The airline Emirates is reviving up its recruitment efforts in Brussels to meet the strong surge in customer demand.
The airline will be holding two pilot recruitment sessions in the Belgian capital at the end of February, to recruit experienced commercial pilots.
The upcoming roadshow will be held on Sunday afternoon, 23 February between 1pm and 6pm and on Monday 24 February at 10am.
