Good luck all. This industry is competitive - if unsuccessful, try and find a way to get there. After all, resilience is the key!
Exactly this.
It will be an anxious time for the TUI recruitment team too. It's the first time they are running this and no doubt the pressure will be on for them to get 30 candidates for the company. The last thing they want is to come to the end of the process and not have 30 people they want to hire. Or even worse - have guys dropping out of the course costing the company big £. Careers will be relying on this programme running smoothly and getting 30 people from zero to flying 737s within 2 years. Some people can just about get from zero to flying a Cessna in 2 years.
My guess is the waiting list will be used for scenarios such as not enough selected after the assessment days, so they hold another. Similar for the final stage in the flight simulator. Or, 30 are picked and for whatever reason some can't progess due to something like not being able to get a Class 1 medical.
Or - they will create a waiting list and from that, start picking people to invite to assessment days.
Can at least be sure they are reading this thread and having a laugh!
