Monarch Recruitment
 

Does anyone have any information regarding dates and numbers for Monarch recruitment this summer?

TVM :ok:

Sorry, meant recruitment this summer for jobs starting next year. However, you've answered that too - thanks.

Hi all.

Does anyone within have an update to the info above?

I’ve looked at the website and it doesn’t allude to much more!

Thanks in advance.


:ok:

latest internal rumour is approx 20 new first officers required for winter training. Worth a chat with the CP.

Anyone actually been called up, having submitted an online profile?

Lots of changes on the horizon over the next 6 months as we restructure the fleets and so on.

4 x 757 will go over this winter period with rumours of 0 - 4 replacements. Apparently we have plenty of medium haul charter work for next summer which would justify maintaining a larger 75 fleet ( fingers crossed ).

I have spoken to the training department this week to discuss airbus courses, possible fleet changes etc and they have what looks like 3 Airbus courses pencilled in over the winter training programme.

So I would suggest anyone who fit’s the Monarch experience criteria to do some research on the company and send CV’s to the CP.

After all you have to be in to win it!

Best of luck.[/SIZE]

Could anyone working at Monarch gives us a mode teailed insight into this rumours?

Thanks

Yeah 70 odd new hires sounds like a complete load of ****e!

Other than that 20 is the standard goss going around, but that depends on the 757 replacements, and any additional aircraft (if any).

All us FBW bods are hoping we pick up a 330 or 2 but thats just a bunch of desperate people including myself hoping to get onto the beach fleet. Nothings set in stone as yet.

But the way whats a 'confirmed rumour'??

Monarch holding pool
 

Just wondered if any of you are currently bobbing up and down in the holding pool, if so for how long for ?

Does anyone know how many are in the pool? etc...


:rolleyes:

Fox Hat man,

If the engineers are saying that, its probably true as they strangely enough are the first to know such matters. I have heard the 2 757s and 2 321s as well, not the 330 one as yet. But if true... Woo Hoo a week in Maldives, Goa, Calgary, Orlando, Cancun oh my im salivating! :}

Been in pool since June 07, was called a few weeks ago asking if I was still interested in a position. Courses early next year I was told, not given any other info, types etc.

Hi All,
I know the min hours needed are 2500 normally.. but would monarch consider taking low houred pilots other than from CTC or is it not even worth spending time thinking about it... ?

Thanks

1500 hours jet or turboprop and you might get a look in. I think it helps if you know somebody too from what I have seen.;)

Well I have a family member who is a Captain in Monarch..
Just need the hours now then..... :} :sad:

What about 76 drivers for the next season? Have about 1500 on 75 and 500 on the 76. Are they in a position to choose from vast number of those, bear in mind the latest belly ups.

The current rumour is that there are around 20/30 people who are in the holdpool with the aim of running courses in jan/feb, this is without any additional airplanes which Mon may get for any ex excel work . Suggest if you are interested get you c.v onto the system via the website and if you know someone in spotty m who would recommend you then get them to flag up your c.v internally.

for bjet: you need TT2500hrs which you may well have, and you would not be recuited directly onto the 767 if sucessful, 757 until your place in seniority came up for mixed fleet flying. As previous posters have mentioned - a personal recommend goes a long way at Monarch.

The recommendation may be more important than the total time as i know of people with considerably less than 2000hrs being successful recently so don't let the 2500 minimum put you off if you have someone on the inside

personal recommendations may help, but there are some captains who cant even get their sons an interview ?!?!? and some of their sons are already type rated .... as with most airlines 2,500TT is an ideal, but dont let that put you off.

I think Recruitment at Monarch is still anybody's guess.
The 2 new 75's still not confirmed even though they want them and with 3 (I believe) going in November = temporary fleet reduction. I think the 330 rumour was talk of picking one up from XL's demise but did not pull off.
The CTC cadets who started last spring still don't know if they are going to get a permanent contract at the end of the summer season. :{

Time will tell.
