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. |
Can anyone shed some light in the phone interview?
|
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 ,
hope you have passed your assessment with VJ... I will have my assessment with VJ very soon... I have already passed the phone interview. Now I´m looking to get some more details about the second stage. Maybe someone of you has joined the interview already and can give me some informations about the written test, face 2 face interview and the simulator??? would be highly appreciated and I would be very thankful!!! If you have any informations just send me a private mail or post it here Thanks a lot |

Vistajet
Hi guys,
anyone went to the second stage of their selection process? Any infos? Thanks |
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 |
Hi guys. Just for my knowledge, the ones getting interviews are type rated? I am trying to get in with 5500 hours but untyped and mostly airline..
|
|
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 :ok: )

Interview + second stage
Hello every body,
Just finished my phone interview. When they will send the email regarding today's interview? Anyone know about second stage? What will be about? Thank you all.:O:ok: |
Anybody has an idea about the assessment in Berlin ?
|
Probably it's just sour grapes on my part - but my theory is that given the package is amongst the worst in the world for flying similar types, Vista prefer non-rated applicants that they can bond rather than rated guys who are treading water till something better comes up (I know 2 of their guys in this position) to save wasting money on OPCs / Sim / general training costs.
But then I'm cynical like that 😝 The package on PPJN is accurate I'm told. |
@pipposky.
Yep. been there for 4 years. Saw steady improvements over time. Still more needed but they will get there. It's a very different niche market and totally unlike anything I've done before (35yrs in aviation). Having grown from a small Austrian/German company into a Global operator with 56+ aircraft causes a steep learning curve. Unhelpful EU-OPS regulations and dealing with 140 different NAA's is no easy task. On the whole the crews I fly and deal with are OK guys and gals doing their best in challenging conditions and circumstances. Malta office is helpful in organizing things but in the end it will be up to the crew, somewhere many timezones and cultures away to make things work. In the end Vistajet will be what you want it to be. Good if you're willing to do the extra bit and stand up for what's right. Usually they listen. Bad if what you want is an airline job with everything taken care of and looked after. It's up to you!:roll eyes: |
Hi all,
I am considering applying. Here is the starting payscale as per pilotsjobnetwork late 2015. Could anyone from experience please confirm these figures? Capt base--84000 for challenger fleet. 94000 for global fleet FO base-- 45000 for challenger fleet. 48000 for global fleet Duty Pay-- €33-€65 per duty Also could somebody please shed a light on the taxation, What should a starting FO expect to take home after tax per month. Could anybody confirm whether Dublin is a VistaJet Gateway airport? Any first hand info would be greatly appreciated. Regards, LTA |
Capt. numbers are correct - before any add-ons. Not sure about FO numbers...
DUB is a gateway... |
Thank you for the info. :ok:

Vista Recruitment
Hey all
I'm a rated CL30 hold both FAA & EASA. Applied 12th January and I've heard nothing except to re-submit application. Anyone else in the same boat ? Cheers |
They are hiring a lot of non rated pilots as far as I know, these last weeks.
They probably try to retain people with the bond they have, I see no other reason. |
Same here 5500 hours 5000 airbus with two years airbus corporate jet experience. Nothing heard except the re-apply mail..
|
Strange, in their advert last month they specifically requested typed guys !
