Yeah except unlike some airlines there are GA jobs where you don't pay for uniform, meals, travel, dry cleaning, jepps, medicals, headsets, fuel, testing, physicals, travel for interviews or sim-rides.

Not sure I'm aware of any airline that covers that list; So perhaps this thread would be better suited in reporting points and away from GA?

Tiger Airways is one of Australia's fastest growing major domestic airlines.

A bit of a stretch ?
If you have ten aircraft and add three that gives a 30% growth, if you have 100 aircraft and add three that gives 3% growth.

Salary

Volare_737


i heard the wage went up to around $118K for A320 F/O at beginning of this financial year.. But as stated by some other stuff like uniform and parking might not be included in the Agreement.. So do some research.. Google is your friend

Last I heard for the 4 day 12hr roster (7am-7pm x2 then 7pm-7am x2) it was about $55,000 and that was including penalty rates. No doubt there would be some overtime, but you can't rely on overtime.

Tiger seem to want experienced people (I know a few with lots of experience, but don't seem to want to pay for it). If it was $55,000 plus shift it would be a better deal.

I know it's a LCC, but it's the old adage, if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys.

I did apply for the Operations position and got called for an nterview about a week after I submitted my application (it would've been when the ad ws placed about Aug, maybe). They said they would get back to me one way or the other, and I haven't heard anything as of yet.

I don't know about any of the other positions that were advertised.

For any tiger crew - is it a career gig (as secure as any flying job can be) or are you there to get the jet time to head o/s?

The recruitment agency being used by Tiger is probably making a bucket load of cash from all the pilots applying that meet the min experience but not actually having a chance of getting through.

Delta - so are you saying the Tiger application form goes to an agency and not direct to Tiger ?

Correct, your application is being processed by an agency.

I wonder if they know anything about aviation. Its not just simply looking at a CV and hours.
