Virgin Tech

Anyone got any info on Virgin Tech - Supposed to be Virgin Blues MRO in Australia, and looking for NG qualified engineers.

I hear that they are assembling a "best of the best" team from day one, and wondering if anyone knows where to apply.

Cheers

When you mention 'best of best', does the term 'world's best practice ring any (alarm) bells?

Virgin Tech got their CAR-30

I've been told that the pay rates and benefits are actually quite good.

VT have a CAR30 for the MJB hangar only at this time...... have been doing 'V' Checks for a couple of weeks now and the CAR30 for the line will coming soon. I believe they offer competitive pays, better than Jetcare.....Southern Australia ports will be coming on line soon if you saw The Australian ad last week. Fall over before it gets up and running????
