There were 48 slots avail for that week, guess they went locked up pretty quick.
The ones who couldn’t book probably will get offered another week, along with the ones who can’t attend that week for personal/professional reasons.
it also looked weird to me that so few slots were offered considering the amount of positions to be filled.
I also wonder if some will be offered interview (stage 2) dates in the upcoming future, as it would make sense based on raw numbers,
again, rumour and salt
edit : seems like some dates are being offered in November

I figured as much. Thanks! I'm not one for pushing the rules to their limits, so someone will end up disappointed when I get a response after stage 3, one way or the other!

I can see why they want you near the airport on your duty days, but why wouldn't a hotel be good enough?
I'm currently about 1.20h from a gateway, so would this be okay or would I need to move closer?

Maybe a NJ pilots can correct me on this, but I figure that NJ is protecting itself from EASA/local authorities by having something on record showing that they did their due diligence in ensuring that pilots are respecting FTLs when it comes to commuting. I get it tbh, even though that would be somewhat inconvenient to many pilots (including myself to a small extent). But it's not really the time to focus on that now. We first have to get through stage 3! NJ really looks like a fantastic place to work at. I'm trying very hard not to get too excited but failing to do so. I guess I need to apply that excess energy to prepping.

could you please clarify? in my Kura Zoom interview I was told that we're expected to move to within 1h of a gateway airport and can't just stay at a nearby hotel or something the day before or during standbies. I just want to know if there's any chance of me staying in the area I'm in if I get the job or not, because my offer on a house just got accepted and I would like to mentally prepare to potentially disappoint the sellers

In 14 years I never started a tour with someone tired....maybe bored from too many days off, but not tired 😁

Interesting. Does it default to one hour or are pilots meant to report it? I guess with airline flying duty time was never an issue, only flight duty time.

The one hour rule comes from the standby requirements : if you are on home standby and you are called out you have 45 mins from the phone call to prep and leave the house and then 1 hour drive to the airport ie 1hr45 mins total. Exactly where on the airport you have to get to isn’t clear …..car park, checkin desk, FBO ?? However, in 14 years I have never once been called with minimum 1h.45. If you live 1.20 away then I wouldn’t sweat it too much.

This is straight out of the omA. With relation to Gateways they are only active on first day during and last day of tour. Outside of them days you can do what you like. Now how you sweet talk Netjets is your decision. Friend family crappy shoebox or something will do if you need to say you live near your gateway. Generally they are quiet flexible, but living in Plymouth and using heathrow might not help your cause.
