PPRuNe Wannabe Seminars 2006; 23rd September
PPRuNe will be holding a series of seminars for wannabes on the 23rd September at the Gatwick Thistle Hotel. This is the same location and date as the PPRuNe GatBash 2006 so you can enjoy both functions if you so wish.
The Wannabe Seminars will be held from 10am through to mid afternoon with a break for lunch and coffee breaks. They will be open to wannabes who are either thinking of starting out on the long hard road to gaining their fATPL and to those who have gained their licence but are still struggling to find their first job.
Whilst the full itinery hasn't been finalised yet, they will include talks on how to prepare your CV and approach potential employers, what to expect at interview, what's really involved once you get your first job, flying for a loco and flying for a legacy carrier. These are not sales pitches from companies who want your business. The talks will give you the 'warts and all' side of things and will be by people who have achieved their positions after being in a similar situation to the wannabes and include current pilots and airline management. More details will follow.
There will be no charge for the seminars but places will be limited. In order to reserve a place at the seminar, a £25 refundable deposit will have to be paid. If you have reserved a place and you show up, your deposit will be refunded. Lunch is not included but coffee during the breaks is. Also, if you want to stay for the PPRuNe GatBash 2006 function in the evening (not to be missed) please see this thread for details on how to book.
The PPRuNe Wannabe Seminars used to be a regular event but have not been held for the last few years. They were very popular and you will need to book early to reserve a place as we are limited to a maximum of 60 guests. They are also a great opportunity to meet some of the people who moderate and run PPRuNe. If you want to know how to network, then be there or be square... as they say.
Watch this space for details on how to reserve your place at the PPRuNe Wannabe Seminars 2006. The places are on a strictly first come, first served basis.
