Billetos thanks, THIS is the kind of comments that should go with this post.
It seems your HR questions mirrored mine, especially the one about the captain not being fit to fly, and a very specific question about a very specific situation (the basketball one).
Fnlpilot during my assessment, most of the candidates did the Cut-E test between April and September 2020. Ryanair might have a ton of applications to sort out, so don't worry if yours take a while.
