No, they probably won’t. However, I have friends on the reserve list for LGW commands this training year (until June) yet to be called which indicates there is no shortage of people willing to take LGW commands.

I have recently been offered a 75% contract at LGW as a new joiner, meaning 100% during summer and 50% during winter. Should I also expect to be asked to upgrade to a 100% year-round contract quite soon, or will I most likely be stuck at 50% for the winter season?

Was offered 100% before end of growing school.

Don't suppose anyone could advise whether those eligible for SFO are being offered fixed pattern at time of joining (subject to 100% roster)?

In March 2017, at the interview day, we were told all FOs/SFOs would join on flexi roster and 90% pay for 6 months. When I received the offer for LGW in June 2017 I was given the choice of flex or fixed and 100% salary from day one. I was rated with around 4000hrs at the time.

Sorry I don’t have any more up to date info but I imagine the recruitment situation is similar nowadays.

[Serenity]

Yes. From day 1, joining 2019, fixed pattern. 100%.

[The Cleaner]

+1 to the above!

Hi all,

Anybody know when they will be recruiting DEC’s again?

Also if somebody could send me a private message with a contact detail for HR?

cheers.

I’ve mates who’ve been in the DEC hold pool over a year- with eJ extending their stay an additional 6 months. I’ve no idea of the recruitment plans but draw a conclusion from that if you want :/

Conclusion drawn, thanks:;

Sorry for the news but on re- reading the friends I have waiting for a call are all non rated. I don’t know your details but maybe the chance of needing rated DEC’s is better but I’ve no idea.

Intake for S19 has been completed a while ago, still many of them being trained as we speak. Recruitment/Available slots for DEC's might slow down for next year, last 2 internal command courses have been cancelled for this summer. FO's in the company always get priority over DEC's so there seem to be an internal cue as well.
