HELOG GLOBAL

[212_Nightdipper]

Hello Folks,

anyone could give me some infos about this company (roaster, paycheck,accomodations..etc) ?...from the website operatively speaking they seem to be very professional and dynamic ....given the places where they operate plus the fact that I'm looking for some adventure after leaving the military, this company seems to me very interesting!

Thanks very much...any help greatly appreciated...

Helog went broke back in 2008. Seems like they are back in business now.

[Hedski]

It depends which part of Helog is now running.
My experience not too nice.
PM if you require further info.

I have sended my cv to them, hope to get called, even with these "bad" info of them!!

[212_Nightdipper]

I've sent my CV at night and the very next morning i got a reply asking for relevant documents copies (license and all)...but now its been a week and no more comms...i will give it some time....for me would be the first job outside the mil.....seems not be too easy to get into the civ business...

[400hover]

I've sent mine a few ago, but no response... maybe wrong mail.. or not. But i have the requisites they asked.

Welcome to frustating civil world of helicopter aviation!! Much more cv's you will send! Or not

[212_Nightdipper]

Hopefully not....so far i've done thru CHC and Bristow ads...same preliminary answer and after that......SILENCE! .....well well well...looks like someone must learn the noble art of PATIENCE!!....

@fluffy:

I have been one of the "poor bastards" they have sent to Sudan....(years ago)....


And: Yeah, you´r right....!

[Camp Freddie]

We had a guy with us that had been with them in Sudan, complete muppets he said

[alouette]

"Unmatched professionalism in aviation..." well, seeing is believing. Also the mission statements... Not that I want to cast a shadow, but I heard hair raising stories about the op in Sudan.

[212_Nightdipper]

....Wow.....still not a single positive comment for them.....hopefully they got better after getting back in business.....

[AlfonsoBonzo]

Have they changed their name and are now called Global Helicopter Service?

[hueyracer]

Yes..that´s them….

Operation still unchanged…(at least that´s what the guys leaving them say)...

[212_Nightdipper]

....and thats why they seem to be recruiting at the moment....

[AlfonsoBonzo]

Thanks for confirming.

Still no one who can say positive things about them?

[Same again]

With someone called 'Loser' as the FOM what can possibly go wrong?

[whoknows idont]

Still no one who can say positive things about them?

I would be more than suprised!

I heard a lot of very daunting first hand stories about them over the few years I've had in the industry so far... If you don't see any way around them, try and have them pay you up front on a monthly basis...
