All are Jet2's own staff.

I don't monitor the recruitment stuff regularly so please forgive me if a specific Spanish contractor recruitment drive is going at the moment, but there wasn't the last time I looked.

CU Failure Rate

I hear the recent failure rate is excessively high, anyone able to shed some light on this?

Pay Offer 2018

3% pay rise from April 2018, plus an additional £3000 on basic salary according to a letter in the post today.

Still not quite at industry standard, but the rate of pay for the work we do....

Yes, all ranks for those on full time contracts. Not sure how it will effect part timers but as they are paid percentages of the equivalent full time contract I would imagine there will be a pro rata increase.

The additional sum of £3,000 is based upon a full time contract, part-timers will get a proportion of this dependent on what their part time % is.

What is industry standard for an FO nowadays?

On pilotjobsnetwork the starting FO salary of Jet2 is stated as £58,534 as of April 2018. In comparison the starting salary at BA is stated as £55,150 as of September 2016, so it'll be a bit higher now, but probably not by that much.
Easyjet is £51748 as of December 2017.

Probably somewhere around those figures I'm guessing?!

Does anyone know the usual cycle for Jet2 taking applications from non type-rated types? I'm aware they have several type-rating course starting over the next few months?

When you have to give your current employer 12 months notice these things matter!

I have been in the talent holding pool for over 6 months now. I must admit that I am losing hope of ever being called forward. Such a shame, but it’s this or bust for me.

Mr Angry, got it in one!

Heard a lot about bad Ts and Cs scanning PPRUNE; I think my employer wins hands down!

This winter I understand around 140 have been/will be taken on with some sim assessments still to take place.
Don’t think the last of the orders arrive till Jan 2019 me old China!

Unless you know better than wiki, if so I stand corrected.

PPJN says Captain Basic starting salary is £100524 but also gives same figure as top scale.
So no salary scale increase to Captain Basic over time. That’s it?

Thats worrying, and the Jet2 pilots just let that happen?
No pilot union to protect pay and conditions there I take it?

Worryingly it sets a precedence for better airlines management to try and erode Pay and Conditions in order to compete.
