Who is attending the Monday interview next week?

ShesGreatintheGalley 14th Sep 2006 15:00

sorry but i just have to comment out of hillarity... why is it that since the company have released the details for the International conditions, and the AWAs etc... there have meen no more comments in the Jetstar threads? Have people actually lost interest?

Probably because the thousands of wannabes out there think it's an acceptable deal.

Fingers Crossed 14th Sep 2006 22:33

As terrible as this may sound I would never be that desperate to work for them. The bad pay, the cleaning the aircraft after, the blah uniform. I don't find it appealing at all, maybe there is career progression but it's a long long long way away and too work for peanuts, for pax that pay peanuts. Not for me. In saying that though goodluck to anyone who is pursuing a flying career with them. :ouch:

Jetstar International
 
I though Jetstar's airfares would be cheaper.....

For examlple, Flight Centre has a deal for $1099 to Phuket including 6 nights accommation and transfers.

Otherwise you can book just the airfare with Jetstar for $814.

So for an extra $285 you get 6 nights accommodation, airport transfers, full service airline (meal, blanket and pillow, free entertainment and can earn ff points).

I fail to see the huge savings you get flying Jetstar when you consider you still need to purchase accommodation on top of your airfare.

Has anybody heard?
 
Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has actually had offers of Jobs with JetStar International for Sydney Base? All seems to have gone very quiet and I for one am still in the dark. Referees were contacted some weeks ago and still no news.

:hmm:

ShesGreatintheGalley 16th Sep 2006 07:08

there are sydney morning teas happening start next week for JQ domestic.. i know that much.
some JQ crew are accepting the JQI agreement... some not.
thats about all i know.
Oct is going to be a disaster in crew planning.. with CM upgrades, JQI training for current JQ crew etc.. nothing decided and/or accepted yet and the Oct rosters should have been done by now! will be interesting! dont expect to get many requests!

hey pinklemonae

Usually there are about 30-50 candidates, depending on how many recruiters they have, as there is about 1-2 recruiters for each table of ten.

Dont let that worry you though, cause all you have to do is be yourself, and you will be fine!!

How did you go today? I hope it was better than the Eastern one, or was it similar. All the best of luck though.

I know what you mean. I just saw an ad for Honolulu ONE way FROM $579. You always see Hawaii + accomodation deals for $1000 and under

Went well :)

Probably the best recruitment day I've been too. Hopefully tomorrow I will get a call back!

J* International
 
To those crew already flying for J* and those who are or have applied for J* Long Haul,has the company told you about conditions for Long Haul flights.

Things like crew rest seats,overtime,hotel accomodation,slip times,allowances hour limitations..that sort of thing.

How can you know the conditions and listen to what people have said on these forums and still want to work there?
People like you accepting these conditions are partially to blame for the appalling conditions for most Australian cabin crew.
Sheesh have some dignity and at least PRETEND you don't want to work for them.

pinklemonae 19th Sep 2006 05:53

Has anyone been to a Jetstar morning tea and can tell me what its like?

Thanks.
