Bumping this old topic. Anyone invited for the online assessment last week? I did. Only need to finish the numerical test and then awaiting the response.
Edit: completed all the tests and unfortunately immediately received an e-mail with an rejection, despite I thought it went okay (besides the stupid verbal reasoning).
For who is interested: I have got a licence for practicing numerical and verbal reasoning tests which are used in the online assessment. The licence is valid till November this year. You may have it for 40 euro. Paypal payment is possible.

Xander , sugest your verbal reasoning online job prep was insufficient or aligned to a different skills set/ perspective, as seems unfortunatly to have got you the PFO letter?
€40 ? Lol Try € 400 there are some real gullable types on this forum .
Anyone been recruited and done a CCQ to A320 ? Should be cheaper than the £20000 full rating guys seem happy to stum up for, right ?

I heard the base freeze at Gatwick is 5yrs. It will take you another 2-3 years to get to another UK base.
Does anyone know if EZY are asking for cash up front for full type rating or are they just bonding for NTR DEC?

With today's announcement of hundreds of new Pilot positions next year, plus attrition towards BA's 350-400 requirement, it maybe worth holding out for them to have to bond NTR Pilots. I guess it's all about timing and market conditions.

another base
Base internal transfers will take much more than the stated 1-3 years after base freeze. You need to consider that people are waiting years for their transfers for internal UK bases or other popular bases. Better counting in decades....

Hi all.
applications now open for non rated FOs in UK bases (if they weren't already and I didn't notice).
The job post says permanent contracts so I presume that means no flexicrew for experienced FOs. Also the salary says between c£40k and c£70k. does anyone know whether this means that depending on experience they may offer direct entry FO or SFO (as opposed to SO)?
Many thanks

The only perm contract they will offer you is Second officer (what ever that means), 38k no flight pay or allowances, followed a few years later by an FO contract probably 75 percent! It makes no difference how experienced you are you will get the same S@it offer. I know from bitter experience and I was rated so god only knows what kind of deal they will offer regarding that, I would guess it will involve selling a kidney.

Not strictly true.
Possibly in the Uk you still join as an SO but in other countries the DE FOs joined IAW their experience and contract requirements.

Monkey tennis' question related to UK bases! I have no idea what's on offer in other European bases but if you're prepared to move country good luck to you.

BA won't be taking 350-400 again next year. 2017 sees a pause for breath in recruitment as there's only one new longhaul hull arriving. It will be ramping up again from 2018 onwards though.
