Thomson recruitment.

[mesh]

757/767 guys waiting to get start dates, I think they are sorting out crewing and aircraft levels before notifying the successful ones in December. I think we(Monarch) are due to loose a chunk of 757 drivers to them. Some didn't get the job, some have but are going elsewhere and some are taking it.

Blue, it'll be a mix I think, although majority 73. There's a matrix somewhere with available positions. I'll PM it if I remember this weekend although I'm level 2'ing tomorrow so I'll probably forget by then.. remind me!

Top man!
I'm still on PHI but hope to back soon (... just in time to be passed over again.)

[intheclouds1]

any 737 guys heard anything since the interview?

[mesh]

The friend I know has been interviewed for full contract but part year working to begin with, is this correct?

[Reacher19]

As far as I know those that were successful at the assessment stage were emailed a week ago and told to expect further news in December. I assume once the base moves etc have all been completed. GLA

Some colleagues have received offers this week but others not. Can anyone shed any light why this has happened? I'd it just admin time to call people? Have they reduced numbers? Are they just contacting those set for March start? Any info would be great, my mate starting to stress slightly having been told they have a position. Pm me if you need to, thanks

[DooblerChina]

We are still waiting for an internal bid to be published so I suspect the need is not fully finalised.

[mesh]

Thanks for your help, fingers crossed

[DooblerChina]

Mesh, I can only imagine the complexity of finalising exactly what they want to do next Summer is causing the delays. There is a huge program called one aviation meaning we operate as a virtual European airline now so whether TOM recruits next yet will depend as much on how much flying we will do in Europe or of course vice versa. There is a subtle expansion going on as well including a 73 into Brisol but who is going to fly it is anyone's guess.

Good luck

[DooblerChina]

Bid published last Friday so hopefully news soon. Although if nothing heard by the 24th, I suspect it'll be the new year. Just my opinion of course.

Good luck to those in limbo.

So who's joing the party so to speak. What new faces can we be happy to see.

[intheclouds1]

I've heard that a lot of people still haven't been called with an offer yet.. does that mean that all the places have been filled and those who haven't heard haven't made the cut?

Any chance of Non Rated recruitment?

[Matey]

I'm afraid not. Still specifically 737 type rated only.

[FlyingTinCans]

Any ideas what bases will be offered?

[Iver]

Are 757/767 slots going to internals? Were many Monarch 757 guys/gals picked up?

[Matey]

There is no mention of bases at the moment.The major bases such as MAN and LGW are not usually on the list. Having said that, some previous applicants who joined at the smaller outstations have subsequently been able to successfully bid for a move to a more desirable base from their point of view at a later date. There have been some bids from 737 to 757/767 internally with around 24 pilots transferring . There seems to be some fairly major re-planning of the summer programme at the moment, hence this new recruitment round.
