Monarch Anyone?

This may have come up already and if so, sorry to repeat it. Is there any suggestion that Monarch will accept further applications this year for experienced non-TR folks before stating the recruitment drive? Thanks. G

I would think so. Latest command projection is that pilots who have been with the Co since May 2011 will be considered for command. The expansion is still ongoing and not all those in the command bracket will have the hours or sim scores. If the Co expansion reaches the planned 70 airframes by 2018, then there is every chance that a person might do ok by applying and sticking with the Co.

What are the company's current Command upgrade criteria? How long does it take from joining the company on average? I realise that these figures can only be a rough estimate with rapid expansion though.

4000 hours, 3500 if you're superman in the sim. With the recent expansion guys are getting into the left seat after 5 or 6 years. Running out of FO's to promote too so the hour requirement may well drop.

Just had business update which confirms we are on track for the 2year cost saving targets which is what we expected. I reckon we will now find out by the end of this week the 300's will be history by October this year. After that announcement we will then be looking at another 30 odd commands. The request for guys to apply for these positions closes 1st June. So command board meets end June and then crack on with recruitment for later in the year. I would expect interviews September onwards so calls reasonable time before. Let you know if I hear anything.

Thanks Mesh.

For those of us in the hold from last year, are we likely to get any updates re our ongoing 'hold' status?

My understanding is that following last seasons recruitment drive we still have well over 1000 CVs on file. This combined with the very high workload within the training dept means we are unlikely to invite further applicants.

I understand that the course in Sept has already been filled and that interviews from the 'pool' will commence shortly.

I believe we are looking at 70+ recruits with a third type rated. Third non type rated. Third cadets including MPL.

Of course all info subject to the normal 'rumour only' caveat.

Good luck all.

As you say these things change by the day. I will put my neck on the line and say that as it currently stands we do intend to open up recruitment again, interviews this summer so if I'm right a little bit of hope for those still wishing to give it a crack. We will see......

Any idea what the non type rated criteria will be? Guys with jet experience- albeit not on the right jet? Or maybe TP drivers?

I've got light TP experience (5.7-6.3t) and want to know if I'm in with a shot.

Not sure what web site said last time. The only hard constraint that we use as far as I'm aware is 2000 hours minimum.

WX Man,

I have just over 2000 TT all on Caravan in PNG, and in the holding pool for interview, so you should be fine.

Yup sounds about right. I spoke with the head of recruitment the other day and the brief to the girls sorting the applications is 2000 hours and that's it...

Funny thing is, I've been checking their website fairly regularly for a while and I must have missed the job vacancy posted for Flight Deck Crew.

I sent a CV to the chief pilot in January (via email). I'm wondering if that was the correct channel to go through. How did you folks do it?

I sent in the paper application by post early last year, and also applied on the day the online application opened up last summer.

Hold for interview 2600 on the 737.

WX Man most of us (if not all) applied early June 2012 when there was a vacancy posted on their recruitment website for a brief period. As a result of this vacancy the people who were successful on the application stage have been placed on hold for an interview with regular updates from Monarchs HR department.

Speaking of which when was the last time anyone received an update from Monarch HR?
