I heard a whisper that they were recruiting. I can't find any info though. Anyone know or is it just word of mouth from those in the know or who have had CV's in for a while?
Are there Interviews being offered at the moment?
Is the recruitment for Mainline, Baby or Regional?

bmi mainline are interviewing this week. They have recently taken on f/o's via GECAT's self-sponsored/monitored type rating.
Almost certainly they will not bother spending money advertising vacancies but send in a CV if you are type rated/experienced and really serious about struggling in to LHR day in day out!

If you need to ask if they are recruiting then you have, in all probability, missed the boat. There is little point worrying about how many people they are going to recruit, they will either recruit you or they will not . Having a successful interview helps though - hence the request for any information.

Does anyone know how many non type rated FO they are looking for?

Skintman.
Not sure why we are looking, I am not involved with the process or any sort of mangement (thank goodness). There are rumours, as always, of more routes and more aircraft but nothing firm. We have had a lot of FO's leave for BA and Virgin , some Captains to Easy and no doubt some more in the pipeline so some will be replacements. Could be a while before anyone is offered a start date I would think, if anything we are over crewed for the winter.

All the parts of the group recruit their own pilots, I have no idea what Regional and Baby are doing at the moment. Mainline interviews will be for LHR based Airbus FO's.

A reduction in current Airbus Fleet, no new aircraft on order and Embraers operating on more routes.
I would suggest the 40 are to plug the hole, which shows remarkable foresight.
The reality is that each pilot that leaves saves the company money so why stop the flood, at least that seems to be the game plan, remember save money at all costs.
I’m sure all will become clear in 2009 but I wouldn’t expect it to be good news.
