Cargolux Recruitment
Hi folks,
Is there anyone out there who could shed some light on working for Cargolux for me?
What are rosters like?
Wages?
Career advancement?
Living in Luxembourg?
What is Cargolux like as a company?
All seems very interesting from the outside.
Feel free to leave your email address if you prefer...
Many thanks,
Zebedee Says Boing

Hello everyone,
I´m also thinking about applying with Cargolux and I´m looking for some recent info about Cargolux.
Some questions:
Have schedules/rosters improved lately?
I´ve read that this has been a longstanding issue and I´m looking for an improvement to my current LoCost job, not a deterioration.
Is the interview process still the same, i.e. computer based testing at Sarrelouis? (I suck at those tests, but strangely never have any problems in the sim or in normal life...)
Pay? Any rough indications? I´ve read one post claiming ₤1800/month plus ₤1000 in expenses. Roughly €4000/month. Is that correct?
My background:
>3000 hours total time
>1000 hours jet
> 2500 hours multi pilot
Thanks a lot!
p.s. please feel free to PM me!

You can be 18 days on tour in a month.
Favorite layovers? Difficult to say. The Germans like to be in South America, others like Asia. It's personal.
Commuting is possible but costs you a lot of time. Each month you have a 7 days off period,but between tours of a week there can be as little rest as 48 hours. And that is what makes commuting difficult. During sby you have to be in LUX too. So you'll need something where you can sleep.
