Hi
First of all to all the NJ pilots contributing to this thread with info.
I definitely looks like a nice place to work.
I had my online interview on Sunday and have been invited today for Stage 3 in the UK.
If anyone else is going or have already a WhatsApp group or anything can send me a DM.
Good luck to all that applied.

Thanks for great info all. Still haven’t got any response on my application. Anyone else in the same situation? Has anyone received PFO on initial application or later in the process.
Good luck during upcoming assessment days for those of you participating!

Are these additional aircraft from the 2.5 billion investment made this year?

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.

Also, with fleet movement how does it usually work at NJE? Do FOs on the lighter jets get command there first before moving RHS on the long-range aircraft or do you progress RHS onto the bigger jets, then back to light jets for command? Is there a bidding or selection process involved in moving fleets/upgrading?
Thank you.

Thank you. I can imagine the duty blocks are ever-changing but was just a bit confused how the roster was published so far in advance, but makes sense for OFF days. Do the duty blocks ever change or is the 6/5 always consistent (ie. can you plan next year based on your expected pattern)?

Once the roster is published though, your OFF days are exactly that - unless you choose to volunteer to work extra days (€650+ per day initially for FO’s which rises to something like €850 once you’ve done a certain number of extended days).
Generally you join on one of the smaller fleets then progress up in cabin size (you can bid for fleets and it’s based on seniority). Some people are happy staying where they are. Then you tend to go back to the small fleets when you upgrade.
However - in all but the most extreme circumstances, once you upgrade you stay on the LHS for any future fleet changes.

NETJETS EUROPE APPLICATION
I received an email two weeks ago from KURA AIRLINE RESOURCING saying that my application was on final stage and due to the high demand on this application, the process will last a few months more. They told me they would send me an email with any update but they haven't send me anything yet.
Is anyone in the same situation as me?
What would I expect? May I contact them?
thanks

Pabloteix, thanks for the update. Same message as I got but with slightly different wording. In my case, I believe the application was in review and they would revert back eventually. Given EatMyShorts' message, I guess they are continuing to work through applications and candidates in various stages of the process. I'll give it another week or so before I follow up. But it seems to be very few PFO so I don't know what conclusion to draw.
We'll keep our fingers crossed - good luck.

Unlike Ryanair for example (where I believe your 5/4 never changes) you will sometimes get a 7 day tour when you have to go for recurrent in the US or your vacation impacts the roster etc. So the general rule is 6/5 but it will change over the year. What is fixed is the number of days you are contracted for (you join on 200 contract days which includes your 22 vacation days). So the total number of duty, training and vacation days won’t exceed that. Once you’ve been in the company a while you can bid to change your roster pattern to work more or less days in the year - with pro-rata adjustment to your salary and vacation entitlement.

A rather pre emptive query for those who are UK based drivers. Are the contracts issued UK contracts and paid in GBP? Given Brexit I am scratching my head regarding how one can be given a EURO contract......

Interview farnborough
Hi all,
Very interesting topics are discussed here and I thank all of you who give us an insight of the Netjets conditions.
I as well am waiting for a response of the company on this August FO vacancy.
Has anyone had a call or email yet as a response to the application?

Hi guys,
in the case you are doing the 26-27th interview, I have checked the commuting options and will be driving a car from LTN to FAB on 25 through LRH. Then FAB to LTN on 27th eve.
given the expensive transportation options, feel free to drop me a PM if that could match your commuting preference 😉

The weird thing won’t be apparent to you yet is that we are (apart from our Portuguese colleagues I believe) all employed by the London based NetJets Management Limited 🤯. Getting local contracts is a very hot topic for the union currently to ensure that local social security is paid this giving seamless access to local services … we are not quite there yet but maybe soon (I think there may even be some pending legislation that will finally force the situation anyway).
Anyway - to answer your question. Your contract will be fixed in euros and you can choose monthly whether you want the company to send your bank the euros (and allow them to convert them to your home currency) or the company will convert it for you (they publish the exchange rate they will use about a week in advance and this will be the average of what the exchange rate was for the previous month) and you can get paid directly in your own currency.
You will be able to download a euro payslip and one in your home currency.

Hello all. Experienced Jet Capt here, B737/E145 and quite a lot of private charter work for VIPs etc. I applied for FO and received an email apologising for delay in contacting me and it may take some time to process my application. Since then nothing at all, does this mean get lost? Have people received PFO’s from first stage?

Brexit and the eurozone are slightly different as I’m sure you are aware and the UK is one of several gateway countries with their own currency. There are (according to my mortgage broker) many more USD paid UK Tax payers than EUR and Brexit has nothing to do with them either 😜.

, but it seems like the company is really flexible as it is. Do non euro-currency pilots typically just take the pay in euros and convert locally, get the company to convert, or change according to what would be most beneficial that month?

A quick question, "EASA ATPL (A) Licence or EASA CPL (A) with ATPL Theory Certificate" Can anybody specify if they require something else than an actual copy of the license? I have an EASA ATPL (A) but I can not remember a separate document with the theory certificate? I might just be getting into details too much.
