Whoever is moderating this topic should have stepped in a few pages back and shut down the personal and biggotted animosity that rose to the surface. What a peculiar bunch of pissants those few turned out to be. Stick to the topic kids.

You know how it works, one moderator and ten thousand guys who want to have a pissing contest. The odds just don't stack up. Most of the readers want to see who's hiring not who is bitching about their crappy jobs.

sky service

problem being,

when they are short they get UK dual licenced guys over to help out in the summer, thats why the accents on the radio....Canada 3000 started this. Not saying its right or wrong but if you read the UK forums they have the same gripes hearing canadian accents on the radio when sky service sends guys over this way.....

Same old moan....
So what if they use British pilots and vice versa? Its logical to cover the busy seasons in each country, Think of the nightmare both ends would have if they had to get temporary pilots for the busy times, all the interviews, tests etc when they can simply use the pilots already available from someone else?

I can see why people moan from a personal point of view but if you look at if through a business eye you can see why it happens.

I looked on their website and there's no online application, but you can send a CV to [email protected].

Are they still looking for guys? Are they still interviewing? Is there more expansion or do they expect to lose more people to AC?

I am pretty sure the first interviews are completed. I had not heard that they were doing the second interviews yet but this is good to here if its true.

Sorry for the mistake. He was called for the second interview, not sure if he has done it yet. He said he would let me know how it went.

Does anyone know what sort of requirements (time, jet, etc.) the people who are doing interviews have?

I believe Skyservice wants at least 6000 hrs total time and as far as the guys doing interviews, the guys I know have at least 2500 jet time.

Would you guys say that most of the interviewing is done? I was told 1 1/2 weeks ago that I am "short listed" for an interview. Can I expect a call anytime soon?

As I understand it some of the Senior office bods went on vacation..In view of the recent start on the AirCanada 'hiring',and the poss' of losing people,I believe that they(SKY) are to start courses soon..Quite a few candidates are awaiting their second interview....Some have received their'thanks but no thanks letters'.....Present talk(changes daily upon demand)is still for 40 people over the Fall and WINTER..
Cheers..
