]

Anyone done the compass psychometric testing yet? Which exercises did they include?

[Chips n gravy]

Hey,

Any updates on guys/girls getting interviews at JQ lately? It's all gone a little quiet! Surely they must be running low on FO's with Qantas starting to take pilots back??

[ANCDU]

Hey Chips there were a few groups doing interviews at the Qantas training centre at Airport West recently, can't give you numbers its second hand info but apparently experienced applicants not cadets.

4 did the assessment day Wednesday, 4 went through today. Wonder how many they will take :o

Has anybody on here been invited or heard from them? I find it a bit weird that people seem to vaguely know of people progressing through the recruitment process but I'd love to hear from someone directly who's had contact from Jetstar since throwing their application in.

Do you have any evidence of that though? I'm told the entireity of VARA applied and to my knowledge none of them have been offered interviews either.

[SHVC]

All the VARA guys had phone interviews which is more than what the QLink guys have got.

[das Uber Soldat]

No joke. Well fair enough then. Everyone I know who went to the assessment day worked for smaller operators, had between 4000 and 4500 hours and are fo's

[SpyderPig]

that's weird, no ones taking sick days where I am haha

Care to explain how you arrived at this number?
