Be careful with such groups.
EI will insist that you leave such unofficial groups once you join.
They have a strict policy on usage of the company name in any private social media group.

Sorry to ressurect this thread but i have a quick question for any current or former aerlingus employees. I was not successful at the AL CC interview. Why I dont know. I did well as far as i can tell, anyway. I appilied for a Customer Service position with the airline and I wasnt even called for an aptitude test. Is this because i wasnt successful at interview and does that mean that i am blacklisted from all future employment opportunities with AL? Thanks

I had an interview for CC AL and was unsuccessful too I have recently had an interview for customer service agent 2 weeks ago it went very well and have not heard anything back so if I managed to get an interview your certainly not black listed

Short answer no, most companies ask you not to apply again for at least 6 months to a year anyway

Hi all just seen on AL website cabin crew recruitment opened up again yay!!

Robert T

I see Aer Lingus are recruiting again on their website, would anyone care to guess when the start date might be for new recruits?

I failed interview the last time. Is it a good idea to try again or is it too soon

I think they only allow it if 6 months has elapsed between applications !

Is anyone who is applying having trouble attaching your CV? I know it's probably something to do with the amount of people applying but just said I'd check in case it's my laptop!

Nope nothing yet what about you?

Maybe it's been put on hold. The airline industry can be very unpredictable. I don't think they would need new crew now until May and maybe they are not too sure themselves at this stage. Tomorrow it could be a different story. Good luck x

Just wondering if anybody is starting a training on Monday 30/03? I was supposed to get the information on training but still haven`t heard anything back from them and there is nobody in the office on Saturday to talk to.... Was talking to recruitment team yesterday and they were assuring me that i am starting on Monday... getting worried now

Has anyone heard anything further since the online aptitude test 6 weeks ago? I was at the Ryanair Assessment Day last week and somebody mentioned that interviews had been held and offers made by Aer Lingus.

Thanks for the reply Jack. Does that mean that the positions were filled or that the recruitment drive is no longer taking place?

All positions have been filled across the board. Next recruitment drive will not be until late 2015/early 2016.

Hello guys

I have lots of questions about cabin crew in aerlingus, would be great if you answered all of them, or even recomended somebody who you know works as a cabin crew in aerlingus.
So i did my leaving cert, and went college, did one year of college and now im about to do my exams, and im dropping out after that, its a pity but i really dont like my course, so i have been looking ryanair and aerlingus cabin crew recruitment, but came across that aerlingus would be better to work in so my questions are ;

1. what is the recruitment process like, interviews/training
2. what are the requirements? age/height/body type/languages etc. (experience?!)
3. is the training free and will i be provided with accomodation while training?
4. After training what exams are there and the rules
5. when do i start working
6. what are the wages? hourly/weekly/monthly, how much (if you dont mind telling me)
7. how many hours or days per week will i fly
8. how many days off or whatever (whats the graphic like?!)

Any other relevant information will be usefull, thankyou !!

Hey,

I actually went to an assessment day a few weeks ago aswell! I had read so many bad things too but there was no harm in going to see what it was like. The assessment day was actually fine really relaxed and the lady doing the interviews was really nice. There was a presentation she did going through everything like the cost of training and things like your uniform. The pay isn't good tbh she said it's between €1000-1200 a month depending on where you're based and then you pay for your uniform every month and if you are paying for training in instalments it's around another €300 a month out of your pay. A lot of people left after the presentation and didn't bother with interview after hearing about the money. You could always go to one of the assessment days and see if it suits you or not they have them pretty regularly I think.

Hi everyone,
I realise it's early days in Aer Lingus' November 2015 cabin crew recruitment drive, but has anyone else applied for their DUB positions? It would be great to get a discussion going about this drive, so as to keep in the loop...

Lilybee123

Hi greenarmy! I applied for Dublin crew on Saturday. Just checked my account and my application status is gone from submitted to 'no vacancy applications' so it must have been accepted into the system or something. Hoping to hear something in the next few weeks! Looking forward to starting the process. Best of luck to you 😊

greenarmy

Hi Lilybee123,
Great to hear from you! My status is the same on their careers page too. I also received an automated email confirming they received the application. It will be interesting to see if they follow the same route as late last year ie, online assessment, phone interview and finally a face to face interview. Best of luck to you too, fingers crossed!

Hey,

Oh yeah I got the same too. It will be interesting indeed. From reading through this thread, it seemed last year there was not much of a pattern to the process - with some people being offered a job within weeks of applying, some being told no sorry you didn't get the job, only to get a phone call to say they did a few weeks later!

So maybe it's a good thing to be very cautiously optimistic... :-) would love the job though!

That's great!! Hoping the recruitment process isn't too drawn out and that we hear something back soon enough after the online assessments are done! Best of luck to you have you done your assessment yet? I'm in work and it's killing me haha but want to be at home to make sure I have no distractions while I'm doing it.
