Sure, Its a 2-days assessement. It was pretty chill as long you are prepared well you will be fine.
Regarding Compass and Psychometric test, not hard at all just prepare for it from Latest PilotJobs website, Purchase the Emirates assessment package Do all the tests there couple times and you will be ready.
Regarding the Simulator check: same as this, you don't need to be an expert in B737, if you did MCC, just do like what you did there like Callouts and monitoring, etc.. so prepare well and be ready
Simulator Assessment Brief (PowerPoint), as sent prior by email. This gives
chance for questions on the Simulator assessment to be answered.
Draw is made to divide everyone into groups of 2, if you are not in the first
group then you’ll have to wait in the pilot lounge and about 1 hour and 45
mins after first group started you can head to the Sim location and wait.
Simulator profile:
o Takeoff Off from OOMS Rwy 08L, winds 353/13 knots, 500ft OVC
1000M visibility.
No FD but Auto Throttles/Thrust allowed(Discretion of the
Instructor)
Flaps 15 Takeoff
FMC and over head panel set by the Instructor
o Intercept Radial 090 outbound from MCT VOR.
If told to intercept radial inbound, then set the reciprocal!
o Climb at 250 KIAS and 1000ft/m.
o Descend at 250 KIAS and 1000ft/m
o Steep Turns, 180 degrees left and then level and 180 degrees right
at 45 AOB.
o AutoPilot engaged for ILS brief.
ILS 08L manually flown with FD available: FOLLOW the FD.
o Visual Circuit with CAVOK weather
1600 feet Flap 5 Takeoff and keeping same flaps till gear
goes down.
Instructor can allow right circuit if desired.
Notes/Tips:
Memorize all callouts
Always trim the aircraft, careful not to run the pitch trim too long!
Small Power lever movements
Make all your briefs as thorough as possible.
You will make mistakes, that’s okay, as long as you show improvement in the simulator and
learning!
I can confirm this is 95% exactly what I got when I did my assessment. One advise is don't over controll the aircraft make only small changes. They are very lenient and guide you a lot but if you make lots of basic mistakes then you might fail, yes there are many guys failed the assessment. For example if you are high on glideslope, say you are correcting and do the corrections also if struggling to land on short final you can go around which is a good decision.
Most importantly accept your mistakes dont argue or be defensive with the examiner. They are very nice people and want you to pass so show good attitude and show them you came prepared and want to pass.
