Hi, I was wondering if you could ellaborate a little more on the selection process. I have an interview on Friday with Silverjet and I have no experience of Cabin Crew so I'm unsure of what the interview will be like; will there be a maths and english test? Will they measure candidates? I have many friends who are Cabin Crew for Virgin and I have heard that the selection process is very intense, does anybody know if it is similar to Virgin?
Many thanks
I'd be so grateful if you could help me

Afternoon Ladies & Jellyspoons...
I'm starting training as of Nov 27th, to answer a couple of your queries...
Selection day: Pretty much run of the mill morning, a presentation on the company, what the uniform will be like etc etc... (all black, contrsting black & silver striped shirts/blouses) and tailored suits was what we originally told, no ties/scarves etc as we're are aiming for the relaxed business man approach...
Followed by a group session... prioritising things in order of importance etc etc...
Then sent for a break while they make their decision...
If your successful then you have a 2 to 1 interview, which they tailor around you and what job specs you are looking for... I thankfully have been employed as a service coordinator due to previous experience so I'm well chuffed...
Salary ranges from 10.5k main crew up to 19k line trainer, with approx 10-12k flight pay per annum, (trps are around 50 hrs a time, 2.30 p/h flight pay n about 7-8 returns a month)
Reward scheme based on service excellence, and i think its approx 5% contributory pension by the company.
Don't quote me verbatim on any of these... just a little heads up!
Hope you find it useful

Had my interview on Monday and they said it'd be the end of next week before I heard anything. Others told they'd hear before Christmas so don't know what's going to turn up. Fingers crossed anyway. Good luck.

Got email today stating that I was unsuccessful.
I kind of knew it after the interview as mucked up on a couple of questions and also thought that the guy was a bit up himself too. Seen him at the Air New Zealand interview earlier this year so he kind of put me off straight away!!!
Well least still have a job!!!
Lets us know how the rest of you got on who attending the recent interviews!!
Best of luck!!

Hi!
Silverjet contacted me for the next selection on december 19th
I'm already a FA (for 1 year) and I'm not a native englishspeaker.
Can anybody give me some info?
About everything! Interview, contract, duty, pay etc....
Please help me!
In this airline are there many people coming from outside England or not?

got to agree with oneroam thought the initial presentation was great liked Martyn Bridger thought hes was very sarcastic but honest with it. 1-2-1 interview awful thought that guy was right up his you know what with no real idea of the airline industry let Martyn Bridger know in an e-mail but know reply yet. Think that Silverjet is a great concept with good management shame about the interview but glad I was not the only one who thought 1-2-1 rubbish.

Unfortunately the recruitment team for the initial interviews are outsourced to a freelance agency, they guy that interviwed you I believe is ex air new zealand. I don't believe e-mailing Martyn was a great idea... he does appreciate feedback, but negative comments on an interview??? I wish you all the best, if you truly want the role, maybe see you on-line in the new year...

Recent round of interviews..
Is anyone still waiting to hear about recent interviews? I went for an inflight managers position on the 21st November and are still waiting to hear an outcome. My friend who also attended the day has been sent a 'no thanks' e-mail. From what I have been told no news is good news, anyone else in the same boat???
