A friend of mine just got a 737 job with type rating but low hours on type, but he had a recommendation.
I am low hours, no type rating and have been trying for several months to get an interview. I have also had a recommendation but still no joy for me.

Sadly, the only way you can get a jet job, at the moment it seems, with low hours seems to be the SSTR, my only interview so far is this Saturday for a hols charter SSTR scheme. Nature of the beast! You can guaratee next year things will be different again!! By the way I am going against my religion and opting for the SSTR! I hate myself!!

SinBin, you won't hate yourself if you get the job. Unfortunately paying for the rating is the nature of the beast these days. Unless everyone stops doing it, the airlines will continue to see it as something they can demand

Interview
Hi all, just looking for some current info on whats involved for the interview (and sim if applicable) for a FO 737? Is there numerical /verbal tests? I have 73 classic rating.

We have a selection process which includes numerical reasoning, verbal reasoning and an interview. After that, a sim assessment is done via CTC on behalf of Jet2.
No idea if there is recruitment at the moment, since it's not clear how many new airframes we are getting for next year, nor how many f/o are moving on, but attending the BALPA employment conference will give you an opportunity to meet the aircrew manager. Check with BALPA to ensure he is attending though.
My own view is that recruitment is a bit slow for most of the LCC at the moment.
