For those of you clinging onto that last shred of hope, here's the latest from HR:


With reference to our previous correspondence to you, we would like to take this opportunity to update you on our
current position.

Our 2013 recruitment programme is now complete as our courses are now fully assigned and it is not anticipated at this
time to commence any further recruitment this year. We would like to advise you however, that it could well be 2014
before any additional recruitment is required as we are now waiting for fleet forecast for the 2014 period. Please be
assured that your details will remain on file for the time being and we will contact you again toward the end of the
year once our forecast has been confirmed to advise if your application has been progressed through to the next stage
for 2014 recruitment.

Thank you for your continued interest in Monarch and we hope to be back in contact again in the not too distant future.

Yours faithfully

Me too, frustrating, but nice to be kept in the know I suppose.

hobnobanyone 23rd Jul 2013 11:39

Same here - email received and read.

You're quite right coupled - that's that. So maybe the end of this year then, may not be depending on fleet review/order later this year. Suspect we'd all thought that was the case anyway.

Chins up...

Non-TR Courses
 
Can anyone tell me when Monarch are running their non-TR courses this year? Are they following last year's program with non-TR courses in November, February & March?

PAPI-74 7th Aug 2013 10:24

I hear that it is next Summer.

mesh 7th Aug 2013 20:32

You hear right at the moment. Course running Nov and Dec will be command upgrades and A300 to FBW conversion courses.

EMB-145LR 1st Nov 2013 15:51

All very quiet at the moment. Any plans for further recruitment? I've had an application in for over two years and my status has been 'hold for interview' for about 20 months now. Would dearly love the opportunity to present myself to them.

CEJM 1st Nov 2013 16:17

Recruitment has been completed for the year. I would expect them to start interviews late spring/early summer next year.

EMB-145LR 1st Nov 2013 16:40

Thanks for the update CEJM.

hobnobanyone 1st Nov 2013 22:48

I'm still hold for interview too and have been for seemingly ages now.

I've seen various snippets of information to suggest that there will be no pilot recruitment for the foreseeable - however - with the noises coming out of Luton at the moment, it would appear that there is an imminent announcement for the fleet renewal and expansion by the year 2020.

If this really is the case, I hope that it accelerates any recruitment into the airline. Seemingly most of the people at the present employer who were in the "hold for interview" pile have gone to sandier (or even oranger!) fields. Fingers crossed for some positive news in the imminent future.

Rushed Approach 4th Nov 2013 20:50

Recruitment will recommence probably May next year for our continued expansion of several units per year, or 30-40 pilots annually rough figures.

We have 6 MPL pilots of a total of 500+! We may recruit more in small numbers, but we continue to recruit non-MPL cadets, type rated (many from easy) and non-type rated pilots (including ex-military).

We even take ex-CAA! :ok:

beamer 5th Nov 2013 06:08

Is anyone at Monarch worried at the rate of expansion ? If you keep blowing into a balloon it will eventually go pop !

MaxPower2011 5th Nov 2013 07:30

Planned expansion is around 5-6 units per year taking us to around 60. I don't see that as reckless or excessive. Loads are up, expecting to be back into profit this year in line with targets. I have no concerns.

hardcase 13th Dec 2013 08:03

any update for us hold pool swimmers on recruitment in 2014???

Khaosai 14th Dec 2013 18:30

Hi,

Roll on the DEC opportunities.

Captain Spam Can 14th Dec 2013 19:47

khaosai, already ready heard of potential 9 DEC interviews from HR bods. Apparently too many CTC people there just like here at EZY, the insurers don't like it. Just a rumour though.

PilotsOfTheCaribbean 15th Dec 2013 02:13

With around 45 very experienced captains due to be re-fleeted over the next 10 months I wouldn't hold your breath on the DEC score. As for the cadets, they usually stop being cadets around 15 months after joining, and are in the command experience bracket at around the 4.5 - 5 year point. As they usually only form around a third of any recruitment drive, there is no shortage of experienced First Officers to draw on, even when TTC (Time to Command) falls to the 5 year level or below.

Khaosai 18th Dec 2013 08:19

Hi,

Great company and DEC in a few years would be a nice opportunity. Let's see how it goes.

Phenom100 22nd Jan 2014 21:00

Been in the holding pool for a while now, anyone have any updates? heard rumours possible recruitment in May.......

karanou 23rd Jan 2014 07:20

Last communication I recieved
Recruitment possibly to open up again late summer 2014/winter 2015
I understand there are courses organised at present for low experience guys from one of the integrated programs hopefully things open up for the rest of us later this year
Good luck
