I've looked at the bmi recruitment page and also noted the pilot recruitment. Link as follows:
http://www.flybmi.com/bmi/en-gb/abou...cruitment.aspx
I clicked on the pilot recruitment link and it looks as though you can fill out an application form. Don't know how long it's been there so won't get my hopes up yet.....

I've had a look at bmi's site and also seen pilot recruitment under the cabin crew section. I clicked on the link and by the looks of it you can complete an application. Maybe some good news to come.....???

Ahhh, found it!!!
Oh well I would guess this must be promising, why go to the bother of setting this up if they have no intention of recruiting?
As a side issue does anyone know the starting salary for F/O? Also does it make a difference if you are going in with thousands of hours or just a few hundred as to what payscale you go on?
Heres hoping it's going to start moving soon.

2008 Mainline FOs pay scales are:
Year 1 £40,109
Year 2 £45,816 (big jump on year 1 due to 2007 pay deal reducing year 1 salary)
Annual increments of approx. £800-1000
No difference on what you get paid if you have 10,000 hours or 250.
London weighting is now £2800 per year.
Life at bmi has got a whole lot more interesting with the mid haul flying we are now doing and hopefully some more long haul from LHR to come as well. Good luck to all those in the 'pool

Max, good info thanks! I remember seeing somewhere (can't remember where) about there being an A scale and a B scale with the B scale being higher? Is that still the case and if so whats the story between the two? (Apart from one being higher than the other!)
Your figures for London Weighting - is that included in the £40,109 or to be added on?

London weighting is on top of the basic quoted. We do have scale B which is 10-12% higher but only the very top of the seniority list get it (worked out on the number of widebody airframes we operate).

Good man thanks. bmi seems to have such massive potential could/should be a really good job if the management steer it in the right way.
Thanks again and hope all you guys in the pool get out soon - must be freezing!

I think skylog was probably following the link given in his confirmation email which incorrectly takes you to the cabin crew log-in page - it looks almost identical to the flight crew log-in page but, naturally, won't recognise your log-in details.

Has anyone tried to apply on the website recently? I have successfully logged in and filled out most of the pages but when I've tried to submit the "You and Us" page it stalls and I can't input the information......Anyone been successful at this?
