hi volorovescio,
can I ask you a little bit about the two day recruitment (english test, atpl topic, sim scenario)?

I had the phone interview last week and they told me they would get back in touch for the 2 days recruitment dates, I am still waiting!
How long before did they contact you for the dates?
Thanks for the help
Ciao

Hey, I'm also waiting for the dates to go for the tests. received an e-mail that the phone interview went very well but that they don't have days available at the moment. Normally I can expect to go end of april.

Also curious to hear some news from people who went already, please post some info so we can prepare.

Thanks,

CaravanDriver

Hi.

Does anyone think I am likely to recieve a call from Netjets any time soon? I submitted an application online about 4 weeks ago. I am tempted to send in another as I would love an interview at Netjets. I meet all the entry requirements.

Give me some advice guys, please!!

Cheers

CaravanDriver

To pax on the run,

I was called 1 week after sending my application.

Greetz,

Volorovescio

They gave me the dates immediatly after the phone interview, but don' t worry, they are very busy and if they told you they are gonna call you they will.
The two days I had were hard:
English: 1) Clearences to copy with Q&A
2) Normal phrases with Qs with answers yes, no, or not reported
CBT: More then 200 psico questions ;
FD following with joistick while a red light was flashing and you have to identify where it was while you set the autopilot.
ATPL: Can be anything; V1, Swept wings, 4 segments, Toda, Tora, etc.
SIM: They evaluate your decision making in general; you make any flight with a malfunction plus you make 1 or 2 ILS app.
Then the final interview, most of it personal, some meteo Qs, some situations Qs.
Bye, bye.

Volorovescio - do you think all that was completely necessary to assess your suitability? What on earth was wrong with the previous system of interview & sim ride?

Volorovescio

I think that they have a lot of applications and they are able to make a big selection.
Anyway I had an excelent impression on them: very professionals.
I don't know the previous criterias.
Now I' m waiting patiently the aswer: positive I hope.
Otherwise I'm gonna be sad .

Bye, bye.

Volorovescio is right. The new system will sort the goats from the sheep so that they can recruit a new breed of super pilot*.

Which means that those of you already in the company are rubbish









*One who can jiggle a joystick while having red lights flashed at him

Hey... who is going to fly the 7x's ? I mean copilot wise ?...

the one's that will learn that when red light flashes it means they lost priority, for 30 seconds.... It is all a game after all...

I am very happy for you my friend, I wish you the best of luck! Anyone working for Netjets know whether it will be prudent to chase up original application?

I had my phone interview at the start of Feb and was told late april or start of May for the Super New Style interview. By the sounds of it So has alot of other pilots. Has any of those guys heard back yet.

CaravanDriver

No, I'm also still waiting. The e-mail they sent me just tels me that I can come for interview etc but no dates available at the moment. They will take contact again as soon as new dates are available.
Just be patient I think and study in the mean time.

Greetz,

Volorovescio

Don't worry guys.
I know it's hard, but just be patient and the call will come.

Bär

I think we are already 3 guys with the same E-Mail.

So let´s wait together!

CaravanDriver

I just recieved the e-mail with the dates. Replied immediatly, will go 22/23 May.
Only place they gave me was Farnborough, pitty, is not so handy

Bär

Also got the mail.
Any idea of the best way to go to Farnborough?

gmac1977

Horse and Cart! Always recommended!

lindbergh

Anyone going for the interviews May 20-21?

Volorovescio

Don' t worry friends.
Farnborough is no that bad: if you land in LGW just take the train to Farn Main station and you are there; 60 mins by train and then the station is only 5 mins from the airport.
I took the taxi since my plane was in late and it was the fastest and simpliest way to go but it costs 65 pounds.
When you will be there you will find a lot of nice people.
You will NOT have any prolblems.
