Travel service interview and conditions.
 
Hi all,

I have just been offered an interview with them, on PPJN the money is quoted as about €1200 for a first officer with my hours on type, is this true?? Also has anyone recently been through screening? I have been given a detailed description of the selection process in the e-mail and it sounds like an Air Force selection, compass test , 60 minute tech interview , 120 minute chat with a psychologist , 120 min group exercise , psychometric test , aviation knowledge test , and then sim....

I hope thats after Tax or your not coming out with very much

SOPS 21st February 2014 06:24

Does not sound like a lot of money to me.

Crashlanding 21st February 2014 18:19

Nope, but just enough to live on, not well, probably similar to what i get after the through the roof prices i pay

You think it could be €1200 and you still want to know about the selection process? :eek:

TheColonel 21st February 2014 21:36

I can confirm its 1200eur even if your type rated 737... Why you would go there... Beats me.

That is a bad Bad BAD BAD joke of a salary to fly a commercial jet transport in any capacity.

Pathetic :mad:

BAe 146-100 21st February 2014 23:11

Usually the ones that pay the least have the hardest selection.

Look on the bright side it's not P2F.

On the downside my brothers a postman and he gets 50% more than that.....

Relax everyone, I'm sure it's just a typo, and really it's meant to be 1200 Euro per day.....:rolleyes:

A340rider 24th February 2014 08:02

all that screening for 1200euro a month :ugh:! Less than 50 quid a day on a 22 day month.. what a pile of crap airline...morale must be great..

Had a chance to fly with some of their guys. Met very good guys and not so good ones. For sure the spread is larger then with the legacy carriers. The backgrounds are very different, military guys, cadets and guys that flew little GA aircraft till their 40s and then moved to the 737. What they all told me is that management is not treating them very kind, politely expressed. Those who have a chance will jump ship at the next possibility.

Currently work here, the rumor goes that for the first 18 months as cadet the wage is like that. You get per diems, can expect thay can be about half the wage extra. One of the things what the company counts on is the worldwide flying you get, very interesting destinations, lot of ACMI and you know not many operate with 738 from EU to Dominicana i.e. There are some highs, some lows as always. 107 destinations, 44 countries, 3years of service. Quick progress to LHS is another.

Is it true that junior FO's salary is 660 euro for first 18 months?:eek:

Travel Service Pilot Jobs Network

Can anybody confirm that?

maybepilot 15th June 2014 00:55

Recently met them in a hotel down route , pathetic money and totally anti-social rosters.
How much lower can this profession get?

660 euro for first 18 months?
 
Hi RedBullGaveMeWings,

660EUR/month for the first 18 months is reasonable.

As an example...My mother works 40 hours a day and she is employed by the government for the same money. She is not a freshly recruited employee, with 30 years behind her back, and on the top of this she is happy with what she gets.

A real aviator does not looking the paycheck but lives for his passion! If they offer you a job take it and be happy that you can do what you love.

latetonite 15th June 2014 07:14

Still..40 hrs a day is a lot.

hungarian_aviator 15th June 2014 07:28

Sorry latetonite for the typo...I meant to say 40 a week. I haven't had my coffee yet. :)
