Hello, I did my interview on January 23 at Stansted and still I have no answer. I don´t know if it's good or bad sign. I begin to despair... I finished my interview happy.
There is someone who also did the interview that day?
You know if it is normal for both late?

Thanks for your help and happy flights!

I can only agree 100% with Mr Boomabastic...

@alwaysflying87
I also did the interview on January 23 and haven't heard anything.
From what I have seen on previous posts it is normal to wait over a month for a response.
We should hear something soon. Best of luck!

G-GHUU
nice to hear from you!
I hope that you too good luck.
We are in contact. When I know something, I write you.
I don´t know what happened with the other four guys, and you?

Thanks!!

Hey guys!

Strange you didnt hear back yet, i know a guy who did it on the 29th I believe.. He heard positive news last friday. I think bad news travels faster though so you should be ok.. But still strange they dont do first guys first.. :/ did u guys get ANY feedback on the day itself? Goodluck

Hi guys.
I received an email from Ryanair in which I say that I am not fit: (
I do not understand, my evaluation was very good. I think there are too many applicants for few positions.
Lucky for the other

I-AINC

ValePilot, stay CALM.

I sent my application via CAE website on the 1st August 2009, and I've been called for an interview on the 2nd of December 2010.

So....for the moment, go fishing.

Boeing007

Can someone please elaborate, does someone has to meet a certain standard for being accepted in to Ryanair? Or is there a serious competition in which candidates are also compared after the interview and the best of those picked? (Hence it takes so long...)

Youngaviator254

Obviously you have to meet a certain standard otherwise what would be the point of an assessment?.....Been waiting a month on wednesday! not sure what the hold up is.

fulminn

when they do the assessment they get all the guys above a certain standard, i think

Boeing007

Well, that's what I thought and that's what they say at Ryanair.
What I mean is, Ryanair has a standard. Everyone that goes to the assesment and reaches or exceeds that standard will be hired, everyone that doesnt gets the no thanks email. It's like that right?? Since it takes so long for assesment results I was wondering, maybe they will compare all candidates and than choose their pick...?
Any info is appreciated...

Mr Boombastick

Spoke to a mate of mines who's cousin's mate knows a bloke who works in tesco who knows another bloke who's brother did the assessment in 2007 and apparently they only take people who can see out of both eyes and have a hole in their arse - apparently they check on the assessment.

Seriously fellas....

G-CHUU

Like alwaysflying87 I also received bad news from Ryanair yesterday.
As you can see from previous posts they don't give feedback so I can't pass on any advice about their standards... I thought it went well but so does everyone on PPRuNe!

guys i have been with fr for the past 2.5 years, when i did my assessment, i felt they focused a lot on the sim so whatever you guys do go in to a sim and practice even if its jus a fixed base 737. practice steep turns climbing turns descending general handling, raw data etc and use your partner they want to see team work not a hot shot, when you get a non normal its essential you work together, use a problem solving acronym and take your time.
and they don't compare you to other guys at the assesmment, if you meet the standard you'll get it, all the guys that were on the selection day with me got through good luck!!!

guys, I understand your concerns, but let me tell you.

things have changed within ryanair, the need for FO´s are not that high, and yes, they are closing their recruitment 1. april, but but but....

things are starting to move, everything isn't that dark as some make it to be, a lot of people in here are talking about how the situation is, and they are completely wrong, and a lot of the guys doesn't have any insight, some do, but a lot don't.

almost 35 captains have left during the last two months, and it is projected that about 60 more captains are leaving during the next couple of months.

and they are leaving for emirates, qatar, air china and korean airplanes.
they have to start upgrading some of their fo's, and at the same time a lot of the FO's who have reached 1500 hours are leaving for norwegian and others.

and ryanair will like others open their recruitment again during the summer.


and for you guys who haven't gotten a reply yet, i know the wait is agony, and it used to be a myth that the longer you wait the better it was, but it has been in a lot of cases that if you are unsuccessful, you will get a rather quick reply, if not, it might be a indication that you are being taken into consideration.

and i can assure you future guys, don't put everything on the sim, cause in the end, they will teach you to fly, they are looking for 3 thing CRM, CRM, CRM...

happy hunting, i cross my fingers for you guys, and i hope the best for all of you.

gossetti

will they close the recruitmet or just the application portal?

ValePilot

Application portal. See the website

Valepilot (& I-AINC for comparison I guess), I first applied in January 2009 and was called to interview 3 YEARS later and during that time kept updating the CAE profile. Met others at the interview who complained that they had to wait 2 months after finishing in Oxford to get called. Don't expect anything instantly in this industry but stay optimistic.
