Anyone still not heard from initial application?

i see the A346 is now to remain in service until at least Summer 2020 rather than retired next month.
May need more crews? Prob due ongoing 787 engine woes.
Lot of unhappy 346 rated crew again seeing yet more months of unending JFK and last minute roster disruption, and yet more Junior pilots getting A350/787 Courses.

Anyone heard anything recently from Zenon? Last comms were a message in November saying should be about 3 weeks until they get round to the application but then nothing since? Are they still going through applications or have enough?

once again Virgin bashing!

yes the 346 is staying until after the summer, no they are not doing endless JFK rotations ( only one at present ) some people actually opted to stay on the 600.

Got a call yesterday to arrange a phone assessment. I would presume some competency based questions to be expected for this stage.

May I ask what kind of experience you have ?
Haven’t heard from them in a while

3000 hours A320. Can't say I've been impressed with their communication skills or lack thereof...

I think we can all agree Zenon have been a weak link here. I received an email at the beginning of November saying I'd hear further within three weeks. A courteous 'send all' email would have been fine (last month).

I'm glad it's not just me then, last communication I had from them was on the 07/11/19 (generic email giving a 3 week timeframe & apologising for the delay). Sent them a further email in mid-december after having heard nothing, had no response . . .

Hi all,

i got the same email from them at the beginning of November. In december called them again few times and then in January again and then I set up the appointments for the phone call interview. First Interview is just general questions about your hours, type rating and why you want to join Virgin Atlantic.

After that i can go quite quickly.

Good luck guys.

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

Zenon are a complete shower. 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.

Virgin can do bettter.

Virgin themselves are just as useless..

Thanks
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!

Cut-E in there.
