Seems to be the MO for this gang.

....don't you worry your pretty little heads. Let's just say that BA is VERY happy with the turnout, and the coming months will make that quite apparent to CX management. :ok:

Trafalgar...

Any idea of just how happy BA will be? I heard a 'rumour' that there were 200+ to be interviewed by BA from CX...

You are dreaming of you think BA will take more than a token few CX guys. Big airlines don't poach from each other excessively. The Swire boys and the BA boys all went to the same schools and belong to the same clubs.....they look out for each other's business. Call it a gentleman's agreement.

Forgive me - I know gentleman isn't really the word to use when we talk about our bosses..but that's another story.

Pppfffftttt!!!! The whole lot of you are big girls blouses. Dream on faggots!

BA is facing their own acute crew shortage, with rapid growth and increasing retirements. They will take as many people as they can from wherever they can. I hardly think the magic leprechaun will give two tosses as to whether or not the chinglish 'A50' wonder is worried about poaching! CX is about to see their most important resource, their highly trained aircrew, bled away by other more aggressive employers.

Absolute horsesh*t.
They will take half a dozen.
We would need 60 or 70 to bolt to even rate a mention on the 3rd floor.

Recruitment
 
I attended this quite some time ago, but a friend very recently attended a briefing at BA in London, which was part of his second day assessment. Head of recruitment confirmed to the group that almost 300 of the 350 ish positions for this year are now filled. Recruitment closed now until later this year (maybe September) which, when it reopens will be for 2017. Enough people currently in the system to fill the remaining vacancies I guess
