zoom airlines is a new company in the UK. they already have a base in canada, but after putting a post in the canadian forum nobody replied, so i'm guessing there are no canadian zoom crew on here lol!! there is already a post in this forum about the recruitment for zoom uk.

hey, i think i may be the first Canadian Zoom crew writing in. Hope this helps, sorry to correct you vodkaholic "zoom airlines is a new company in the UK. they already have a base in canada" You are right about it being a new company , but it is actually just a sister company, you won't have a mixed crew of canadian flight crew and such, consider it more like the virgin group, its a new company under the Zoom brand group. Anywho, i managed to get some info, apparently there's a 757 and a 767 that you will be operating to new york in. Apparently zoom canada was supposed to be getting another 767, but i guess it is going to zoom uk. It is very exciting to have zook uk start up, hope it is as successful as us.
Working for zoom is great, although a uniform change would be nice over here in canada, kinda wish we had a suit like most airlines. * I hear talks of a revamp on the uniform with the sister company starting up, we will just have to wait and see. crossing our fingers* Yup great company to work for, well taken care of, annual company christmas party is over in the caribbean. Nothing comes before safety at Zoom, better to have a delay than to have something that will put people's lives in jeapordy. There's a real emphasis of teamwork and "one crew concept" over at Zoom, in the name of safety, just cause your a junior doesn't mean you can't call a wrong, in terms of safety, on someone more senior. that's just all in a nutshell.
anywho hope that helps some with info.

Has anyone had a telephone interview yet?
I received confirmation of my application on the 30th Dec but nothing else since. I did already state in my application that I like a more senior role as I have flown for a looooong time! I don't want to keep playing snakes and ladders
(up and down the career ladder) if you know what I mean! An interview would be nice though, It sounds quite exciting.

Hi to answer your question, im in my second year of service at Zoom canada.[/QUOTE]
i've sent you a pm so check your messages!
has anybody had a telephone interview yet? what sorts of questions do they ask and do they ask many questions on the uk operation as it's hard to find out exactly what routes/plans are as lots of rumours but website only mentions north america to start with

i havent had mine yet...but i read on cc.com that some people have. the questions they ask you seem to be quite in depth. some people are even having telephone interviews who weren't emailed about them...

I have just had my phone interview, really nice chap. Only lasted about 10 minuites. The first part is confirming what you wrote on your application form is correct, i.e. you're over 18, can live and work in the UK, etc. Then there was 2-3 questions about teamwork, communication, onboard sales. I will hear within 7 days by email if I am through to the interview stage.

well today is the 13th, and the email stated my interview would be between the 10th and 13th...and i haven't had it yet. what do you think is going on? People who havent even had emails have had interviews and people who did get the email haven't. very odd...and doesn't inspire much confidence really.
