In another thread in section, freight jobs, you can read a story of a guy going to nuremberg doing the selection and found out IT WAS INDEED A SCAM.

Be careful guys.

@Pilot tron
keep your information for you.
i have done the process with those guys in Nuremberg and i had the phone interview with Unitop COO.
your friend is still sleeping
cheers
@Boeing737_IL
Well its the internet... free speech and all that... especially if its the truth.

And well that is interesting, I also emailed Abdul Saboor (the COO of Uni-Top) and unless I was talking to a fake Abdul hes the one that told me they are not using this agency. Anyone can find him on the internet and ask him for themselves, they do not have to believe me.

After reading all this I sent back a no thanks to do this screening in Germany.

hi9h_fly3r 4th Dec 2014 01:14

I'd be inclined to take this with a pinch of salt. I was under the impression that to be eligible to fly in China, you need quite serious hours, 3,000 seems to be an amount banded about a fair bit.

Who knows though, could be a start for some of you to get onto a jet. I wouldn't be paying anything for an assessment though, no way.

So, shall I take my chances or not??? How is the SIM? How professional is it done? Thanks for feeding me back!

Hodeld

Don't do it. I suggest you apply via the bestaviation.net site you will then be dealing with unitop. If this German screening is legit they will forward you there but I doubt they will.

After reading all those messages i will refuse to go for the screening in Nuremberg. I hava done 2 more interviews this year and in no one i have been required to pay anything else than maybe my flight to the interview city or my hotel... Sorry by my English..it´s not my first language..

Fieldins 4th Dec 2014 16:27

Hi guys!
I've applied at the end of October. After 1 week I've received an email.. "we have received your application.... blablabla..."
This mail spoke about an answer in three weeks. But I'm still waiting.
Anyone received a negative answer!???

Good luck!!!

Well.....as i have 2000 hrs on a single engine turboprop i dunno what "you meet all the requirements for the applied position, First Officer on Airbus A300-600" means, compared to what UNITOP indicates as minimum requirements for FOs.

Is still not specified the name of the Airline and all the other basic important info.
We are asked to make a phone call in Germany for that.
mah.

Congrats for your successfull screening in Germany. Could you tell us a bit more about it and why the conversation with the COO makes you confident for the following ? Thank you !

dboy 15th Dec 2014 09:05

Well, if you look at the pilotcareers.aero website, the job is "gone".

worldoffe 15th Dec 2014 12:38

I bet they have received enough applications so far.

Veren 18th Dec 2014 22:10

They're still going at it :O Too bad it looks so dodgy, would have enjoyed a stint in China as a first job.
thank you for your interest in the position.

We kindly ask you to be patient.

The recruitment team of pilotcareers.aero is reviewing your qualifications and will contact you if your profile matches for the applied position.

For all other ambitions do not hesitate to contact us.

A300F NTR FO
 
Hi guys I have received an email from pilotcareers.aero saying " congratulation you have been selected, please call us to know more details about the job offer, name and number was provided. I called them next day and i was told to come to germany for an assessment at my own cost nothing is provided. If successful TR is provided by company. The way they are doing things seems little weird to me, if anybody has more info would very much appreciate. I hold FAA ATP with 3000+ in ATR. Merry Xmas.
cheers

Uni Scam
 
The A300-600 program/training has not been approved by CAAC, all candidates that went to China have been placed on hold indefinitely. The principal recruiter is Sherlly. She works directly for Uni-Top. Captain Saboor thinks pilots are a dime a dozen. Do not spend your own money to interview. Be careful, because without a commitment of employment they will own you and you cannot go to any other Chinese Air Carrier. :=
