Meaning what? There are a plenty of people here who started as cadets including some of the latest joiners.
There is a selection in June so recruitment is on going. On to what terms and conditions I don't know but I believe (not know) it'll be a fixed term (1/2 year) contract.
Recruitment is done by EZS in GVA.
As for how to apply - if you wait for an application online you'll probably be too late.

Hi everybody
Probably you are right about the work permits.......
And as i understood they have their own TRTO in switzerland,correct?
But easyJet Switzerland is not sponsoring the rating anymore, it must be self-sponsored,correct?
-the right question is how much is the cost?
"type rating + line training i suppose"?
Then easyJet Switzerland will only offer fixed term contracts through a flight crew leasing agency in Switzerland.
-do you know the NAME of the agency?
-do you know the terms of this new contract?
-what can we expect ?
salary,work condition "duty,rest time,vacation"
and how long is the fixed contract ?
Finally at the end of the contract .....?
thank you , happy landing

The agency is called 'Resource Consulting AG' based in Zug. Permanent contracts will apparently be offered, subject to performance, when new Ts and Cs are negotiated with our union.
As for how much the TR will be - probably in the region of at least 30000 CHFs but that is a guess. Expect to be based in GVA with the potential to transfer to BSL. Expect to work a lot in the summer and potentially (almost certainly in my opinion) be stood down in the winter.
Yes I work for them but this new contract stuff is......new - and not much info has been issued regarding it.

Thanks a lot byflier
But what is the purpose for them to have pilots via a flight crew leasing agency "Switzerland" , comparing with before.?
What about :
the salary
Additional Duty Pay or Per Diems
day off "min 12 for EASYJET SWISS PILOT" , holidays
the Pension....
i suppose at least 10% LESS for the salary comparing with an easyjet
swiss contract.
And during the winter,if i am stood down ,who will pay me"the agency???"
and how much less."at least 20% according the swiss law if 80% paid by the agency ",i hope.
I have to take care because it a self-sponsored TR , so a least 2 years and then an easyjet swiss contract, if i am optimist.
It must be a win win , no only in one way.
I know there is not a lot infos at that time , but it would be great to have an overview......

This kind of contract had to find its way to Switzerland one day...
84chf per scheduled hour, no minimum income guaranteed, 200chf for a SBY...
Good luck to the new guys, GVA is not the cheapest place on earth. I am offering a brand new caravan if 5 or 6 of you want a place to sleep on the car park (which you might have to pay by yourselves, BTW).

They are recruiting - 36K CHF for a type rating, paid by the hour. If you're already rated I think you're bonded for, or in fact perhaps have to pay, 15K CHFs. Still paid by the hour. You'll all do what you want to do and if you don't someone else will. Tough choice.
