Aegean Airlines selection

[McMounty]

Is anyone heading down, or up, to Athens this month for F/O selections with Aegean via Parc Aviation? Info regarding their selection process is much appreciated!

Hi McMounty!
I'm going to ATH next week, but I don't have any feedback about the recruiting process...
Love to know more about that!
cheers

Don't worry about the process! That will be the last of your worries there.
Just basic stuff.....they are in need of contractors for the summer, but don't be expecting a friendly environment as you will be raking in more than a captain makes there. Long hours, a lot of dead heading and duty time sitting around waiting with no pay for that. But hey enjoy the sun and everything will be great!
Enjoy and Good luck!

would you be so kind to share with us your experience, if possible, when you're done?as in how many people were there with you, what the test assessment was like etc. etc

[Mike Lima]

I´m also invited! How do you guys deals with social security contributions? As far as I know, Parc and Aegean won´t pay anything

[Iver]

Why would anyone want to work for a Greek airline? Seriously? In this economic climate?

Good luck and god speed if you do!

Cause nowadays, the aviation industry is full of desperate people with a new license and fresh type rating, doing virtually anything to get a rung upwards in the ladder..

Is there any feedback from the guys that went to the A3 selection this week?Any info would be greatly appreciated

[petnik]

Your own nationals would go to Uganda and Indonesia to build up some SEP hours there. Can't find a reason why they wouldn't go to Greece!

Latetonite,

Aegean do not take freshly rated guys/gals with no other experience. .

[hellenic320]

very few pilots inexperienced have made the cut with less than 1000 hours on the bus.Their selection is pretty straight forward but this year they had a fail rate of 75% in the simulator for captains.if you dont have minimum 500 hours on the airbus dont bother applying.the airline is desperate for pilots especially for f/os but not so desperate.They keep high standards year round.they have a very good safety record and dont want to risk that

[Nightstop]

What's the pre-tax monthly pay for summer contract Captains?

[eaglesnest1972]

maxed out...
update yourself...if you are greek with the right connections everything is possible

[maxed-out]

Thanks. I received a nice PM from someone with regards to Aegean. Fact is, with so many rated experienced guys out there, my chances/expectations are somewhat realistic. My limited TP time is all single pilot as well, which doesn't help. Don't really have any connections either.

edited to add that I'm 42 soon, so another factor to consider before contemplating an A320TR.
