Lhr Ww-crc

Well I have decided to do one now as I live abroad as I can imagine it will not be so straight forward. If it does come back in a week or so and therfore is not valid when I start my course then I will just have to pay again at the 4 week mark! I just dont want to risk leaving it till 4 weeks before and not getting it on time if there are any complications!! It would be just my luck !!

advice needed...

i am thinking of applying to b.a, and was just wondering how far back they need references?? i left school over 20 years ago and imagine those references would be hard to get....do they just require a few years references or longer? any advice much appreciated....

Regarding CRC (Criminal Record Check). Don't do it too soon as there is an expiration date. I think it's two months! Several people on my course have been asked to do it again as it expired before they were able to issue identification passes to them! I would advise you to wait until a month and a half before your training begins. That should be efficent time enough!

References are required of the past five years.

WW temp roster

So when you get your rosters on WW 11 month temp, is it 100% set in stone? (i.e no swapping of trips or days with other crew)

ef hold pool

Hi kikko,

I've not had a call yet :-(

The phones have been very quiet since the new year .... I really don't know when that call is going to come ...

Cheers

Lhr Ef

Phoned up recruitment this morning, asked whether there were any more courses in the pipeline for EF, got the same old 'we don't know anything, you'll have to wait until one of our project managers call you'

Hey guys, i'm new here so please be nice

I've got an assessment day booked for BA on 14th Jan at 0830, is anyone else attending on that date?

Also, possibly a stupid question but i've seen it around and i can't fathom it... along with the job in question i have seen the letters WW mentioned and i'm not sure what they stand for.. anyone like to help me out on that?
