Hi Lapon, yes I’m sure I got an email from my union regarding the matter. Company approached unions. Early days but the idea is everyone can fly with everyone all on same conditions. Hope that helps.
|
Pretty close Lapon. |
Word around town is a 15% increase over the next 3? years?
|
Thread bump.
Just curious if Jetconnect stil dont pay you or for accommodation during training? |
With the latest round of advertising from JC, I'm curious to know if anyone has been approached for an interview? I've applied a couple of times and am confident I'm low on their 'desireables' list but Im wondering whether its an Expressions of interest collection or if they re actually hiring? TIA

A friend was told that the 1000 multi crew requirement is non negotiable. How they find enough applicants with this experience baffles me.

The requirement isn’t even 1000 multi crew it’s 1000 multi hours. So 500 command from GA then 1 year RHS at a regional. Quite low minimums for a 737 gig in this part of the world. Why do they find it so hard to get pilots? |
When you see the pay and find out you dont get paid for first 3 months it is crazy that regional TP guys with 2 years experience go for it.
|
Climb150 - their first officers are paid and accommodated from day 1. |
don't know much about the Jetstar conditions, however I completed a Jetconnect interview and was shocked at what I heard. Give them 17k upfront then go and put yourself up in Melbourne while you do the TR. Fly Auckland do a few weeks of ground training and then start your line flying about 6-8 weeks after commencement. ALL WHILE NOT GETTING PAID. I couldn't believe my ears when they told me that. Although you get the 17k back when your CTL, the fact of the matter was no pay for up to 11 weeks (rough guide depending on how quick they get you through the system). Then they bond you for 2 years. How can anyone afford to do that? I did not want to condone that type of treatment so I said thanks but no thanks. |

It’s not so baffling when you realise their ideal candidate is a regional turboprop captain. Not a flying school instructor with plenty of circuit time. |
Since the NZ Jetconnect AOC has been closed down all new recruits are paid from day1. Go to a Syd and do the HR induction with all new mainline SOs. Then off to Melbourne to commence the endorsement, I think the bond is now 3 yrs though.

Bonds arent legally enforceable so wouldn't stress. Obviously you'd shoot yourself in the foot as far as the QF group goes and you'd be nuts to go to VA so I guess its a moot point.

So this is no longer true?

Has the pay changed as well?

This is not an Australian company we're talking about. |
JQNZ and JC are very similar on pay and conditions. However the best over here is arguably VANZ, significantly ahead of JC and JQ though both have cea's due for renewal soon so wait and see what happens there. If you're an ozzy just looking to head over grab the jet time and run then you might as well not waste your time - sounds like all 3 are putting a lot of effort into stamping that out with a good focus on commitment.
