I’ve heard that the holding pool of pilots who were accepted in 19/20 have started or are due to start. Due to upcoming winter period (Christmas transport) recruitment will not be done till the new year.

Hi BCFPilot,
How was the ATPL part performed? Verbally or written? Which types of questions are they asking? Thanks

Hello,
As CV recently opened applications for NTR FOs, has anyone already been called/mailed or knows how long it might take for them to reach out?
And can we expect to be in a holding pool for some time or will they start training rather soon to fill the bottom stack? (Word on the street has it there's a bunch of skippers retiring in the near future)
Thanks!

Hi there,
I'm a 744 rated FO and consider joining Cargolux when they start hiring again.
As far as I understand, the upgrade to the left seat will take approx. 10-12 years. How is the salary progression in that time? There is not too much difference between the normal FO and Senior FO pay on their website (around 5,800 vs 6,300). Is there a yearly raise (except inflation) or a pay scale according to years at the company? Or are the 6,300 Euros the maximum base pay a FO can reach before the upgrade?

The guestimate to upgrade is a likely scenario.
FO salary progression includes a yearly time unit and automatic increases for inflation through the luxembourgish indexation rules.
On top there are tax free supplements for night, sunday and holiday duties as well as a daily allowance (per diem).
Hope that helps to clarify

Hey all,
Has anyone attended an assessment day lately, or even been invited for one? I applied back in November along with a few other buddies and its been radio silence since so I'm just wondering if anyone else has even heard a thing.
Many thanks!

They’ve started using this as the “new standard” when Covid hit and for obviously reasons. I guess it suits them rather well, so no guarantees.

Hi,
Applied to Cargolux recently this July 2022. No news so far so I don't expect an invitation anytime soon. On their online portal just says 'application received'.
I wonder that they might be flooded of applications taking into account many people in Cathay Pacific are resigning, and there are many rated 747 drivers there. Just a guess.
All in all if anyone has info about the selection process would be greatly appreciated, I couldn't find much and there is nothing in latestpilotjobs.com so any info is welcome.
Safe flights.
