@redsnail: thx for the info ,

I'll live with the "weird things", if he really buys the rounds !!!

You might know how it is when you check people, you think you'll give the "candidate" a weird problem, and then you're very surprised because he/she has an even weirder solution...

@natops:

I'll be checkin' the hats at NJ, and lookin' forward to a line check with you, you've been recommended.


I'm really looking forward to meeting some of you in real life sometimes...

Boll@*!s -
They wouldn't ask you to stage 2 if that were the case.
You can hold a CPL so you can earn them money, you just have to prove you have your head screwed on and are mature enough for the position.

Go for it - and if it ends fruitless, you have the experience of an interview to build on.

Good Luck!

Do any of the insiders know how the current economic situation - credit crunch, and possible recession in some countries, is affecting Netjet Europe's business projections. I know there are a lot of aircraft on order, and that presumably 'owners' are locked in for a period anyway and so might not be able to react immediately to hard times, but is there any downward adjustment in sales or sales projections? Just because a/c are on order/delivered will they neccesarily be crewed if there are no buyers?

I am currently in what may be considered a safe position. If I were to be offered a position with Netjets then weighing up the job security odds is important. Warren Buffet's business acumen is of course well known.

It has been suggested that the reason for a slow down in interviews is lack of simulator space, could there be another reason?

Question re gateway changes. How would netjets feel if you wanted to swap your gateway between two every six months?

I don't think they care. Just send the email/contact your fleet manager in good time.

We've got guys who use London for Summer and Geneva for Winter.

Generally they are ok. Some aren't so good and we're trying to get them changed. On the whole, the good ones outweigh the bad ones.
Marriot Courtyards, Hiltons, Novotels etc.

Airline travel. If the flight is more than 6 hours, you're flown business class. Recurrent flights are different in that you have the option of taking an economy flight and getting some money back. €450/flight.
Other wise, it's economy unless there's no other option.

Hi guys, any further news on recruitment at the moment?

Is lisbon telephoning candidates for pre-screening at this stage or is it on hold?

Redsnail,

Thanks for the response. Could you (anyone?) give me an idea of the difference between the basic quoted starting salary and the basic, on say, a Falcon? Thanks.

There is no difference in pay whatever fleet you are on.

Netjets application

Hi everyone,

I am getting worried about my application at netjets, I finished my 12+4 year contract in the Belgian airforce in november 2007 and sent an application in januari 2008. I still had to complete my ME/IFR and MCC course (I mentioned that in the application form).
In februari I got a call from netjets asking me if I had done everything, which was not the case, so he told me to send a mail when I was ready.

I did so a month ago but have not heard of them since.

I have already refused several job offers because I want to fly Netjets, but now I wonder if I should consider the silence as "we don't need you".

Did anyone get a phone call from NJ the last month?

Should I send my application again?

Greetings, Bart

G'day Bart,

Did you get any sort of automatic response from your last application? If not, send it again. You may want to try a follow up call to recruitment. I can't say it'll work but you might get somewhere.

Failing that, there's a lot of ex Belgian Air Force pilots with NJE, try speaking to one of them and they might be able to chase up something.

I had a missed call on my phone from Lisbon today, I was flying at the time. I hope that I have not missed out? Has anyone else been in this situation? I have just called NJ and was asked to ring in tomorrow.

Fingers crossed!!

Hi redsnail,

Yes I've received an auto-reply. I did not try to call them yet since I don't want to piss them off, I've read somewhere that they do not want candidates to call them. Anyway I do not have the phone number of recruitment.

Greetings, Bart
