Anyone recently taken a offshore job?

Does anyone have an ear to the ground on the current requirements for offshore co-pilot entry? Is a full IR required as advertised or are IREX passes being accepted? And are ATPL exam still being asked for? Plus any other knowledge of the process would be much appreciated.

PHI recently did some sim checks , recently for cadet pilot positions , which was fully funded. I believe those candidates required was a pass in irex and a NVFR.

Yet recently PHI are advertising for co-pilots requiring a MEIR and a aw139 type rating.

The pilots I know who got jobs last 6-8 months have already obtained a MEIR , some were given a AW139 type rating.

Take of it what you will.

With the labor government now looking at 200,000 intake for immigration per year , I'm sure there will be plenty to choose from for the off shore operators.

You can do a search on fair work for companies such as CHC enterprise agreements etc. The pay scale and allowance information will be there
