Are DHL hiring?
As it says on the tin really!Just wanting to know what it is like to work here T&C's etc are the boys a happy bunch?Currently 757/767 qualified with UK charter Co 9000hrs total time.
Happy bunch haha sure thats why approx 20% of the pilots have left and another 15+ pilots have an interview with Silverjet this month.
less days off ,more flying ,more bonuses for managers and no money for a payrise!
i think they only hire for a Leipzig base from now on!!

33%? That’s no problem! According to their MD getting rid of the expensive pilots is a very healthy thing. Low-timers will work for half the going rate, plus they’ll all be working from Leipzig in 2008 … or will they?

Those looking for jobs at DHLAir but were worried about being based in Leipzig need worry no more (well at least for the near future). Its all changed and the company has backtracked. Those that were taken on this year with LEJ contracts will be told that they can be permanently EMA based if they want to be. Those that will be taken on in early 2008 will be EMA based.
So chase up that CV. Cos there will be more resignations from DHLAir very soon. (ie. this month)

Hey Coop/Bear
They must be,I believe they have plans to add yet more A300 to the European fleet.Every time I pass through I see new faces so maybe throw the application at them again.Several of the old CO have been seconded lately and it sure would be good to see you and the beer bear again.

FO Jobs
The current pay for F/O low hours is £28,000, but you get a few extras on top of that, i.e. day off payments at £500 a day. (If you want them) and duty pay which adds about another £7-8000.
They are now recruiting for the EMA base, and as an F/O I currently get around 12-14 days off a month. Captains do seem to be working harder mainly due to the Silverjet rush.
And yes I think they are hiring and will be into the New Year with another batch departing for the more glamorous Silverjet.
