FO is 54818 basic plus shift allowance, sector pay etc
SFO is 72794 plus all of the above

is anyone in the hold pool waiting for a start date for a Berlin base? i was successful with the assessments in August 2018 and called the recruitment team twice, was given an estimate of summer 2019

PatelV6, may I ask what the assessment was like, specifically the sim...how tough was it and what was involved?

Also the HR face to face and is there a technical question session written or oral?

Goord afternoon guys and gals,

Anyone in the run for a DEFO in LIS? I had the thumbs up for the online test few weeks ago, could not make it to the tech-interview this month so I am waiting for the Dec's dates to become available.
Meanwhile I am after some information Re. the interview process itself. I understand that if held in LTN it might wrap together the Q&A with the SIM session while other venues i.e. LIS would imply that the SIM is left for a later date, is that correct?
Anyone with some tips, feedback, notes from previous and recent experience willing to share?
Also: do they have a factored-hours scheme still in place? I did some Google-search but what has come up seems outdated so any fresh details are very welcome.
Last but not least: the figures that can be found on PPJN Re. the different contracts (i.e. UK vs. ITA vs. PT vs...) are they reliable?

Thanks in advance

Any NTR FO talent pool swimmers recently offered starts dates for LGW/LTN or other U.K. bases for that matter? If so when did you get accepted into the pool?

UK FO recruitment is supposedly only on a 75% contract ?
Even if curent in type ?

Anyone had a recent UK FO offer ?

[Daddy Fantastic]

Anybody care to share their experience with regards to the sim check for CA and DEFO and what is involved?
Which sim centre do they use in LGW?

[CaptainProp]

They are advertising left right and center for rated and non-rated crew so my guess is that training program is set and slots filled for this winter and that's why you guys are not getting course starts. That's my best guess after adding up some information from friends who work for easyjet.

Anybody care to answer a couple of questions?

1. What is involved with regards to the sim assessment and if interviewing in Gatwick where do they do it?

2. Where do they do the type rating for DEFO and CA after offered a position with EasyJet?

If you are in the pool, its going to be a long swim for UK licence holders. Don’t hold your breath .

I think they’ve cut and paste that from the wording used on all the non UK based recruitment.

Those of us based in the UK will remain (lol) on UK issued licences and medicals. Everyone else on mainland Europe is currently being switched to Austrian.

I could be wrong but those who want a UK Base will still need a UK licence as you’ll be flying the aircraft remaining on the G register.

[EcamSurprise]

Yup, what VJW said. You'll need a UK licence for a UK base.

[highfive]

Strange that they would advertise for UK bases and ask to convert your licence to a german or Austrian one prior to joining?
i know the legalities for UK AOC, but Brexit turmoil and companies preparing for plan B or C may mean big changes for everyone.

[Merovingio]

any problem transferring licence to Austria?

[737 Jockey]

Any NTR DEC or DEFO received a course start date for early 2019? If so, for which base? 👍🏻

[Reversethrustset]

Nothing yet (DEC), they said at my selection day there was no holdpool and they'll offer start dates with the yes but I'm still waiting

Slightly concerning as I’ve been in the hold pool since April... 😬

[Reversethrustset]

Which bases did you specify at your selection day?

Well, seeing as my application was specifically for LGW & LTN, I put those plus STN.

Not much will happen for none type rated until Brexit is sorted out. All companies holding back on base commitments until they know the lay of the land.

Type rated guys continue to get start dates. Easier to train and transfer licences to another competent authority if necessary.

Unless a NTR pilot has an EASA licence that is non British then Brexit is immaterial as their licence will remain EASA regardless.
