thanks in advance
No, this is not accurate.

We have a given set of official gateway airports. Crew members must choose one of them as a permanent gateway. During the summer season, e.g. from June until September (occasionally they get extended through October), a small number of summer gateways can be used during this timeframe only. This year our summer gateways are Palma (LEPA), Athens (LGAV) and Faro (LPFR). They can be used if you want to place your family at or near these summer gateways during your kids' summer vacation and you start and end your tours there to spend as much time with them as possible, while not having to take vacation days.

The official list of permanent gateway airports can be found in the FAQ document at KURA: https://kuraairlineresourcing.co.uk/...024/07/FAQ.pdf

Yes, and no problem from the companies side.

I'm surprised that a couple of respected contributors liked this comment. I think the response given is wrong and could lead to real problems down the road. If you intend to use a temporary gateway as your de facto permanent gateway then please get it in writing from the company that they are ok with it. I think you won't get that statement. They know that social security needs to be paid in the country where a crew member regularly starts and finishes their duty. If the temporary and permanent gateways are in the same country then this should not be a problem, If they are not then this could become very problematic at some point. The term gateway is not legally defined but the term homebase is:

“home base” means the location, assigned by the operator to the crew member, from where the crew member normally starts and ends a duty period or a series of duty periods and where, under normal circumstances, the operator is not responsible for the accommodation of the crew member concerned;

Well, it depends on the context. Obviously there are certain rules for how many days you have to use your permanent gateway. We only count the off-days that need to be calculated/assumed to having been at your permanent gateway, so it is not a big problem to spend a few tours at another gateway per year, keeping it all legal. If it's within the same country, it is even easier as it won't have an impact. Our colleagues who live in Ibiza and Mallorca come to my mind, who need to use Barcelona as their permanent gateway. So far, Catalunya is part of Spain, so no problems.

No debate about same country. That's not the issue. But if one starts and ends more tours at their "temporary" gateway in another county than at their permanent one then problems must be expected down the road. The home base is where a crew member normally (i.e. most times) starts and ends their duty and where the operator is not responsible for accommodation. If that's not in the country of your permanent gateway then social security might become an issue at some point.

Correctly, it might become an issue, but so far - from what I gathered after talking to colleagues - it seems to be limited to Scandinavia. And you are right that the use of temporary gateways in countries different from one's permanent gateway needs to be limited. The office has all the details, they don't belong here, I guess.

If you make it to the assessment and don’t make it then just ask Kura, you will absolutely get it. With the online interview you may not but you can still ask Kura. It won’t be offered unless you ask for it.

if you don’t get as far as an interview I doubt you’ll get feedback but chances are it was an issue with experience or preparation.

Full time jobs only. You may be able to reduce to 80% or less after some time in the company. But you can never ever work as a commercial pilot somewhere else while employed by Netjets Europe.

thanks. I wouldn’t want to work elsewhere. Just to spend more time at home.

Depends if you view the 6/5 roster as part time already. I do compared to some airline patterns. that's 4 days away from home. I don't class day 1 or 6 as away fully.

Hi everyone,

I had my interview with 2 Kura senior recruiters.

First of all, I had chosen an earlier date but due to a last-minute roster change, I had to reschedule. I was a little bit concerned about the image that such a move would reflect but in fact, I quickly received a rescheduling confirmation. They seem to be very supportive.

One of the recruiters will conduct the interview, asking questions, while the second will turn off his camera/mic and note your answers.

About the atmosphere: very nice individuals who genuinely would like to know more about you. No need to pretend, just be comfortable with yourself.

Competency-based interview so you can expect scenario questions to evaluate your CRM and what you know/expect of NETJETS and the corporate job.

I suggest to not be afraid to speak too much (giving extra details) rather than too little.

If you are not familiar with the STAR (situation - task - action - result) technique, I suggest that you take some time to tailor your answers accordingly.

The interview will last about 45-50min and they will offer you some time to ask questions.

Feedback expected within 2-5 days.

Recruitment seems to lean on the EMB505 fleet, of course, depending on NJE needs at the time.

Overall, I had a great time with very kind interviewers.

Best of luck to you!

That's not a question for this forum/topic. It will be down to individual circumstances on whether you are actually entitled to a social security number. You're better off using google.

The experience you had does not surprise me. I love working here. There’s always rooms for improvement and there are negotiations currently underway. But hopefully it will work out and this will be a a genuinely awesome place to see out your career.
