shooting stars?
Hi, my friend, who works for VB, is nominating me as a shooting star (someone they know who they think would be good as cabin crew for VB). She wasn't sure whether by nominating me that it would just get me invited to an assessment day or you go straight past that and get an actual interview. Anyone know?

Star quality
Hey gorge,
The term is Blue star.
A staff member nominates you through the internal website, They have to sware to God you are a potential virgin and all that.
At the same time you need to apply online at staffcv.
You will be rocketed to the top of the list you little que jumper you.
as soon as they are recruiting again you will be one of the first to be contacted.
There are no g/tees you will get beyond the assessment day, however you have a head start.
Don't forget to read all the previous posts on here and pack your Virgin flair on the day!
bon chance

Well I didn't get into VB.
I don't know why because I thought I was fully prepared. Out of about 60 of us only like 10 got in, one of which was already employed with Pacific Blue (but he was a really nice guy!).
I htink I was too nervous in the initial interview - it's all I can think of.
12 months to wait, don't think I'll even re-apply. They said they are taking heaps of internal staff for the positions anyway.
We barely stood a chance.

I heard they are opening ADL base instead of PER?? Any truth to that rumour?
Feasibility studies currently underway to determine if 3rd base is required and where it would be - and I can tell you now that PER is definately the most operationally logical place to open a base - no reason to open one in ADL - there is already more than sufficient coverage there from the MEL base...
Cheers and good luck!

Actually, it wasn't until long after I'd made that last post I realised that you might have thought I was referring to you, but alas, no!
Here, I go, off on a tangent!
Basically, in the town where I live, I part-own a small store, and a lovely young lady came in the other day looking for some help with an outfit she was wearing to a DJ interview, and later, an EK one.
I asked her if she knew of the existance of PPRuNe, to which she hadn't, and provided her the details, and told her to take a look in CC forum.
I then noticed that the DJ recruitment thread had slipped down the pages of the forum, and rather than explain how she search, I did what I subsequently did
Hope that makes sense. And if the young lady is reading this, then all the best for your interviews, and I hope you found some helpful information in here
Ok, tangent over
GG!

The internal recruitment has been ongoing or months. Many guest services and pit crew staff have transferred across.
If you apply for a ground job, you can trasfer to cabin crew after 9 months. There is an extremely high number of staff who do this!!!

Hi all,

Would really appreciate anyone's help, my interview is in a couple of weeks.
Cheers, Rooster

Hi Rooster boy,
As a female I can only give you advice on the type of outfit that I have seen progressed to the next round.
I don't think you need to go out and buy a suit if you don't have one, but I would suggest very neat casual or business shirt and tie.
Perhaps something you would wear to an expensive restaurant on a first date kinda thing.
Hope this helps.
