Has anyone gotten to know more precisely when the first induction course would start? And how would you guys prepare for the stage 3?

Also, about the gateway system and temporary gateways, is it fair to say that something like this scenario might work: Homebase CPH, temporary base in ARN during the winter (120 days) and south of spain during the summer? That would equal to all my time (basically) being out of CPH as long as vacation etc is calculated in? Or would that be pushing it with NJE?

Hi Everyone!
First thank you for those who kindly post information about the selection process over here, it has been very useful for me.
I can confirm that the online tests are CUT-e, and can be worked on pilotest.com

I just booked for the Zoom interview on Monday. Any-one knows what to expect from this meeting? Any specific questions?

Typical competency based questions (Tell me about a time when...)​ with minor twists. Review STAR method of answering questions and how to demonstrate pilot competencies as you do that (communication, leadership, technical and pocedural knowledge, *customer service*, etc).

Usual opening questions you might expect from the interview as well as questions about your understanding of the role itself.

Make sure to have all your docs with for verification.​​​​​​

For NJ pilots, I have another random question: What is the grooming policy around beards? My previous company allowed beards as long as you were well groomed and you didn't allow it to grow too long.

No big issues there, as long as you look well groomed.

Hi everyone!

I come from a low-cost airline flying background so apart from the odd passenger announcement we didn't really get involved with pax. So, apart from loading the owners luggage, what else would one do daily at NetJets that is different from typical airline operations? Furthermore, apart from greeting the owner and saying goodbye; in what ways are the pilots involved in providing great customer service?

Thank you in advance!

Great customer service, let's see.
Pilots brief the Owners about the safety aspects of the aircraft, eg doors etc. introduce themselves and their colleagues, Inform them of the length of flight, any bumps or weather issues, check their onward transport details, tell them about the wifi.
If on an unattended fleet, show where the food and drinks are, and if time before departure, make a coffee/serve the champagne etc. If attended, introduce our ISR/CC.
If unattended, at FL100 or above, close the sonic curtain (if you have one), check the Owner is ok, Some Owners are very chatty, others, not so much... Cabin temp ok, wifi working, etc On Descent, inform how long to run, weather at destination and transport details.
Also before FL100, open the sonic curtain, tidy up the cabin in preparation for landing, stow loose items, confirm if the transport is in place etc.

Post flight, one will usually go with the Owners to their cars/FBO. Ensure all is well. Grab the paper work/fresh wx & Notams. The other will sweep the cabin for phones, wallets etc.

Then we tidy up the cabin, check the plan for the day hasn't changed. Arrange fuel, toilet service, restock and vacuum the carpets, clean every thing, check the ipads are charged etc.
Grab some food, plan for the next flight.

can anyone shed some light as to what the online interview actually entailed? The FAQ seemed a bit unclear as to what is asked during the online interview and what is asked during the panel face to face.

Thank you to everyone for all the info in this thread sofar and good luck to all in the process. With regards to Phase 3, does anyone have any info on what to expect for Day1 for 'panel exercises'? Also, what is involved in the simulator assessment and what to expect for the drug/alcohol screening on day2?

From an operational point of view, I don't understand how the roster is published 2 months in advance? Is that just for days on duty/off as I imagine the block of flying changes regularly during the block?

Thank you.

The roster shows your duty days which are made up as blocks of days into a tour.

You show up at your gateway at the briefed showtime (briefed via an app the day before). You then are at the whim of the company who arrange any required airline / hotel / ground transport (sometimes we are asked to self arrange taxis). You stay on tour until your last day of the tour when the company positions you back to your gateway.

What happens in between changes constantly so if you are the sort of person who needs to know what they are doing tomorrow while on tour - or even where you are finishing that night - then we are not the company for you.

But if you can go with the flow then you will likely love it.

Your roster will tell you when you will be at home so you can plan your personal life in advance - pretty much unheard of elsewhere in business aviation.

And when you are OFF, you actually are OFF!
