Rhodes 13 re: Cathay Interview

People seem to ignore the facts. Many airlines make you pay for an interview the esteemed Cathay pacific make you pay initailly then they pick up the tab


Sorry mate, but you're the one with his facts mixed up... Cathay invites you to the first interview (any travel/accomodation expenses are your concern) but they certainly don't charge you for the privilege of being grilled....

Matter of fact if you make it to the second interview they fedex you a CX ticket to get to HKG (albeit in economy), put you up in their hotel AND pay you a generous per diem (allowance) for the two days you spend there which I thought was fairly impressive.

Then if you get hired you are IMMEDIATELY on full payscale plus allowance from day one.

Matter of fact their generosity and professional demeanour during selection process/ initial training is one of the reason plenty of talented professionals have been "suckered in" to work for them!

There may be a lot wrong with CX but frankly I wouldn't work for Mr. O'Leary if he came begging me on his knees!

Rant mode off

It's not what my mates tell me. They hate the place. And they DO have to bring their own gash bags. Perhaps, with youthful good looks and inexperience on your side in Ryanair, the hosties are just breaking you in gently?? lol

Watch out. Hot Chocolate will make you fat too...

One day you will agree with me. How much lower can it go in FR??

And Stansdead, where exactly do you work? Are you in £80,000 of debt with only a handful of airlines recruiting. Tell me of anyone else recruiting bar FR, flybe and CTC.

I've been sitting here idle watching your comments recently and all you do is slag off every other airline apart from your own.

If you are such a perfect individual who works for such a great outfit tell us what you would do in a position such as the above....

Your indebtedness is not my problem, or of any interest to me. You borrowed it, you must pay it back.

You are obviously very new to this game, so I will cut you some slack.

But, as long as there are people like you, praising your Chief Exec on pprune and elsewhere, then the worse your pay and conditions will get. And by extension, so will everyone else's.

Our industry used be one where we as pilots were respected. Now, we are reduced to being called "mate" by passengers and cleaners. That has a lot to do with the fact that we have let ourselves be bullied into submission by people like your boss.

In a few years time you will understand what I mean.

The sad fact is this: You know nothing. You are new into FR anf course you are pleased to be there. However, you have no idea how badly shafted you are and just what a poor deal you are on. Even your Skippers pay is low, when compared, like for like with airlines that offer you any knid of benefits at all.

Enjoy your flying, but don't believe the hype. You will hate it soon enough is my guess.

Good luck in repaying your debt. It takes ages. I know.

Not worth the paper it's written on

The salary figures quoted in the posts on the first page of this thread are accurate. However they don't mean anything. Even the salary figure written down on your ryanair contract is meaningless.

Management in ryanair have regularly made 'errors' in the salary figure written on contracts;.......you contact management to inform then that you are receiving less money into your account than you should be and that wages going in are significantly less than the contractually agreed sum. They then say to you that there has been an 'error' made......' Sorry, we accidentally gave you a contract with too high a salary. We will send you a new contract with a new lower salary figure. I suggest you sign it.'

Agreed dates for incremental pay increases are equally meaningless. Conditions of such increases are subject to the creative interpretation of management.

I assure you there is no hyperbole in my post.

The good empathetic souls constituting ryanair management are required to be continuously innovative in they way costs are reduced.

They will lie, cheat and break the law. Have a look at the recent thread called 'Pilot wins £70,000 after pay dispute' in the rumours and news forum.
