Hi feefee, well done on passing and good luck :) salary is around £635 depending on the destination and the role you applied for, there's also commission on the excursions/extras you sell I averaged 200-300 quid a month sometimes less.. about £200 Is taken off your salary for the accommodation but it's usually quite a good deal I'd recommend staying in the accommodation they offer it can be either hotel (which is amazing) or an apartment, on the 10 day training course I believe you pay a bond? But then that's reimbursed at the end of your first season I think.. apart from that I believe all travel is paid for 😁 I did 6 months in Fuerteventura and it was amazing and going out to Menorca In April

Hi all,
I was repping in 2014 with Thomas Cook and I absolutely loved every minute! I declined my placement of Ibiza for summer 2015 due to a very close family member getting ill and passing away. I am ready to return and really excited, I couldn't think of a better company to work for! The assessment day worries me a lot. Although i've managed to pass before, I'm really worried it may have changed alot since 2014 but not by your description. Can anyone let me know what is in the maths tests? Glad to hear you went casual and still smashed it! Congratulations! B x

Hi B
the maths test was easy, it's all simple adding, subtraction and working out conversion rate. I was super worried about it but I passed and I'm not too good at maths! It's all questions like "you have to sell a trip for €50, you sell 2 on Monday, 3 Tues, 1 weds how much money have you made" kinda thing. Hope this helps! |

When does the 10 day overseas training take place as I'm at uni at the moment so taking that long off in term time will be tricky
