Ventura overseas

[vishwas_ddn]

Hi guys, I came across Ventura overseas, a company with head office in Malaysia offering pilot jobs for freshers in Indonesia, please put forward your views, has anyone enrolled and successfully got employed, does anyone know if the company is genuine.

Hi dude I also came across this just woundering if you got any news or info on it.

thanks

yes $45000 USD includes type rating, visa and arranging work permit.
this is the first venture of this sort for them.
considering we have to pay for our type rating even after getting hired by an indian carrier which is more or less equal to this amount, so is worth it?
anyone here considering this?

hi fellow aviators, well I got an entire training programme from them, the drawback which seems is the entire amount is paid in installments before we leave for Indonesia, I know few companies who ask for the last installment after we clear the simcheck with the airline in Indonesia, venture overseas is cheaper than others and the amount is payable to them in their Malaysian account, which seems a bit dodgy. what to you guys feel?

is this what mr.dharmesh said? did he say what if you did not clear the sim check?

[vishwas_ddn]

@ bayblade....well i did not get any reply from dharmesh, i had to call delhi office and get the trng. prospectus. we need a face to face conversation to sort the differences.

Any information regarding this one yet?
I had a word with a lady, she was not ready to disclose any airline name or the type rating school they'll be sending us for training. Infact she asked me to bring $16,000 DD/ Cheque when i come for interview in delhi...

isnt this strange

[Flying Mechanic]

I wonder how many will get sucked into this scheme!!

[ckalli]

offices in india and philippines..

the philippine office is back and beyond, prob the cheapest place to stay in manila!

bunch of jobless indian students trying to make a quick buck.. stay far away from this deal.

[bayblade]

the lady mentioned garuda, lion air and a couple of other airlines that i haven't heard about.

[SOPS]

Ok, I will bite..what excatly is a "fresher", and what in your right mind, what ever a "fresher" is, makes you consider giving ANYONE $45,000, a good idea????

Stay away from them. Looks like another blue star aviation. Most of the airlines they have mentioned are not recruiting currently, and Garuda does not hire expat first officers. Coming to Lion air, MSD has an exclusive contract for Indian passport holders. So I dont think guys at ventura overseas even have a clue about recruitments in Indonesia.

I agree. Stay away. Garuda won't hire you. Maybe Lion Air but why would you pay money to work 6 days a week for a blacklisted airline?

tsk tsk

How much trust can i place in a company which wants 25 hrs of "Stimulator" time?


For those quick readers. They have written stimulator instead of simulator in their training prospectus.

[aviator3233]

Does anyone know if all these airlines that they have mentioned hire female pilots or not cause as far as i know lion air doesn't and Indonesia is a muslim country

I found this link
http://ec.europa.eu/transport/air-ban/doc/list_en.pdf

It has list of Airlines blacklisted by the EU and also banned some airlines which also include the Lion Air. Would such things effect the credits to the pilots working for those airlines?

[vishwas_ddn]

i had the same doubt as elips....but guys what is the market position presently?

[aviator3233]

Venture overseas had vacancies in feb' 2012 for CPL holders in Scotland...now i dont know how the hell were they placing pilots in scotland wid pilots holding just their CPLs

[vishwas_ddn]

if I am right they were asking CPL holders for filing up ground duty and other sectors in airport duty, not as flight crew.
