Thomas Cook Recruitment
 

It's up on their website guys & girls. Problem is when I have completed filling the thing out and click on the submit link I get :

"Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0006'

Overflow: 'CInt'

/SPRINTPLUS/airlines/html/applythanks.asp, line 120"

Anyone else getting this?

Rumour I have heard is that the online application may only be open for a few days if that.

Nothing on the website when I tried a few minutes ago

Nope, nothing here too......


What kind of experience do you chaps have?

Don't panic - I think the line of code is meant to generate a "Thanks for applying" message.

We have received all the applications we require for the current round of recruitment.

Thank you for your interest in Thomas Cook Airlines

Where did you come across this?

On www.thomascookpilots.com there is no mention of recruitment or any online application to be found!

Sickbocks - agree with that having looked at it and tried to make a little sense.

The site you need to be looking at is www.thomascookjobs.co.uk

Navigate the menu's and you will get to the application form.

Just emailed TC HR department asking what the error message was about.

thanks a lot for that link. I didnt realise it had changed!

What have people put in the experience section if you haven't had any previous flying jobs? Have you listed none flying jobs?

Is it worth putting down a company employee you know even if they are not a pilot (e.g. stewardess, travel agent)?

Thanks.

Speedy,

Do you think it's worth putting down someone who is atravel agent when you want a pilot job?

NO.......

I received the same error message. Just hope the application went through ok.

I get this message after hitting apply button!
