Great video! I'm retired from NetJets since 2016. I particularly like the description of what we do in the first part of this presentation, and I'll be sending it to friends & family for that reason. Best of luck in your negotiations.
@@Alokiarpiro The FA’s work very hard. It’s usually just one person and you may be expected to serve two meals with linens, china & silverware. Cleaning & reorganizing during flights is ongoing. After transatlantic flights, some FAs would say the felt like they had “walked across the ocean”. There’s a lot of personalized service, so dealing directly with pax reps & caterers to procure special items, for example. The copilot will join you immediately after a flight as soon as the pax are gone to clean & reorganize the cabin to your liking (it depends on what’s next: another flight, an overnight, or giving the airplane to another crew). The Captain will normally also assist after his paperwork is done, assuming he’s not totally occupied with the next leg or a maintenance issue. That’s a very rough outline, and I’m guessing they’d appreciate that you’re familiar with it. IMO, the best FAs were flexible, very service oriented, creative, and above all good team players. Smart pilots realize the FA can be the key to a successful flight, particularly with regard to customer satisfaction. Any experience you’ve had with VIP handling would be a plus. Some of our FA’s had worked aboard luxury yachts or worked at exclusive hotels. Many spoke a foreign language. I had done the ground handling of VIP flights at the AFB on Guam, and they seemed very interested in that during my interview. Being an FA in First Class for international airlines is also a plus (though it’s not really the same thing). The FAs are given excellent training with regard to the same duties they share with airline FAs. But there’s also additional training in VIP service & etiquette. Finally, I’d add that even if you have none of the experience or qualifications I mentioned, apply anyway! Some are hired just on the recognition of their personality & drive. Then they pick up those other skills later. You’ll be trained by the best & supervised for the first few months. You’re not thrown into the deep end and expected to swim! The FAs are a fantastic group. And they actually get to interact with our passengers a lot more than the pilots. That can be fun (and challenging) and it definitely can make or break the pax attitude towards the experience (for which they pay a lot of $’s !). I hope some of this helps, and that I’ve portrayed everything in a positive light. I’m not allowed to give any specific details of NetJets operations, or discuss their passengers (NDA). So what I’ve outlined applies to private jet services in general, and can be found online from other public sources. Also: There’s a video on RUclips with more details. Search for NetJets Flight Attendant Job Requirements (or something similar). Good luck!
@@rbeard7580 I have years of hospitality experience , I am bilingual , I know how to work in a fast pace environment , i have bartending knowledge and I am a catering specialist in my current job , how you mentioned the CFA job is about the “V.I.P “ service . And I am ready to polish my skills in that field . I know for sure I can do an amazing performance in that position . Thanks for your reply I highly appreciate it your detailed description and tips . Hopefully my next comment is to let you know they hire me ! Have a good evening
Coming from a regional, an acquaintance was only too happy to fly for NetJets. Within two years, he's already a captain. He receives the best benefits a pilot can ask for - first class travel, accommodations and other high-valued perks - with usually a 7 days on, 7 dasy off schedule. He loves the challenge and the full support from the NetJets team especially if he gets fatigued - they are top notch management. But best of luck for those NetJets pilots that seek higher wages - I'm not a pilot so I cannot put myself in your place, but I understand why you may have grievances. I tell my NetJets pilot friend - keep your job - there's no other pilot position like it in the world. I come from a Part 121 airline background so there's some verification here.
Thanks, NJASAP, for such tireless work on behalf of NJA pilots and their families!

Good luck. But your description of the flying is exactly why I’m staying 121.
I. Am. DYING. To join you guys. 1300 hours to go.
You want to be over worked and under paid?

It seems only super positive comments are allowed here, interesting.
Well, let’s see…….long periods away from family, long, taxing days, what’s not to like?
