Pitch

the reason why pilots leave bmi ( capt or fo's ) is that the other airline offers the pilot most if not everything bmi can't ( or won't ).

bmi have lost capts to BA , imagine giving up a left hand seat job to go back into the right hand seat for at least 10 years, a very hard decision to make, yet it has happened. - a clue to anyone wishing a career at bmi.

bmi have lost fo's very close to their commands to other airlines - another clue.

Why ? well - read what acbus1 posted earlier on this thread. It is all true. Dont believe all that crap about being grateful for being in a flying job ! when you are away for airports and up in the air, the job is the best.

What it is all about is - how you get treated by your employer -
that is completely different.

I am led to believe that we (ww) can expect a new base in Scotland. Anyone else heard this.

BMI Jobs

Hello folks

I am going for an interview with BMI Baby shortly. Does anyone have any good advice for someone about to try and join the company? Do the pilots enjoy working with BMI Baby?

You'll first have to attend a mini course about how to pass the interview, that'll cost you a bit.
Then go to the interview. Having paid your fees you are guaranteed to pass.
Monopoly at it's best.
You don't attend, you don't pass - simple.

Do you have hard evidence to suggest that there is someone taking backhanders to smooth candidates progress through the selection process?

It is being talked about at the airline.
Yes I could name names, but hope that it will go away without me having to do this.
I think it is beyond belief that certain people are being phoned and invited to this course, knowing full well that if they attend, their chances get much stronger of getting a job.

Disgusting and unfair, not to mention downright exploitative!

The course is advertised in the LOG, if you are a BALPA member.
