Lots of email and posted CVs and about a year later an application drops through the door. It's a funny old industry!

No wish to pour cold water onto the thread but beware 'permanent part year' positions and Second Officer payscales.

Understand a requirement for approx 24 pilots, could be either type. As for a base it'll probably be wherever a gap requires plugging.

Good luck

How did the interview with First Choice go? Did you get on with them? Any word? Are they hiring more pilots in the near future - on what fleet?


Cheers

Holding pool?

Do you mean they are interviewing at the moment only for placing people in a holding pool for now?

I had an interview with them, this time last week. The beginning of the session starts of with group activities (problem solving, introducing yourself) and then the exam. You are given a few presentations on what it is like working for the company and then they call a few people for a 2 on 1 interview, which is informal and only about 20 minutes.
I have been offered the job so I am very very excited!!! Has anyone else been offered a job at Bristol base? Would like to chat to some of the people I will be on the training course with!

Holding pool probably established as cover for any 'no-shows' from the 60 offered courses this winter - every likelihood that a reasonable number will be recruited next winter so any in the pool could be swimming ahead of the competition !

I had an interview with them last september. The interview was with the chief pilots of both fleets, Boing and Airbus.
A straight forward interview,they asked about my experience as a pilot, I had also a couple of easy tech questions and some questions about the company.
I would suggest you get all the info about the airline and company you can get.
Good luck and hope this will help.

First Choice

Hi everyone,

Sorry if this has been asked before but is there anybody who is able to tell me what working for First Choice is? I am looking for information like rosters (days-off and how fitted into your roster), roster stability, flying on both 757 and 767 or only one of the two, level of training, etc etc.

Best regards,

OG
