Beware of the trol1

Which airline is Nobox recruiting for?

Nobox isn't likely hiring for anyone and never did. They are/were a Ryanair recruiting agency hiring for Lauda for whatever reasons since they share the same business address as Crewlink. Just open Ryanair.workable.com and it's the same website but in green.

I guess it's for a Lauda expansion into the UK then?

No one is insane to expand.

From when Austrian media caught wind of nobox:

​​​​
Lauda doesn't even exist anymore. It's Lauda Europe aka in social media as Ryanair Austria... HQ in Malta. Absolute shambles.

Thanks for the info. Strange that they would put up an advert if there was no actual job?

There’s always loads of ads for non existent jobs - I think half these agencies get paid just for submitting valid candidates - sort of CV farming enterprise

Just think about all the data these agencies have on pilots at the moment: licenses, medicals, passports, logbook pages, addresses, phone numbers, email, etc. Worth a killing IMHO. Yes, i know about GDPR, but it's a dog eat dog World out there methinks...

Booze, I think you are right.

A lot of data harvesting going on at the moment.

Definitely true..

But I also have a hunch the companies themselves love this data. Didn't wizzair recently use the numbers of applicants to threaten inform their own crews how lucky they were to still be employed?

It's not just the number of applicants which is of some interest to HR and finance. It's also the profile of said applicants. As long as a given offer attracts a sufficient pool of experienced candidates, what's the incentive to try and offer anything better?

Which, IMHO, is a little bit pointless these days because no matter what you offer, there will be someone desperate enough to sign up for it. In at least 2 years from now the "survey job advert" tactic might give some meaningful answer to the question how low can T&Cs go while still attracting decent people; this year or next year It's a downright waste of time because so many people will happily go for anything out there, even if it involves moving to a war zone on half of their previous salaries.

I actually hadn't considered that, data is totally compromised when you have people lining out the door that would work for free coffee.

Sichuan Airlines? An A 320 skipper here, active and current CAAC license , many years in the Middle Kingdom elapsed, so far never been failed in Sim and never got punishment for events (luckily). Attended the Sichuan interview in recent times due to the lack of flight activity at my current outfit but I failed the Sim: it was way above my current flying ability .

NOBOX are/were based in Dublin, they were recruiting ATR72/600 NTR pilots for Stobart Air until Stobart
stopped recruitment due to the Covid. I spotted this on flight global just now.
