Ryanair plan pilot jobs
Relative has 2900 hours on 737. Just been made redundant following another LoCo restructuring and has renewed licence and medical last month. Holds U.K. and European citizenship. Should meet the criteria, but it’s a funny old world atm.

The EU citizenship is key. He’ll get another job just as soon as the skies reopen. You just got to feel for the British guys who are restricted to employment within the UK.
I’ve not seen any specific employment adverts relating to this recruitment drive. Do you just join the holding pool and hope that you are trawled?
Any approaches to experienced FOs in the talent pool?

Lauda has a specific set of requirements for the U.K. recruitment; namely U.K. passport/right to live and work in the U.K. and EASA license. I understand that it’s experienced FOs only/DEC.
Thanks, I did. Specifically 737 experienced FOs.

No chance for me. Have about 760 Actual hours ON Type about 10000TT ( 737 Rated ), According to their info, I will have to pay another 30K for doing TR AGAIN as I am below the 1000 On type and 1200 TT.
Thanks but no thanks. Spend enough so far on my career.

Was going to ask the same question.
I’m swimming in talent pool. 737 TR. 3500 hours. Kept EASA licence current - but still waiting for it to be returned after SIM early this summer. Dual nationality U.K./EU . Medical also current. Flexible over base. Still nothing.

Some cynical replies there I see. Well if you had any sense of the state of the industry in general you would see it's so plain. Ryan are recruiting cadets as they don't need LHS bods they have enough as well a a large number of FO's waiting for command. Nothing to do with money, they just don't have any demand for DEC, at the time.
I was speaking last week with a old friend who is at FR and he was saying they have over 300 cadets in the works but they needed more to continue their conveyor belt fir aircrew. Management are preparing for rapid expansion in Europe. More bases planned and they expect to start their injection of the MAX imminently. All crew are doing their max training so they are ploughing on with their proposed attack on their competitors.

Na not yet. I will shoot at it anyway. But I know their philosophy. You fit or you do not fit the requirement. If you do not fit, then you have to take the only option left, which will be 30K paying for a TR I already have with even 750 Hours On type.
Forked out already enough money so far. Not going to spend it on same TR again and start on lowest part of the stairs and be a cadet.
Paying that amount of money for same TR would be ridiculous. If it was for New TR it is also Ridiculous, but at least a new TR.

Email received advising me my Expression of Interest” in the talent pool is incomplete. This was because of a delay in my updated license being forwarded on (renewed beginning of May, received Thursday 26/8) so until yesterday, I have been unable to scan a copy onto my resume. Not sure if this is a sign that CVs are being actively viewed or just a computer algorithm identifying missing details.
