Green dot,

A year ago EZY was expecting to upgrade 150 captains and recruit +400 copilots for 2009, unfortunately things changed quickly afterwards :\

Doug the Head 17th Apr 2009 01:06


Maybe my expectation for Easy were a bit too high? :confused:
Too high? Nope, they were not low enough! :hmm:

I also know 2 guys that have been waiting for a long time now. They see 200 hours CTC cheap cadets taking their jobs, and that make them mad :rolleyes:

Only two things in life smell like fish. . . . . . and one of them is fish :D

Have to ask the TC boyfriend what the other one is ;)

No com from easy for us in the holding pool so you know what to do?

tell at all you r friends to take ba or af or another airline for holidays or buisnees but not easy:mad:

Frankly Mr Shankly 17th Apr 2009 15:58

I know it's frustrating for us hold pool types, however surely it's better if more people, not less, fly Ezy, the busier the airline, they may need more crews and who knows, even us lowly TRSS may, just MAY get a look in. One's thing for sure, if Ezy pax figures drop as you suggest, there ain't any hope whatsoever.

Nice attitude from someone in the hold pool.

I'll expect you'll soon change your tune should you get an offer in the post anytime soon . . . .

With comments like that I think you should loose your place in the hold pool to a more worthy candidate.

Its not a very orange comment to make. Strikes of petulant child ! :cool:

JPHIL68 20th Apr 2009 07:37

Loose my place in the holding pool.......and not a very ange comment....men are you dreaming too...norecruitement from holding pool for this year and then after 24 months ...go to garbage....
easyjet looks like a big ig joke at this time and to behonest i really don t knw if it s a good place to work for the future.....

That's obviously your opinion Phil, yet looking at the number of threads regarding applications for other airlines, maybe there's a reason why you're not getting any job offers?

If you PM me your details, I'm sure recruitment will be interested in your comments, and I'll see fit get you taken off the Hold Pool list to create a space for someone that sees their future at easyJet.

Or, just to be sure, we'll remove all frenchmen born in 1968...

JPHIL68 20th Apr 2009 12:54

My lovely english friend's for your informations i'm not more interested by easyjet regarding the poor HR department...ad to be complely honest i m completly disappointed with easy so i have a great life at this moment and i made a different choice ... so stay in your isle and if you like the orange it s your choice but try to be realistic.....so enjoy the sun in england with no holidays with easy :ok::ok::ok:


end of messages regarding easy, goodluck for non uk peoples in the pool:ok:

Hmmm, I suppose McDonald's aren't bad employers . . good for you.

Remember, it's a 'Royale' with Cheese on the continent and if you stay all day, you get ALL the stars.

Bon chance Phil!

nuageblanc 20th Apr 2009 17:46

Why Mac Donalds ? Why are we stupid when we tell the truth ? Jean-Phillippe has been very badly treated with the orange low cost, what he says is hard for you guys, but he is talking about true facts.
I have always suggested to go to main airlines (BA, AF, LH, etc...), this is real aviation and we have food and coffee and water and sodas all the time, as much as we want :ok:



Bonne chance
Try to learn French properly instead of showing us your lack of knowledge, bloody rosbif :oh:

While I sympathise with Phil's position, times are tough, and unfortunately the hold pool is rather full at this time. Be patient and everyone gets there in the end.

What I find wholly unacceptable, is Phil's attitude to a company he sits in the hold pool with. Publically encouraging people to boycott an airline who (at one stage I presume) he wanted to join - (it's no walk in the park to get in with easyJet) just serves to outline that his attitude when faced with a situation that doesn't suit him, is hardly becoming of a professional pilot.

Good luck to all those swimming right now, but Phil's approach to a rather long dip in the pool is akin to throwing his toys out of the preverbial pram.

[BTW Nuageblanc, don't pick me up on my spelling when you can't even spell 'McDonalds' correctly!)

Akrapovic, you obviously have no idea about either EZY or it's 'stafftravel.' Even a lot of employees don't even fly their own airline, because the competition is cheaper. Go figure... :rolleyes:


Hmmm, I suppose McDonald's aren't bad employers . . good for you.
So then why are you so desperately trying to defend the 'McDonalds of Aviation?' They will just treat you like sh!t, squeeze as many block hours out of you as legally possible, and after 5-10 years when you're burned out, they'll have no problem to replace you with the next happy-to-flip-burgers eager beaver who happens to be in the holding pool. Just like that famous Scottish restaurant... ;)

Loyalty and respect are supposed to be a mutual thing, in EZY it's a one way street.

nuageblanc 20th Apr 2009 18:27


Nuageblanc, don't pick me up on my spelling when you can't even spell 'McDonalds' correctly
sorry mate, I can't....however I can spell La Tour d'Argent, Le Bristol or Taillevent... but nous n'avons pas les même valeurs ;)

Akrapovic 20th Apr 2009 20:39

Well, I've never seen such a bunch of bitter and twisted job seekers on one thread . . .

Good luck chaps - I think you'll need it :ok:

Gary Lager 20th Apr 2009 20:43

Who says we're all job seekers?
