You'll probably find that no-one in JQ Domestic is talking at the moment.
We are all in shock and dismay at the past week of rain delays (more that 2 hours each day) unscheduled overnights, abuse, demands ( and that is not from passengers) and general imcompetence.

Melbourne seemed to do OK with the Commonwealth games....

Hey guys,
I just got an e-mail from Team Jetstar inviting me to attend the Hobart base interview in March. I have a few questions that you guys might be able to answer. I've read all the posts here and am still a little confused.
1. If I pass the assessment day, where will the training be done?
2. I currently live in Melbourne, does Jetstar provide guidance and help with relocating if I am a successful applicant?
3. Being close to 40 years old make any difference to them?
4. On your roster off days, can you return home on a non rev basis?
Any answers to my questions would be greatly appreciated. I am looking forward to the interview and hope that my years of experience in many environments will be appreciated by the Jetstar team.

Has anyone got an interview in Melbourne for Jetstar Cabin Manager on Monday 25th Feb? I used to fly for Qantas s/haul , but left because I want to fly for Jetstar . Just wondering if someone could give me an idea of duties as far as overnights etc go and what sort of wage i may be looking at?

Hopeful
Hey there,
Firstly I would like to say 'wow' I only just discovered this thread and I think its such a fantastic thing! If only I had known of it before I went into my second interview!...
Secondly, since now I have been accepted through to the second round (pheeew!) I was just wondering if anybody went to the most recent 'Morning Tea' (Second Interview) for Jetstar Cabin Crew on February 8th?
I know it's only been one business day but i'm really excited and impatient to hear if I got through!
Does anyone (particularly anyone who has already been accepted) know how long it usually takes for Jetstar to get back to you?

Dont get your hopes up!!! It could take at least 6 weeks for them to get back to you. Dont quit your job, like some people on this thread have - thats my advice for the day

A320GB Thanks for getting back to me . Four to six weeks? 
I guess I will just have to be patient. As for quitting my job, thats something I definitley can't afford to to until I get a definite offer, so fingers crossed!!
I'm guessing that you already work for Jetstar?

Active Hold list
Hi A320 galleybitch,
I went to the Dec 07 assessment day and got through all stages of recruitment. Now I'm on the active hold list Melbourne based LHCC for JQ,
any idea how long I have to wait before I start GS?
Cheers

I am confirming it. PattyStacker - you know who i am (so you know its true)
Its a three page document given to FAs only inviting them to transfer across to Team JQ before a certain date and offering a $1000 cash bonus as an incentive.
It says in the document that you are entitled to take across with you all your seniority, benefits etc as per your current agreement - so this includes your Long Service Leave, Holidays etc etc
I dont believe CMs have been offered this - i wonder if they will let me go across to Team Jetstar Part Time? Haha
Most people that i saw today in the crew room think its a bit of a joke and that it cant be that good if they have to offer money to entice us to go across.
i agree. i can understand them opening it up for current crew to transfer across if they want to experience a bit of 'international flying' but offering a cash bonus kind of makes it seem dodgy to be honest.

all jetstar employees should seroiusly consider the offer.
i.e. $1000 bonus to move from base pay $38000
to new '' '' $33000
= - $5000
this is a no-brainer....now to get my tongue out of my cheek

Ahhhh....ok. Today is Wedneday, I went for my second interview last Friday. I keep checking my email but nothing! I'm guessing I have either NOT got through or they are just taking their sweet a** time to get back to me.....
There has to be SOMEONE out there who also went to most recent morning tea?
Anyone ?
I'm so impatient
