Must have been a change in the HR department.

Staff CV works best for flight crew, the new system seems more appropriate for regular workers and corporate appointments.

Go figure :)

You can still express interest on the new website.

My account got deleted altogether! HR trying to send a message? :uhoh:

blumoon 11th Dec 2011 04:26

So can anyone expand on what this recent change to the Virgin careers site means?

I have had an app in for over 1yr but now can't log on with the email address. Had to start again??:{

Are the old applications still in the system or does everyone have to start again?

Thanks

Try "virgin australia.com" and not "virginblue.com" in your address and see if that makes any difference.

Cheers

They are currently wiping the database to clear out all old applications and everyone will have to resubmit their application once the site opens again in the near future. That is not a rumour.

Recent Interview
 
Has anyone heard 'yay' or 'nay' after recent rounds of interviews and sim's?

aussie027 20th Dec 2011 05:20

Just on their website now, if you are not an existing applicant the only option I could see was to register a new account thru the "expression of interest' link is that correct??

That is the only way to then select the company area you are interested in and enter info on a form??

Heard of a 737 course running from start of Dec.. Can anyone shed any light if successful candidates were off the so called hold file or interviewed just prior to course??


Wondering where they are going with the new recruitment portal?? Anyone share any info.??

Anyone on the inside heard of course numbers running for next year?

I know thats asking alot but meh. I'm curious :hmm:

Superbad 31st Dec 2011 10:04

I think they are nearly done pulling people off the hold file.
If the expansion continues through 2012 then I would Guess at least 50-100 f/o's, maybe more. Keep in mind some of these spots will be filled from within (V AUS)
The expansion is in MEL and SYD. Those wishing for a 737 spot in bris could be waiting a number of years.

The rumour is there will be a lot of recruitment between now and September for the B737.

cloudsurfng 4th Jan 2012 16:07

Bump....

anyone heard from V???

Captain Biggles84 8th Jan 2012 02:48

Cheers Superbad


Hopefully your on the money.. Really hoping to get an opportunity at some point during this year. 50-100 sounds like what i have heard off mates. Just wondering what kind of experience gets you over the line for a shortlist and also how many QF applicants are being looked at.. Thinking it is gonna be ultra competitive but not to worry ;)

Yeah Virgin HR is all over this system change.

Had to laugh this arvo when i got an e-mail from recruitment telling me that my application on the old system they use is being removed, and if i wish to be considered for future positions I would need to re apply thru the new recruitment page on the web site. They did wish me all the best in my future aviation endeavors thou. Which is nice, especially since I've been flying for them for 2 years!:ugh:

HR, proving their worth ever day.:ok:

glekichi 10th Jan 2012 19:10

Got the same email.

Very disappointing considering when the change was first mentioned they said they would keep the application active.

AirNZ did the same. Told applicants they would automatically be put in the new system, then backflipped a few months later when it actually came on line.

I guess it makes sense in a way, though. Why would you pay someone to reenter all of this data when the pilots will do it themselves without hesitation.
