Hey guys,
i just came back from the cadet pilot interview, it was a breeze, and unless u r really arrogant and stupid theres no reason y 1 should not clear it.
first day there is a group session in which u have to make an atc tower and then a airport chart, certain parameters will be given ,which will change to put time based pressure, but its not impossible.
then next day is the BIG day with checking of documents and then the computer based exam, Aptitude tests, and memory test , all this in 3 hours, not much of a problem.
then a small essay to be written on any topic they give,
then comes the wait for the interview , panel is of 6 people, and basic questions, no rocket scientist type questions, so chill.
after that the tea party and u r told to go to the hotel and wait.
next day on the phone u will know if u r in or out.
if in then medical the following day , very normal medical, if u have been flying then u know the drill.
the basic training is 2 years to second officer, thena year or so till FO
money is not much, FO makes around 7000 Sin$ second officer 3-4000 $ cost of living is 4000 $ average, car is expensive, food cheap, transport good,life is not easy till u have some friends.
hope this helps,
Happy Landings .
