RAAF suspend all overseas recruiting
In case anyone was thinking about it, RAAF has just stopped all overseas recruiting. If you don't have a job offer, you ain't getting one anytime soon. Army and RAN still recruiting at the moment though.
Gut feeling is that it will start up again in 12-18 mths when they have used up all the people wanting to go back/withdraw PVRs etc. With effect Friday 13 March 2009, the Royal Australian Air Force has ceased recruiting for members from overseas for all specialisations and musterings. |
They stopped last year, shortly after the Carribou fleet got grounded. I think this is just the official recognition of that fact.
|
might have something to do with the fact that the government is suspending a lot of the immigration programs with the recession coming.
|
What about the rest of the SAAF? How are they going to get over here now? ;)

Athough I suspect that if one was a QFI with appropriate experience then there may be exceptions.

Perhaps the Aussies rumbled the fact that they recruited a whole bunch of our laziest FCs!

Fillin up!
I know due to outside job certainty we have seen an increase in local numbers and the RAAF is approaching our approved numbers, cant say for the Army and I still think the Navy is hurting for sailors not WAFUs though. The active program has been mostly successful with a few hiccups, I still think there will be an opening for the right calibre of person should we need them.
But you are right Insp D the FCs with no job/aircraft have spoilt it for the real aircrew:E:D:eek::uhoh: Charlie sends |
