We have a new joiners course starting in January from my understanding, so the next one would be some months after that, if you weren't offered a Jan spot.

Before that, there is plenty of sucessful candidates in the holding pool, who haven’t been assigned their joining/INDOC date yet.

So for anyone who passed his/her interview in past month(s) I would expect to get their joining dates during second half of 2025.
Anything sooner is simply a nice bonus.

Great news, ant idea which fleets will be on offer to the guys&gals??

Most likely the one without APU and CC unless you are very lucky.

The last 10 pilots who joined in September either went to the Latitude or the Falcon, which has both an APU and CC.

The most recent 100 pilots, only 33 went to the Phenom. All the rest went to XLS/Latitude/Falcon/350/650.

No CC (CabinCrew) on the Latitude.

Sorry, meant to write "and/or" there.

Where do they do the type ratings? Is it all in the EU?

If we include the UK in the EU then mostly yes. But any training that would require a visa etc would be sorted by the company. Basically you wont be sent somewhere you cant go and won't be expected to sort out your own passport/visa issues to complete any training events.

Assessment Nov
 

Hi guys!!
Hope you are doing well, going to the assessment in November, I would appreciate any info.

Thanks a lot!!

Sales position
 

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen,

I've had a couple of interviews for a sales position in Europe for Netjets.
As I have found no forums specifically for non-pilots, do any of you have any info regarding this part of the company?
Thanks a lot!

Your flight simulator instructor will be happy to share those details with you. Do you need a copy of the Flight Manual for that, or U got that already?

Chevi I guess you mean the "sales" side of NetJets Europe? I assume you've looked through the Netjets websites? If not, go there. Learn about the different products (aircraft) and ways into the different programmes. There are a few commentators who offer criticisms which is worth looking at to get a rounded view.
Good luck.

I think there is an Indoc Course scheduled for 1st week Feb 25, so some of you may well have some good news soon!

November session
 

Hello, is there anybody from the November 10-11th session still waiting for the Indoc dates ?
I heard the guys that did their phase 3 in October got their indoc dates in march. Any news from your side ? Thanks

News about NetJets Europe
 

Hello everyone,

I would like to know if anyone has any news about whether NetJets Europe will be opening a hiring process soon.

On another note, does anyone have information on where I can prepare and what kind of simulator profile to expect?

I am a pilot with 5,000 hours in commercial airline operations looking to transition into corporate aviation.

Thanks and good luck to everyone!

with no official information I would expect recruitment to maybe re open later this year, possibly after the summer to plan for new intakes next year. We have 36 due to join this year if the number of deliveries happens (subject to aircraft engine parts). There’s a looming retirement wave that will need replacing. So the window will open at some point. This thread should have the applicable information about the sim.

Regarding the looming retirement, I believe it is important to consider the following so that new joiners now what to expect:

- Until 2029, the expected retirements will be around ~12 per year. It will only increase to around ~35 per year from 2029 onwards, but will not exceed 36. These figures obviously do not take into consideration people leaving for other companies (very few!), people taking part time (quite a lot!), and people leaving due to other reasons (e.g. loss of medical, early retirement).
- Currently, the number of pilots is 737, ie anyone joining now will be #738.
- In the last bidding round, you needed a seniority number below 220 to get a left seat on the Challenger 350. Obviously, anything larger than a Challenger 350 will draw even more interest.

Not that it makes a huge difference but having heard from one of the top it actually rises up to around 30+ mandatory retirements from 2026/27. And seen from another a graph with it above 30 from 2027 onwards

On the last bidding the more senior Guys did actually bid for the Latitude instead of the Challenger. :)

Dublin gateway
 

Have been doing a lot of reading on the threads about Netjets and will definitely be putting my application in when it opens next!

Would be much appreciated if someone who uses Dublin as their gateway drops me a PM just for a couple of specific questions

Italian gateways
 

Hi, does anyone know if they’ll ever add permanent gateways in Italy again?

Not a huge number of Dublin gateway-ers so chances are you might not get one here, but ask away and I can see what info I can retrieve.

Many thanks for your help, but was hoping for info more along the lines of how they manage their tax etc. so don’t bother them about that!

Can anyone recommend a website or a place to prepare for the pilot assessment at NetJets Europe? Thanks!

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know if NETJETS Europe is planning to recruit pilots in 2025? They haven’t hired since last year.
And for those of you already flying there, how’s the cockpit atmosphere? Are there any command upgrades coming up?

Hi, from what I can gather, upgrades have slowed down, maybe even halted for the time being. Same for recruitment. Reason for this is slower growth than anticipated.

Recruitment has paused because of a delay of aircraft that were due to arrive this year. Half that issue is due to P&W engine parts specifically for the Challenger 650 deliveries that were due, and the other half because of a slow down in aircraft sales, so some aircraft have been delayed. Because of this, a planned new INDOC of new joiners that was pencilled in for September has been postponed, this decision was made in January. Because of that, upgrades for this year didnt happen, after having upgraded up 80 captains in the last 3 years.

I would imagine the ball will start rolling again from next year for both.

My resignation kicks in 31st Aug. So there's 1 spot now available :D

Reminds me of the other thread about having to retire at 65 - you old people get out so the selfish young guys can get a job as well! :P

*edit for miss-spelling "young"

I'm going early. :D 60yo. So I can enjoy the beach :D

Yes, you were even more generous to our GEN Z pilots!

Congrats!
seems like quite a few deciding to move on early these days.

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have any updated information about possible pilot recruitment at NetJets Europe? I’ve noticed that the Kura website has been under maintenance for several weeks, and the last recruitment round was last year. Any news about new aircraft or expansion?

Also, if anyone can recommend any website or resource to prepare for the selection tests, it would be much appreciated.

Happy flights!

Will restart at some point but I can't imagine anytime in the next 6 months or so minimum.

Yes, I believe we had a planned intake for after the summer, but at the begining of the year it was already decided to hold off due to delays in aircraft

Anyone has information on terms of conditions?
Would like to know how’s the package like besides salary.
From what I’ve read it looks like a very nice company to make a career in

Just scroll up, it has been mentioned on previous pages. https://www.pilotjobsnetwork.com/jobs/Netjets_Europe also provides some good information.

Thank you for answering so fast, does netjets offer licence insurance, uniform and accommodation during type rating and sim?
haven’t found anything on that.
I’ve met a few pilots and they all seem very happy with the company
