Vueling
 

Hi guys,

Where can I find info on Vueling recruitment?

Do they require a ICAO spanish diploma?

Thanks for your help

Anyone?! Any info on the company please?

Easy cake!
You should find all the information on their website :)

Spanish is a must and if you are not a Spanish citizen you need to pass the ICAO language proficiency test in Spanish (is available only the level 4). You can get it in Spain, just search an ICAO certified centre writing on Google. If you speak Italian is a plus. During their conference in Rome, they declared the intention to hire up to 60 italian pilots. Anyway... 300 "factorized" hours are required.
As far as I know this mean, for instance, 1 hour on a non-airline twin engine must be multiplied by 0.5 and A320 hours by 0.8, is getting always worst for poor cadets!

Good luck.

impossible to find info on ICAO Spanish test centers! it is not so easy so if you have a link of a center please post it here!

Here you are:

SERVICIOS Y ESTUDIOS PARA LA NAVEGACIÓN AÉREA Y LA SEGURIDAD AERONÁUTICA S.A.

Que tengan suerte.

thanks! Delta_Charlie! I have been looking for this for very long!
Do you know if Vueling wants to see a certificate before selection?

The "italian quota" mentioned by their CEO is bullsh1t, they need spanish second officers for a 6 month contract, willing to pay TR in their partner TRTO. Their application forms require applicants to have a spanish national ID, foreigners are required to have a spanish resident number. Do not forget the magic enchufe, it helps a little bit because they have been inonded of applications. Expect max duty every day and ridiculous pay slip every months up until the end of your seasonal contract.

I don't know if you have to upload the language certificate on their system, I applied without it, if required I will take it. I agree with seasexsun, so in my opinion it doesn't worth to travel to Madrid only to take the certificate, it's just other waste of money in this crazy market.

FTE Jerez does Spanish language certification up to level 6.

ECAE (Evaluación para las Comunicaciones Aeronáuticas en Español)
should give maximum level 4, try to ask to FTE Jerez.

if you are contacted for the selection day - they add items to attach to your CV:
pilot licence, logbooks, medical, english AND Spanish certificate- so no escaping possible... as you say an other barrier which will cost money to jump over...

Does anyone have relevant info about the selection process ?

As far as I know (I got invited for the first step) :
- (1) Prueba de conocimientos generales aeronáuticos
- (2) Pruebas de inglés
- (3) Psicotécnicos

I've heard that (1) is based on ACE mainly
(2) is quite easy apparently.
I have no clue about (3)... Anyone ? Any idea ?

Suerte a todos

no idea about the tests but I ll be going on the 12 as well.
Someone here who knows what is offered? Contract short term? Winters at home? x2, starting date? Pay for your own type rating?

Spanish certificate
 

I just honestly went to BCN one winter and learned Spanish there but I do not own any ICAO certificate for that matter...
Got invited for the interview as well! Does anyone know what language the whole interview will be spoken?


Good luck to you all :ok: ,

Have you applied without Spanish ICAO Level 4????

What the lady told me on the phone is that even the selection on 12 of December is in spanish and a level 4 is required by the second phase...

Anyone else has the same info?

oh... but is the technical interview in spanish? Or just the first general interview?

As far as I know both are in Spanish.


then they will check your English with a test and some questions in between of Spanish interview.



PS by the way, i don't see any surprise, all the requirements are clearly written on their website.

Spanish ICAO
 

Nope... lady that called me didn't even ask me for one. Do you hold one?

Hi,

These are the requirements stated on Vueling website:
Licencia de piloto CPL o PTLA EASA FCL o JAR FCL.
Certificado Médico Clase I.
Competencia lingüística en inglés Nivel 4.
Competencia lingüística en castellano Nivel 4 (solo para nacionalidades diferentes a la española).
Dominio del idioma inglés y español. Se valorará conocimiento del idioma italiano.
Nacionalidad Europea.
Experiencia proporcional a la edad y debidamente acreditada (mínimo 300 horas factorizadas según Convenio Colectivo Vueling Pilotos).

Even if the girl didnt ask you, you should have a certificate for aviation English and Spanish.

Basically all the assestment is based in Spanish language, a part from English test and at the interview some English will come up.

I hold the certificate for the level 4 in Spanish ICAO.
