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 ?

Globally Challenged 6th Feb 2016 03:20

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

Empty Cruise 14th Feb 2016 17:01

Capt. numbers are correct - before any add-ons. Not sure about FO numbers...

DUB is a gateway...

LiveTheAdventure 14th Feb 2016 17:56

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

dirk85 27th Feb 2016 10:21

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.

triple_2 27th Feb 2016 11:36

Same here 5500 hours 5000 airbus with two years airbus corporate jet experience. Nothing heard except the re-apply mail..

meger5 27th Feb 2016 12:42

Speaking from old-ihs experience, they have advertised TR-ONLY and hired whoever they wanted for years now, no real standard practice despite what the ad has to say.

PZ :cool:
