easyjet
 
Hi can someone please tell me if easyjet do any nightstops?? If so what is the longest trip for?

johnezy 7th Feb 2007 20:02

hi i am based at Luton at the moment we do not do night stops we used to but no longer. However sometimes you may be needed to operate out of another base, so you'll be posistioned out to that base and operate for as long as they need you normally just one night. we have two types of aircraft, and unless your base has both you wont be dual rated (trained on both) so that does limit where you can work, specially at luton as we just have 737 and most bases now have A319 or a mix. S o to answer your question:

No easyjet dont do night stops

johnezy 7th Feb 2007 21:14

oh also i forgot to mention, anyone traveling to Luton for an assesment day should be aware of very heavy traffic on the M1 at J10 due to the road widening and on the road from there to the airport, they are also doing major road works there too. Expect VERY heavy delays and please do allow extra time ( i personaly would allow an extra hour or so!!). Don't want anyone to be late, as it's not really a day you want to be late on!!:)

Hi Condor

I think there is possibly plans to recruit in Oz all i can say is keep your eye on the web site, It is always updated. Good Luck

johnezy 8th Feb 2007 15:53

Hi at the moment no formal plans have been made to recruit in Oz, however the team does think that we may do this year, just don't know when. The crew that we do have from Oz are all fab so you guys do make great crew for us and have been worth while. hope this sort of helps. My advice is keep your ears open in the next few months:ok:

CS-TNP 9th Feb 2007 11:25

Thanks for the answers. Anyway didn't got the job, just fell on the second phase. About jeans, there were a guy that went in jeans and got to the third phase.

I was really myself and in the group phase was very relaxed, never shouted and even forgot that was in a recruitment assessment.

First phase was really easy. First they collected some info about passports and then put us all in a room to fill a form. Then to another room for the tests. First was the presentation and say something about EZY.

The the maths test. Increadibly easy. Then the english test, not so easy but perfectly accessible.

Break and 3 guys out. Second phase, group tests. First, groups of 5. We had laminated cards with a story of a street with 5 houses, with each resident with a certain job, house colour, pet. We had to guess wich one had a fish as a pet. Second exercise, the old sinking ship and change of groups.

I wish that all the people that went to the third phase got the job, they were amazing and met some really nice people. Innthe group stage it seemed that we've met for some many years, it was really fun.


Regards

Dolley,
Yeah if you like cheap cut the corners of service and being nickeled and dimed for everything, easyJet's great, not for me at all, and I am not prepared to dance around the training school table each morning like kiddies just to satisfy the teambuilding aspects....enjoy easyJet.

TheAnswer 9th Feb 2007 12:12

O O O O... NINE days passed since my interview... hu hu hu got no phone call :-(
What do you suggest? Should I call them on monday? Or should I wait untill I'll be called??
What a luck she had told me "You'll know all in a couple of days..." :( :(
They'd be unpro if they'll tell me I'm unsuccessful after so many days waited... isn'it?
Cheers friends

CS-TNP 9th Feb 2007 13:36

Just call them to know something. Even me, that I was rejected, they sent me an email giving me some "music". So if you were successful till the end of the day why don't call them?


Regards

TheAnswer 9th Feb 2007 14:12

"music" what do you mean? How many days after your ass day were you emailed with an unsuccessfull outcome?
Cheers

Commander1 9th Feb 2007 14:18

Do Easyjet ever hold interviews in Glasgow? I had applied for a base in Edinburgh not long ago and not heard back (3 weeks ago) They're not recruiting for Glasgow though. got a position with Ryanair

CS-TNP 9th Feb 2007 15:56

I was on the assessement last Wednesday. Today they sent me an email explaining why I was not accepted and bla bla bla. Nothing new, because I fell on the second stage.


Cheers

TheAnswer 9th Feb 2007 16:53

So only 2 days to get the mail back... I'm sorry you didn't get through hope you can re sit and pass it in future.
Cheers

johnezy 9th Feb 2007 16:58

hi commander at the moment as far as i know we don't have any recruitment day in Scotland, we do sometimes have open days (we just did one in Bristol) I don't know about glasgow having spaces at the moment, they are a very small base, however we are recruiting for edingbrough at the moment and your assesment day would be at Luton if you applied. If you decide not to then good luck at ryanair.

esy 10th Feb 2007 09:29

JOHNEZY

do you know how is the situation in Germany as far as cc recruitment is concerned (especially SXF)? I mean, do you have shortcomings of the crew there as they are always recruiting? And how often is the assesment day organised in Berlin?

Commander1 10th Feb 2007 09:53

Hi Johnezy,

Yeah I applied for Edinburgh about 2 weeks ago but not heard anything yet. Does everyone applying for Scotland bases have to go to Luton?

For everyone else, i dont think Ryanair are as bad as everyone makes out there were at least 200 people at the recent open day in Glasgow and only around 30 got accepted including myself. Its around £800 for training but so what, you gotta spend money to earn money these days and it was my goal to be cabin crew and here I am thanks to them.

My base will either be Prestwick, Barcelona, Girona or Madrid.

TheAnswer 10th Feb 2007 11:45

To esy: I have applied for Dortmund, it looks like all people who applies for a German base are requested to attend the assessment session in Berlin.
I was invited there and there was mainly German people as it looks like they reserve Berlin for foreign applicants (not English) or at least for those who didn't ask to be based in UK. My assessment session was in fact an "open day" for everybody who wanted to interact with easyJet in any way
Cheers

esy 10th Feb 2007 11:59

"for everybody who wanted to interact with ezy in any way"
do you mean that there came people who hadn't even applied as well?

TheAnswer 10th Feb 2007 12:15

Exactly.
Whilst giving my passport at the easyJet desk one of the crew asked me "Did you apply online?" I answered "Sure, why?"... later I understood why she had asked me ;)

esy 10th Feb 2007 12:22

And those who hadn't applied on-line were allowed to write a test?

orangegirl 10th Feb 2007 12:29

esy:
I think they are always recruiting for crew in sxf and dtm.
I'm based in dtm and we have lots of new crew lately and it seems more are comming.


TheAnswer:
normally if your not accepted they would let you know within a few days with an email. I'm sure they will call you on monday or tuesday! :)

TheAnswer 10th Feb 2007 12:30

Yes, they were given a new one to fill. I've found this queer as I know about people who was not given the oppurtunity to attend an ass session as their application was found unsuccessful...

esy 10th Feb 2007 12:38

Yes they always recruit there, but it seems to me that they were a bit desperate if they allowed to try to everybody.
Anyway, I just hope that they have assesment days in Berlin from time to time, it would be much closer than Luton.
Thanks for info:}

TheAnswer 10th Feb 2007 12:48

They aren't desperate at all esy! We were 145 but only me and other 29 got through the whole day! They don't need to hire at all trust me!
You're welcome esy ;)

Orangegirl I pm'd you ;)

shinners 10th Feb 2007 20:00

I'll go to an easyjet open day on 20th!!!!!!!

how does it work??
thx!!!!

justlikeme 10th Feb 2007 20:00

the answer:

after two weeks i got THE CALL!!!!!!!!!!!!! :E:):ok:
so im sure that they will call u soon ;)

johnezy 10th Feb 2007 21:15

places in SXF
 
hi there are several place available in Berlin this is due to expansion we hold open days there i haven't done one of those but the team will travel to berlin and candidate would do all the tests and group exercises one day one and then if they were successful be invited for an interview on day two. Alternatively if there aren't any open days coming up you would be invited to attend a recruitment day at Luton and do it all in one day.
hope this helps john :)

TheAnswer 10th Feb 2007 23:27

To justlikeme
 
2 weeks? Really? That makes me hope as I mustn't be worried.. if they didn't reject me till now it means I should get a job offer :D

To Shinners: An open day in Berlin (Palace Hotel) works that you'll have to get through the whole day concerning maths,English and ability test and group exercises. That's DAY 1.
In case of a successful outcome you'll be invited to attend an interview the following day that's DAY 2. Then.. just wait.. hoping eJ will call you before bankrupt auhauauha :D:D:D
Regards

justlikeme 11th Feb 2007 07:12

oh yes, two weeks!!!! and im so happy that i dont have to wait anymore! that was such a horrible time haha

i keep my fingers crossed for ya :)

TheAnswer 11th Feb 2007 12:30

ya cross 'em strongly ;)

Virginia 11th Feb 2007 21:38

Just to point out at LGW we get nightstops in Madrid and Milan.

stevard 11th Feb 2007 22:40

Will you get just that new uniforms of EZY when you pass? I like the old ones, so suitable for low cost and surely comfortable to wear :)

Airbourne-Adamski 12th Feb 2007 08:57

Hi Stevard

With regard to new uniforms, they are planning wearing trials over the next month or so to decide who gets the contract. Then from there its all the logistics ect of finalising everything. So I would not expect to see the uniform til summer, early summer if we are lucky. So it looks like you will start with the current uniform, (whats left of it :\ )

TheAnswer 12th Feb 2007 08:59

Are you joking? I'd rather prefer a punch in the eye than wearing the old eJ uniform auhuahuah :D:D

Airbourne-Adamski 12th Feb 2007 09:13

The Answer

Look at the bright side at least we are almost there with it. :ugh: I think the good M.D is pushing for it to be online asap. I am still unnsure about the white shirt, I used to wear one at flybe and they get dirty so easily and quickly. But must say it does look good.

TheAnswer 12th Feb 2007 13:01

Yes you're right:}

BTW today is the 12th day after my interview... I wait and wait and wait for a phone call to know whether I got it or not... I didn't think could be so horrible to wait..but in fact it is :sad: :(

esy 12th Feb 2007 13:59

uniform
 
I don't agree that the old uniform was so bad, it has some advantages.
What is more, white shirt isn't very good idea. It's a pity that there is almost no orange in the uniform. I think that there should be an orange shirt instead of the white one.

TheAnswer 12th Feb 2007 15:34

No doubts that the old one is a bit more comfortable but let me say that an orange shirt is quite a punch in a eye too :D :D
However the new uniform is supposed to have an orange tie therefore orange colour will be still present. About the actual one what I definitely do not like are the black trousers whilst the polo/T-shirt is ok.

esy 12th Feb 2007 15:51

Orange for a man may indeed be not too good.
