I applied a month ago for low hour non TR and application was still open, I don't know now. I only received the confirmation e-mail but it doesn't say that they will contact you if your application is unsuccessful but only should it result successful so we might never get any answer.
Cheers

Mobius , that category ended about a month ago mate. They are currently on TR , the people selected.

When I applied the application process was still available for non type rated with low hours but probably they have already covered all positions at that moment. Thanks for the info by the way.
Cheers

The apps of no-rated took them by storm, recruitment likely to continue into 2012 and even some no-TR selected guys have been put on hold till internal decisions are made. The not selected will receive some kind of "No thanks but no". Words & music from HR dept. Do not shoot the messenger...:uhoh:

*sigh*

I guess the saying 'no news is good news' really doesn't apply when hunting for a flying job :bored:

Hi I attended the Jet2 interview early Nov. Just wondering if anyone has heard or how long it takes to hear if successful. Thanks in advance.

Still waiting to hear as well. They didn't give any indication of when they'd let us know, just that they would either way, so I guess just a waiting game.

Hi, are you two guys experienced or type rated??

I'm experienced, non-typed. Can't speak for jamieboy

I'm experienced and type-rated DEC. Hoping to hear something soon.

Any TR experienced FO's heard anything yet?

Not yet........ At least I'm not the only one!!! I got an instant automated reply from my application....... and I have heard nothing since. Almost 3 months since I applied!!!

Don't worry I'm in the same boat just a matter of patience.


Regards

Can anyone who has been through the J2 selection this year briefly cover what is involved in the compass tests...

I already have the Cockpit web software which adequately covers preperation for the BA DEP capacity tests. Is compass testing similar?

Also, I heard there is a technical exam for TR guys. If true, what does it cover... type specific systems, perfomance or ATPL type stuff? Thanks.

Sector pay FO
 

Could anyone give an approx figure per annum of the sector pay you would earn as a TR experienced FO please?

Am i correct in thinking a TR / Experienced FO receives in the region of £43k rising to £45k in April 2012? Do you receive this whilst line training?

Thanks in advance

You are correct on the salary front. 50% salary until final line check.

Thanks Mini-Jumbo 50%! Crikey how long does the line training take not long i hope!!

Any idea on sector pay once on the line?

Thanks

Yes, COMPASS testing is part of assessment now. Caught us by surprise as we only found out when we arrived there....

Hand eye coordination, memory, orientation, maths, basic physics, a few ATPL questions.

Compass Test
 

Yes compass test takes up most of the day, Forget how well the interview goes if you dont pass the compass test you dont go through regardless of experience.

Just wondering if anyone who attended selection earlier in the month has heard anything? Attended beginning of the month, had an email saying assement went well and application being reiviewed, but nothing further.

Cheers

Yes I am in the same situation as you mini-jumbo. I passed the assessment and received the same email you did, it was a tad confusing so I called them to clarify. Basically all of the successful candidates are now with the fleet/base captains who will decide how many people they need in each base and try and match us up to our base requests. I'm hopeful we will hear something by the end of this week?!

Does anyone have any idea how many crew J2 are looking for in 2012. Seems to be lots of assessment days recently. Anybody got an offer yet.

In a fairly recent internal memo it was mentioned they were recruiting 125 new pilots.

Good news if you want a NCL base

Jet2.com turns the spotlight on Newcastle | CAPA

Just wondering, did anyone with turbo prop experience but no jet time get a positive response to their application?

Going for interview next Tuesday (13th). Email says:

The format of the day will include: Introduction Meeting, Aptitude Testing, One to One Interview, Paperwork and a Group Exercise. We anticipate the day to finish by 4:00PM and will be providing teas, coffees and lunch for your convenience.

Few questions then please. Is this 'aptitude testing' the COMPASS testing? What is the interview likely to be? Technical or otherwise? I'm guessing just 'Why do you want to work for Jet2' etc...

Cheers

What experience are people applying with?

and having success.

7000 hrs total 1000 on 737 applied as TR FO, no reply.

8000 hrs, 3500 on type 757/767 applied as TR FO, no reply

With those levels of experience you guys must be incredibly frustrated at not getting even a simple reply - I know I would be!!

I know the computer system is far from perfect, and the HR are overworked; I really think that your applications could potentially have been missed/overlooked - why not give them a call if you are still interested?

close 4,000 hrs, mostly on type, passed selection and waiting on further news. Not expecting to hear anything until the new year.

Nearly 4000 Hrs, 3700 on type, still no reply. Went via TR FO.

Heard there is an interview ongoing today, maybe in EDI. Anyone that have attended? What level of experience this time?

:confused:

Sorry to bang on about the online system again as I know it has been covered. My situation is that I applied 2 years ago for the non-type rated position. And now with a few years experience on the B737 I would like to apply again. Somehow my original application is still on there and can't be deleted, hence it won't let me apply again! Tried re-registering with a different email address, but receive an error message that the page has not been found.

Anyone else still unable to apply online due to error messages? Sent an email to the HR department so will see what they say....

Yes me.
I tried re submitting my application but it won't let me. I'm type rated on the 737.

Considering jobs outside aviation now I hear you get Christmas and weekends off with non flying jobs!

and if you work for JCB you get a 5.2% pay rise and a Christmas bonus!

Luxury!

Has anybody who attended J2 pilot assessment days in November or December, and passed, heard anything since?

We should be hearing something sometime soon so I was told. The delay due to fleet manager being on annual leave and also the holiday period.

Some people have been offered jobs today, both LHS and RHS (contract through Zenon).
