Graduate Oct 2004

Graduate Cabair Integrated Oct 2004. Would like to have a look around a freight company sometime before. As with most grads I will be looking to get any form of employment with the company with a right seat position in mind. East Mids. would be perfect so if anybody out there can spend an hour or so with me I would much appreciate it. I can let you know what I have been upto prior to the coarse and hand over a lovely CV to be 'kept on file' for when I'm let out of this mad house.

Cheers

M

I seem to recall DHL having similar requirements very shortly prior to asking OAT to send them low hours grads. That seems to have gone OK.

No harm in asking - publicly stated minimums aren't always what companies actually use for the 'right' candidate. However, in deciding the current minimums they do need to consider the spread of experience across the board, and most will avoid having too many newbies in relation to the rest of the crews. DHL may just be in that position at the moment.
