Well it's there main hub and every one has to go via Paris base before you go to DUB.
You need to get familiar with AF network.
So every one has to do there time in CDG.
It will take quit a bit of time to go to DUB for F/O for CAPT it might go a bit faster.

Well, I passed those CityJet tests and was informed I was put in a pool, awaiting next phase. And then I got a letter about 10 days ago saying thank you for your interest in our company, and good luck in your search with finding a job. So even if you pass those tests it doesn't seem to matter, as you may not get a job anyhow!!

But to be honest...I'm sure something better will come up. Won't be applying again that's for sure!

It all depends on your current exp. in what grade you getting.
Your salary is connected to howe many hr. you have and if you have a frozen or full ATPL.
They will tell you that when you are over for the interview (they show you the whole pay scale).
For those going for the interview all the best.
It's straight forward but know your current type they will ask stuff about it.

Bananna,
So you mean CityJet is just like every other non-unionized company in the world? I've worked for a lot of them and they're all the same.
The real question is, how is the flying? That's why (most) of us do what we do anyway! IF I wanted to be rich, famous and repected I would have done something else and saved myself a bunch of money to boot!
There will always be someone who gets away with murder and someone else who gets the shaft, the only way to stay sane is to stay out of the office politics and do the job that (hopefully) you enjoy. If not, time for a career change!
Flying around Europe in a multi jet for the last three years sounds pretty good don't you think?

I presume you're the type who refuses to get involved in a union seeking to improves everyones lot, thus consigning yourself and everyone else to a continued race to the bottom. All it takes is one or two self-centred scabs to undermine the wishes of everyone else. You're management aren't you?

Touchy touchy....
Like I said, if you don't like....quit. Go do something else and let the rest of us get on with it.
My quality of life is great, maybe because I love what I do and don't spend all day whining about who has it better than me and why I'm not getting paid the big bucks. Pretty much everyone I know hates their job, thank goodness I don't. This outlook, by the way, does not subtract from the efforts of unions (of which I'm in one) to better our quality of life as pilots....just makes it easier to stay out of the bull.
Enjoy,
K
P.S. Management at my company doesn't really fly a whole lot so that ain't me

Cityjet Interview
Last week I heard that I passed the cityjet aptitude tests and I am invited for an interview in Paris.
Since this is my first interview ever I am looking forward to it but I have no idea what to expect!The email I got from them was somewhat vague.It only mentioned with whom I had the interview but nothing on the structure or what to expect.
Is there anybody would knows what they will be asking at the Cityjet interview ? technical questions or about previous jobs/flight experience? or is it a normal interview?
Thanks!

The interview is quit relaxed and nothing tricky. If you don't know the answer they will tell it to you and then move on from there. The guys conducting it is nice and are not trying to fail you. - It's the sim-instructor who is the bad guy, and he tries everything to fail you. (including shutting down the opporsite engine of the one he states that he is shutting down on you 
)
Just be aware that if you fail the interview or later the sim-ride, then no-one will bother to tell you. Basically they will just **** on you and ignore you forever - and not tell you what went wrong.
And yes, i failed the sim myself, and I pray to God and thank him for that every single night these days, as i got a job in a real airline in stead..... one that threats people as humans and not animals
