All of Jet2 recruitment is graded, interview, group exercise, sim etc. You come out with a score that’s a yes or no to be put in a pile of maybes. If you haven’t worked that out then it’s a cold, harsh truth. Then the recruitment team have a quota to fill after a meeting possibly each month depending upon demand and supply. When the next course comes up they contact the top candidates(on that day) with start dates. If on that day you are not in the chosen few then so be it. If you have got through with a lower grade then unless they need you, there won’t be a call. Maybe you don’t understand or wish not to but you go to this selection against all the others that do until the offers go out. A ‘ yes’ is only a yes you have passed selection. In many jobs several candidates are suitable. In business the ones that get the jobs are the right fix on the right day. You may write back and say it’s not fair. If you think that is the answer it’s quite simple, we just up the pass mark. That way you will be told you are not good enough earlier. All recruiters work this way, demand and supply guys. Even the military work this way. Each candidate is graded. Sure on one day you get first choice pilot as the grades required are low due to an increase in activities that threaten our land, or a change of governments. Give it a few years later when we are all eating cardboard and he/she/it pronouns are normal you will need to be a NASA top recruit to fly an ATR to Jersey and back.
