I think you're being a little harsh on the bean counters! It isn't their fault that Europe is in a total mess.

Wouldn't exactly say they were 'winning', just that they are in a more informed position to offer advice as to where to take the company. Seems like pretty unnecessary bitterness towards the accountants.

Moving on.....anyone heard yet?

Exactly from where did you get this information and when?

A friend of mine works for BA and told me the number "90" was released in an internal newspaper.

I asked a direct question at the final round about when and how we should hear. The answer was the "9th" and via email. Of course this could have changed, but seeing as no-one knows yet I will assume it has not!

Tomorrow will be a baaad day for spam!

To all of you waiting and watching your email inboxes, the very best of luck.

Tomorrow could be the begining of something quite awesome, on the other hand, a stark reminder that the airline industry goalposts really do change overnight. You can go to to bed one night, fat, dumb and happy, and wake up the next and it has all gone South (or North, East, West).

Whatever the news, chin up folks.

Most, if not all, of the decisions must have been made by now. Did anyone else think that the successful ones were going to be told by phone?

Best of luck to everyone!

As far as I know, DEP candidates are told by phone, but given the volume of replies I'd guess it will be email.

I'm pretty sure that one of the candidates asked that question while I was at Cranebank for my assessment/interview and the response was 'it will be by email'

There will be many very nervous people around today. I am one and I didn't apply!
Good luck!

I'm sure this waiting is part of the medical selection. Any heart problems will surface by now...

Seems as though things have gone a bit quiet, maybe people are celebrating or drowning their sorrows. I still haven't received any word, odds are the email will come in at 6pm.

So they don't get bombarded with phonecalls for requesting feedback or complaints etc I would imagine. Let people simmer over the weekend.

Sounds like a smart thing to do, from "their" point of view...

Does make sense I suppose. At least now I can forget about my email checking on the hour every hour routine.

It's not us saying that it will be. But that's just what I'd do in their shoes. Complete speculation. you're leaving it every hour? Don't think I could go that long.
