I didn’t chase them during any of it, but I got the generic hold pool emails then a call for a course last month. I understand Airbus deliveries got delayed by Airbus from 2 per month from Jan 24 to just 2 for the year, but that is due to ramp up from next year to 2-3 aircraft per month from Jan 25, so expect the hold pool for the Airbus to start moving fairly soon I’d suggest. My experience in calling the recruitment dept has been very positive. I always left a friendly voicemail and gave times that l’d be available for a call back. They’ve been professional, open, honest and friendly, which is a total opposite from my current employer, so a good start so far! |
Number
Does anyone have a good number to contact recruitment on? I've sent a few linkedin messages and an email or two but not had any responses. Would just like to touch bases and see if any updates are available.
Many thanks in advance. |
Same happened to me in 2019… shocking they’re still treating people like that, anyway moved on got a better job!

Where did you end up? |
It’s not personal, there just aren’t enough spare office staff to phone everybody up regularly just to tell them there isn’t a place available yet. Once there is a slot for you, the phone call will come straight away. Otherwise, you’re just in the pool waiting, along with everybody else who’s passed.

I actually managed to get a linkedin message back from a recruiter that it said exactly that. I know they are really busy with a large recruitment drive so I understand they can't keep calling everyone. Oh well I'll just keep the phone on loud and fingers crossed. 🤞🏻 |
Has anyone had any calls or updates?
|
Not personally but someone I know had a call the other day for a start date in 2025.
|
Start dates in 2025 but assessments still happening constantly. Must be hundreds of people in the hold pool by now.
|
Does anyone know if there is a time limit after passing the assessment process and sitting in the hold pool before having to reassess in the sim or the interview?
|
Not officially but I think GDPR regulations might dictate how long he company are allowed to retain your information on file if you're not an employee, just a guess. Quite a number of current employees who were in the holding pool prior to the pandemic had to reapply and do selection again as the hold pool was dissolved due to GDPR.

Hold pool flush?
Waiting in the hold pool for the last 4 month for a position to become avaliable and then just received an automated email saying my application was unsuccessful despite having had a phone call confirming my success and place in the pool.....
Has anyone else had a similar experience? I tried calling but they would not put me through to hr or recruitment. I've sent an email requesting clarity but just wanted to know if this has happened to anyone else? It seems like they have a huge number of positions to fill in the next 2 years so It seems strange to flush out a pilot that met the standards and is awaiting a job.... |

Yes I've been in the hold pool for 9 months, received the call and a few emails earlier this year informing me that I was still active in the hold pool and no need to reapply. And today received the same unsuccessful automated email.
Have you made any attempt to contact them? I can't help but feel this is an automated error? It would be such a strange decision to spend all that money and time recruiting us to then completely remove us from the running when there are still jobs to fill. Also an automated email with no explanation after all the time we've waited and effort we have all put in would be incredibly cold. |

Not exactly in line with their company values. |
Has anyone heard any more..?

Seems like they have a list in order of preference for the hold pool with your scores from interview. Those at the top of the list have been offered a place. They’ll get round to you as the list gets reduced. Unlikely they’ve forgotten you, and unlikely you are no longer in the hold pool if they haven’t said anything.

I hope that is the case. As it stands my candidate profile on the Jet2 careers site shows as unsuccessful now, after spending a number of months in the hold pool. Is there anyone on here with any info on recruitment at Jet2 in regards to the recent hold pool emails? I've not had any response from them so may start the application process again.
All I can say is that I've been in the hold pool for 7 months, and had an email last week updating my career profile to the 'Interview' stage. |
