feeling stupid...

Flight Experience Option B-2:

3,000 hours total time
2,000 hours are on high performance turboprop or jet (ATR 72 Canadair CRJ100, CRJ200, CRJ700 Challenger 600, 601, 604 Bombardier Dash 8 Q400 Embraer 135, 145,170, 190 Falcon 50, 50EX, 900, 900EX, 2000, 2000EX, 7X Gulfstream II, III, IV, V Saab 2000)

Flight Experience Option C:

On a multi-pilot turbo-jet aeroplane certificated to the standards of CS-25 or equivalent airworthiness code or on a multi-pilot turbo-prop aeroplane having a maximum certificated take-off mass of not less than 10 tonnes or a certificated passenger seating configuration of more than 19 passengers, at least 500 hours flight time or 100 route sectors.

I don't get this...

So someone with 500hours and or 100sectors on the q400 can apply ?
Then why do they have the B-2 Option?

Any Info on the tests

I just got the message that I am up for the first round of tests at the AMC in Amsterdam.
Does anyone know what kind of test they use and if there is any training software available? Or even something about these psychological assessments.
Any info is appreciated.

Guys, I received the email from IP this morning that I have been placed "on the waiting list to possible be invited for assessment... This could take several months."

Anyone have any experience how long this usually takes? By PM if you prefer

It took 3 weeks until I got an email from the aviation medical center regarding an appointment for the assessment.

Anyone invited to the assessment care to share their experience?

Just trying to get an idea of the minimum requirements that they actually invite, because the three groups as set by IP are pretty widespread...

The division of requirements is most likely to be explained by the lesser requirements of our southerly dependance.
Beware of it, it's your life and it's going to bite you at one point, promise!

Think twice

As 16td2go alreay said.... watch out. Most, if not all jobs offered are down in our slavery sister Cargolux Italia. You will most likely regret to join this outfit since T&Cs are most likely worse the Ryanair....Even joining mainline in LUX could become an unwanted adventure. If you have a good and secure job, think twice... Flying a 747 is not worth an adventure you might regret one day...

Why would joining mainline possibly be an unwanted adventure? Are things heading that bad?

Also, I thought it was a separate process to join ICV rather than you apply thinking you're going for mainline to find out the jobs actually for the terrible conditions at Italia?
