RYANAIR St JAMES MANAGEMENT CABIN CREW TRAINING SCAM.....CONTRACT

StJames Management Services Ltd at Dunmow Road Bishops Sortford with Ryanair are recruiting students for cabin crew training in the UK and all over Europe..This is called RECRUITMENT for TERMINATION which no other airline in Europe operates...
What this company is doing is using the Internet to get students to join their cabin crew training courses for a fee of up to 3000 euro then passing them on to a company called Crewlink or Workforce International to work on ryanair aircraft.They ,Stjames Management Services
say, live the high life....dinner in Paris...Your new career travelling the world starts here!...How can you do this when ryanair have a 25 minute turn around of aircraft.The main reason why they St James Management Services are making students think (great life to be cabin crew) is to get money off you for the training course.Once you pass the course you are given a contract ,not by ryanair but Crewlink or Workforce International .You are given a new joiner allowance which is taken back off you once you are terminated.
St James Management Services say you have a 3 year contract with Crewlink or Workforce International with 12 months on probation...

St James Management Services will say you can get a Ryanair contract after 12 months,well this is a lie.Over 60% of these probation cabin crew will get terminated before the 12th month..Your last month salary is taken for charges....
StJames Management Services are recruitment scamming students,knowing in time these students get terminated.Ryanair take the Cabin Crew training not StJames Management Services.
IT IS SIMPLE TO UNDERSTAND.
How many students Ryanair  recruit from the Internet is how many students will get terminated.Training you to terminate you for training fee and your last month's salary.
We think in the past up to 300 a month could have been terminated by Ryanair.Ryanair aircraft flying without Ryanair paying Probationary Cabin Crew salary.
This recruitment company must be closed down for scamming our children.
YOU MUST INFORM ANYBODY WHO WOULD LIKE TO BE CABIN CREW TO STAY AWAY FROM THESE SCAMMERS.
How do they sleep at night.

JOHN SAY'S
The Word TERMINATE is used more than 15 times in your Crewlink or Workforce International contract,it is their favourite word...TERMINATE...
Thats how they are doing this scam.Young people and their parents are no looking at the contract because like most of us,we never think a big company like Ryanair would do a recruitment scam but they do.

Be safe from getting exploited by Ryanair.
Be safe from getting left in a foreign land after termination by Ryanair.
Be safe from having your young working life wrecked for profit by Ryanair.
To be safe you must stay away from Ryanair....
