The basic schedule is 17-13 but they can ask for an extra day at the beginning or the end making it 19-11.

You will have to do up to 20 training days in your free days.

Work on free days is payed per quarter and per year up to 600 euros a day for captains. They pay for 12 of the 20 training days.

How do they determine fleet placement? I assume the Global is the preferred fleet for most applicants. Are there any downsides to the Global fleet other than some inevitable jet lag?

17 on / 13 off. Fixed. Occasionally start a day early / home a day late. More likely is home a day early. LPC/OPC/CRM on days off. And 3 days a year where the company flies you to London or Malta for Strategy Day madness. Either work Christmas or new year, alternating.

Day off payments for extra days worked per quarter and per annum. There is a maximum number of training days paid, but essentially only a factor if you're on a company funded type rating.

Many gateways available / negotiable -- must be cost effective and workable with social security etc.

Proven business model, job security, variety of crew and customers, friendly office, lots of flying.

Those wages someone posted look nearly accurate. 'Base' is until 6 months after FLC, then 'Top'. Up to 3% performance bonus. Loss of licence insurance. Bonus payment every 5yrs. Uniform, vaccinations, licence, medical, etc paid.

Hope that clears a few things up.

11c, thanks for the info mate.

Could you tell me about FO and capt salary?

How long do you normally wait before getting a call for assessment? I applied on line a few months ago and no news (good news?) ?

Do you get an email to confirm your application has been sent successfully?

Hi DJ,
just went trough the phone interview and been invited for the second stage. You'll basically have to speak about yourself and then they'll introduce you the company system.
Quite an interesting talk.
I'm looking for someone that can tell me what is the next step all about...
Best of luck

TR is no guarantee.

I was current with 1200 hours on the CL30 and got the PFO.

They do - but it was something like 6-8 weeks after I applied (I don't recall which as I had long since secured something else / better )

Interview Info and 2nd Stage

Hi Flash19,
I'm going to perform my phone interview this week.
Can you confirm that the phone interview is just a normal conversation and nothing in particoular? Did they tell you immediately about second stage? If yes, where you should attend it?
Thank you very much and good luck.

Vista

Hi pipposky,
nothing particular and nothing technical. I just spoke about my working history and he spoke about Vista.
Really cool and straightforward. The second stage is in Berlino and they'll let you know by mail.
Did anybody go to the second stage and would like to share his/her experience?

Cheers
