This forum helped me a lot to get job at Ryanair,so I will leave my feedback.
May 6,I sent application.
May 7,got invitation for online assessment.
May 10,I did online assessment
May 13,got positive email.
May 14,got call from CAE.
May 28, interview+sim.

We started at 08:00 at Ryanair head office in Dublin.
1.Briefing about interview,sim.
2.We got divided in 4 pairs,737 MCc+non 737 MCC.
3.I was last to go for interview and sim,we waited almost 8 hours.
4.Interview questions.Why so many retakes at ATPL Theory (I got 5 retakes in total),What is thunderstorm,what is cold front,why thunderstorm is dangerous to aircraft,started to ask questions about my old aircrafts,c152,c172,c182,pa28,asked about difference between carb and injection,do we need to use carb heat today(it was +14 outside),at what alt we can expect freezing level,explain how hydraulic system works.HR questions,why Ryanair,why decided become a pilot,why not AirBaltic(my local airline),why Sky4u(MCC course),why not APS MCC,tell about my training, asked me,do I have any questions.
5.Sim, departure from liverpule SID, runway 27, after SID,climb,turns,decent, intercept VOR,ATC call,severe thunderstorm at London, airport closed,dodar,we decided go back,nits,radar vectors,ILS approach.Same for second pilot.
From 8 guys,3 got job.
Few advice,don't don't APS MCC,we had 2 guys with it, both failed.
Don't stress at interview and sim, otherwise you not gona get possitive result.
