Got a few messages from guys here about the contacting Zenon.
Zenon isn't the most punctual recruiting company, yet they are reasonable and understanding. If you received the email like I did and many of you, just give them a phone call and see if they can keep you updates about your application process. If they have the capacity they'll schedule your first phone interview then and there. So don't hesitate to contact them. Goodluck guys How much total time did you have when applying? |
Hi, guys. I have been through the phone interview with Zenon and now have received an email with a link for a psychometric test by Cut-e. Has anyone else got that and has anyone else done the test already? It'd be interesting to know what to expect. Thank you in advance!

How much total time did you have when applying? I had about1700 total time when applying. |
Does anyone know what the basic salary is on the B-payscale for 1500-3000h applicants, and if it includes any variable pay on top?
Cheers! |

Cheers! I’m interested to also know the answer to this if anyone has an information available? Cheers |
Year 1 FO - £63,500
Year 2 FO - £65,500 Year 3 SFO - £74,008 These figures are basic salary plus flying pay (fixed, non-variable 750hrs pa). Occasional additional earnings available through overtime but no guarantee. Finally, it isn’t a “B Scale” it’s just two extra rungs on the bottom of the existing seniority/pay ladder. |

Any idea how much overtime is?? |
Has anyone got through to the latter stages of the recruitment process with Zenon?
I believe the sim will be carried out in a 737. Does anyone know if it is similar to BA's fully manual 'LOE' style test? And the interview with Virgin, does this sill include some technical questions, or is it assumed this has now been tested and its a more 'getting to know you' interview? |

Any info on what to expect in the first stages of the process? Just a chat about motivation for joining etc or is it worth brushing up any bits of knowledge?
TIA |

TIA I've done the first 3 rounds with Zenon now. For the first round, don't worry at all. It will just be questions regarding your hours, current position and of course the question "why virgin?" The second round consist of online testing, testing your english, maths and psychometric thinking. It's all based on "non-experience grading". So don't worry when you think you didn't do too well on a round, because there are a lot of tests where you can show your qualities. And, no one really knows what they look for in the tests. The 3rd round is a competency based interview. Questions regarding how you would react. They have some questions where you have to explain certain situations during your career as 'outside of the box' and 'where did you go an extra mile'. Hope this helps. good luck |

................Ask any of the TCX pilots that applied months ago only to be emailed yesterday that VS only want people that have flown within the last 6 months............
One has to wonder what VAA want. On the one hand, many years' experience flying the same aircraft, same routes and same destinations does not seem to interest them, but on the other hand they only want pilots who will have flown within the previous 6 months at the time of joining - (May this year). Since TCX went under at the end of September last year, that excludes us. |
Sim ride LHR to LGW ,hold ,S/E or LGW to LHR hold S/E
