Jet 2 terms
 
Dont think the advertised terms are still current!
My contacts tell me the leave policy has recently been downgraded and imposed on a "take it or leave it" basis.
Nice one jet2!

I really hope this gives opportunities to those who need it.

Jet2 is a good place to work. The crews are friendly and it is generally a happy place to be. There have been issues with the implementation of rostering for the summer - but rather the way it was implemented caused the problems.

I don't know the bases which are on offer, but Leeds is the biggest and busiest. We have bases in Blackpool (737), LBA (737 & 757), MAN (737 & 757), Newcastle (737 & 757), Edinburgh (737), STN (737), BFS(737) and EXT (737F) (but only 1 crew there, so no openings).

No nutter Germans please (non-nutter Germans are welcome, however).

Seems the application link is knackered.:ugh:

captplaystation 18th December 2008 20:48

Hope just knackered and not "removed".
One swallow doesn't equal springtime, but if they are really recruiting at least a tiny little bit of good news in the unremitting gloom, T's & C's can be taken care of when things get better guys, at least be happy if a few new jobs are offered.

Haha think I might know the German link!

Recruitment page mentions they're interviewing in January.

Best of luck, especially to all the guys ex - XL, Zoom, Silverjet, Flightline and EAC (plus others) who haven't found employment. I really hope its a bit of light at the end of the tunnel for them.

I Would Sooner Shot Myself Than Work For Jet 2

Thank you for that helpful posting Bahee 96. I think we'd rather SHOOT ourselves in our feet than have you work for us.

flying macaco 19th December 2008 11:28

Any reasoning behind the comment Bahee 96? Or just suicidal in general?

speedy688 19th December 2008 13:18

Bahee 96,

You ballbag! What an absolutely ridiculous comment to make. Its a job, flying jets, which pays (or helps to pay) the bills.

Do us a favour, let your balls drop & grow up before posting back on here!

I recently did a OPC with a guy from jet2, from his character and what he said about the place it does sound good. Good luck to those applying, particularly those who lost their jobs recently...:ok:

Not been funny but, after 3 months out of work i just need a job at the moment.

757flyer 19th December 2008 18:38

bahee96 quote"I Would Sooner Shot Myself Than Work For Jet 2 "

did you get the job with BA then? coz you sure showed a crap attitude on the BA recruitment thread as well!

:ugh::ugh:

tonker 19th December 2008 19:06

Bahee your right, they made me do 4 days work last month and made me take the cash too!!!

All this with Xmas to organise, children to thrash etc. How will i cope:rolleyes:

fredtheanorak 20th December 2008 06:32

so J2 jox, are there any openings and whats the link please. I couldnt find it:eek:

buzz boy 20th December 2008 09:59

Fred, the link is below my first post at the top of this thread!

Does anyone know how long the contract will be for and if there will be any chance of a perm contract in te future?

FlyingOfficerKite 20th December 2008 18:31

I just hope it isn't a 'fishing expedition' on the part of Jet2?! Surely they must be swamped with applications after the recent problems with other airlines?

Over the years so many operators have 'tested' the market in this way.

Hopefully those 'in the know' will determine the validity of the recruitment process.

FOK :)
