Clay111 I was at the last Auckland Assessment Day and they told us GS confirmed for end of Feb.

I have completed the online testing and now waiting. Comprehension test went well. Has anyone heard back yet? Has anyone heard of people failing the online test? Dont want to stress but cant help it

They told us that next ground school will be in January during our interview

Official offer for BNE ground school January 24th
 

I'm so excited 😊 I finally got the call!!!!! Contract and welcome pack are going to be emailed. But it's an official offer for a position with Virgin. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Ground School starts January 24th. Can't wait. Now to draft a resignation letter for my current employer.
Good luck everyone. 🍀 I'm sure you other Brisbane talent pool girls will get the call soon. Maybe after the Christmas New Years break. She did say the office was closed that week. 🎅🏼 🎄

Hi everyone! I have just received an email saying I've been successful in getting through to the online assessment. I am wondering if anybody can give any insight into the online assessment!? From my school days I remember being quite hopeless at comprehension so I'm quite worried. Is it difficult? Thanks in advance.

Congrats! Did you go to the AD on the 15/12 in SYD? I'm still waiting for the results I guess I'm not in😞

Hi Flighty111 - yes that is a confirmed start date for training, conditional on passing the medical :). I think I applied in April last year and have been in the talent pool since September/October.

Hi
Any news from your online submission
Have you hear from virgin

Clay111

nothing as yet, I'm thinking its Christmas etc and like Roamingthesky says no news is good news

Its now 6 working days tho

Anyone on here who has heard back from the online assessment?

Hey guys

Don't grt too worried if you haven't heard from them. I am positive you will hear soon because we're moving into a new year and that's generally where mass recruitment occurs. So at least you're not on hold in the middle of the year ;)

In the meantime I've done so much shopping overseas and literally need another suitcase (#noregrets). Wondering if we have to buy our own for the job so I can buy an appropriate suitcase suitable for the job and kill two birds with one stone. Hmmm...

Merry Christmas x

The recruitment department are off until after new year. That's what they told me anyway.

With the suitcase, they have guidelines. This is what the look book says. Should be 'wheelie' style preferably hardcase e.g. Samsonite. No greater than 70 cm in height, black silver or grey in colour,

So after the phone call on Monday, I finally got my contract and heaps of other paperwork to scan and send back to payroll.
I also got a look book with guidelines for everything from stocking, make up, hair uniform, jewellery, the list goes on. It's very thorough.
I've got a bit of light reading for the Christmas break too. The pre course booklet. 😬😱
I'm still sooo excited and counting down until January 24th when school starts. Same day as the kids. Lol 😂

sooooo happy for you :) praying my phone call comes in the new year 😭😭😭

Hope you had a good Christmas and happy new year
Have you heard anything more about your application?
Anyone here waiting for nz base training date
Please do reply
Thanks
