Rude Air Arabia Pilot
 

Hi there guys,

I was'nt aware that this thread exists...everything to know about Air Arabia. I just want to ask if anyone in here knows this certain AA pilot who refered VFR traffic as "idiots"? Please check the "Rude Air Arabia Pilot" thread for details regarding this matter. I just want you guys to know that this certain AA pilot is destroying the name of Air Arabia itself, which I believe is a respected Airline company.

Thank you guys for your time and good day

Air Arabia A320 opportunities
 

I hear Air Arabia are looking for direct entry FO's and Captains for their 320's does anyone have anymore information please? I understand they have just announced a public offering and have plans for 35+ new aircraft over the next 5years, so should be some good chances for command.

Whether it is a big publicity campaign or not, but Air Arabia is now in everyone's mind. Is it really good? Well, they are going to places.
What will the arrival of Jazeera in DXB mean to AA? Will it be a creative way to avoid EK investing in a Low Cost and challenge AA from a short distance? Food for thought...

Open Door
 

Cameltoe,

Yes Management has open door, but don't go in, because my freind went in to the chief pilot with a complaint and the answer was "if you don't like it, leave". And a Captain that i flew with said the same thing had happened to him.

And the upgrades are not happening like they said they would, hiring lots of captains instead, direct.

Kala 320, I sent you a PM ....

air arabia dont go 320f/o
 

I am interezted to aa screening this month. But everyon saying dont go . they have bad conditions and bad atitude to employee.my colege was their last month for interview and sayd it wasnt good.interview for him lasted 20 min but for his frend it was at least 1 hour. he said if your face fits they already decide if you are in the job.if they dont like you they finish the interview quickly.the sim assesment is also very hard. can any1 please give me information if they have been to the assesment and if it is worth spending 500 euros to go their. at least 5 people told me dont go, you are always exceeding your hours and after 1 year uae becomes boring.

How can you judge a company that you have never seen?:=
You only met few people and you are judging all, not knowing which engine you are flying after half an hour of sim explains how bad you did and I am sure your bad performance was the main reason for not recruiting you, if you have failed the interview they would not even bother taking you to sim.
I fly for AA and have not seen any rude people as you said and definitely not our TM.
We have a very good environment and more non Moslem pilots then Moslems, so if they did not select you it would not be fair to misjudge the entire company, anyhow good they did not select you, we would like to keep the nice atmosphere. :ok:
Good luck with you new company;)

The Truth About Arabia Interview Feb
 

:D After reading some of the posts regarding Air arabia, i was somewhat surprised of all the recent negative postings about them, I was at the selection in FEBRUARY and found no form of prejudice and found the whole recruitment team somewhat Impeccable.At the onset of the screening, we met initially the Chief Pilot who seemed very nice to us and was just giving us info regarding the company, he then introduced us to the head of HR and the TM. We were 5 in total and were initially given a psyco paper which was relatively straight forward, they are just wanting to check that you are not a complete lunatic.After this we were given a technical paper with around 45 questions mostly regarding airbus systems in particular autoflight, with some basic atpl quest.After this we were all given a group exercise which was to build a tower from straws, which what they want to see is TEAMWORK, dont worry if the tower falls down and dont act as if you are participating in a HOLLYWOOD movie as a few candidates were trying, the people at AA are certainly not stupid, just act yourself and dont try and act a leader.Emphasis is TEAMWORK and also try not to be an observer and officous.one of candidates was somewhat pertinacious which the rest of us didnt quite like, it was as if he had rehearsed this in the mirror for the last 2 years.In our group we most definitely didnt have reliance upon one another which is not the best way for a group discussion.it was somewhat dog eat dog.After this its time for the 3 to 1 interview.Chief Pilot, Training Manager and the Head of HR and me, i was first man in so didnt have the benefits of the others because they kept on asking what did they ask quick quick tell all. Actually the Interview went very well, its just about you and why you want to join, why not emirates and the the 3 most popular questions who would you vote out in group exercise (everyonebecause i want the job and im the best).If you got a job on a340 you would leave (no i cant be bothered studying anymore) the TM loves this quest he asked me it about 3 times, i suppose he wasnt impressed with my answer.the 3rd quest Why AA.the Interview lasts around 35 min and it was the same for everyone, one candidate kept reiterating he was out in 15 mins, but actually i think he could count and was saying the HR manageress walked out after 10 min because she didnt like his appearance and had already decided he was out(maybe she just needed to go to the toilet) or maybe he had bad breath, in any event we were all asked the same questions and all had the same time in the Interview. I thought the Management were really excellent, they put me at ease during the Interview, no tech quest its all about you,you,andyou.The TM is a little tricky to deal with but again very nice person.Okay day 1 over and the next day was the sim at emirates training centre, we meet the TRE a very young and calm TRE very nice and pleasant infact somewhat of a cool guy. WE were only 3/FO's for the sim so the Tre picked the 1st 2 and left me behind in the emirates lounge, after around 1 hour it was my turn he told me to jump in the right seat and one of the F/os would sit in right seat. I was extremely nervous and really tired i had just finished work so wasnt up for the sim, anyway "your in Dubai runway 12L cleared take off wind 200/25knots" which i missed, anyway strong xwind takeoff to land for visual,followed with S/E ILS go around strong crosswind and its over, anyway my sim also didnt go to well,the f/o i was flying with was somewhat a bit Crazy and was clearing the ecams before i was saying "clear". Anyway the TRE was very nice to all of us and was most definitely not out to fail us, infact i think the complete opposite he wanted us in.He even helpled me out several times.Anyway the sim was over he said goodbye we said goodbye and he even arranged for the transport back to our hotel which is all paid for via AA.
In relation to the PROFANE guy who is posting on this site saying YOU have to be BRad pitt or A moslem spelt MUSLIM incidentally grow the Fxxx up.Ofcourse they have a duty to employ LOcal UAE nationals, its a government request and not an individual company request.And also i was realy annoyed at one candidate whom was tunisian he did told us he had the questions for the tech exam which he obtained, but at the end of the day im sure AA are not stupid they can easily change the database of q's.
Overall i have no remorse of going to the Interview it was an experience and the management were Impeccable and it would be a great company to work for,But once again they are only employing actors/actresses/models/football players.(LOL)
Anyone needing any info regarding AA please dont hesitate to conatct me.Trust me its going to be the next EASYJET of the middle east:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
