Jetstar Aus/NZ Positions
When I started back in 2007 I had waited for four months between the final interview and any further correspondence at all, it became clear after some time that in fact no news is sometimes good news. Eventually they did call with the good news.
Tough wait but hang in there, the wheels of Jetstar recruitment move slowly.

I know what people say about hanging in there, but I have been on the hold file since Feb with no word. I heard at the interview they were looking at starting 12-20 a month. Does anyone have an idea of the actual numbers of new starts in the last 6 months?
There is a sim down at Ansett and will be down a sim for longer than what was first thought, which means the in house training is struggling to be done - this takes priority over induction training.
February isn't all that long to wait, the guys I started with had all been in the hold file for over 12 months. They will call when they call, in the meantime don't put your life or career on hold waiting for the call. There are plenty of options out there and if you get snapped up into something else before you get the call, then you would be stupid not to take it.

From what I've heard the courses for this year are completely full. This is secondhand info, but I'm sure someone with inside knowledge can confirm this, or correct me.

Are the brakes still on recruitment with the current trouble finding training slots even across the pond at J* NZ? Will the website be taking applications again this year?

I was called by the Qantas group in regards to interest in other parts of the company, after the recruiter asked if i was interested she made mention that there will be no more sims booked this year for Jetstar past the august course (which has been filled), at this stage.

I went through psychometric numerical etc and phone interview..got told that was successful and to expect a call for a full interview..that was a month ago..no further correspondence
What I don't understand is why all this recruiting is occurring? I know Jetstar has been losing pilots to QF but I would not have thought that those numbers are large enough to warrant two years and counting of massive recruitment. Normally expansion of the airline generates that level of recruitment and that is not taking place either. Anyway good for the pilots getting selected.
