Hey Street
Just got back from the selection in Innsbruck,
First phase:
English flight theory test. Get FAA CPL study guide and youll be fine, it pretty much based on the FAA CPL, well 90% ish.
Second Phase:
Psycometric testing (2 days, includes group discussion, one to one interview with Psycologist and computer based psycometric test)
The computer based test is pretty harsh, memory test, motor skills, reaction time, multitasking and concentration.
I bought Hesse Schrader, Test Training 2000.
I thought I was pretty well prepared and a good candidate, (Mechanical Engineering Backround), but wasnt called back for next phase....sob sob sob
Third Phase:
Sim check..Linz or Graz, (SID, Star, rad vectors, ILS, single needle approach etc.) Yes I think they use a multi engine sim now, but no engine faliures etc. so same as single
Fourth Phase
Interview with management and chief pilot
Fifth Stage
Medical
Apply and be prepared, they are apparently looking for 60 f/o's for the Fokker 100's.
Dont kid yourself, prepare as best you can, on the previous selection out of 100 people they only took 4, holy crap, fussy or what.
If you do f up you can apply again in 6 month.
Good luck
