(not always in this order)
*psychometric test done by this company
http://www.shl.com/SHL/en-int/
example:
.;/? = .,/? or ,./? or .:/? or .;/?
like this and then say 100 of them to be completed in 4 minutes.
you will not be able to complete them all, but that's on purpose.
its to be completed in pencil i.o. black ink so they can change it afterwards!!
also a tekst and then questions with answer yes,no, cannot say...
Complete bull****, nothing to do with aviation , just there as an excuse to fill the pockets of these recruiting people.
*interview
done by 2 other pocketfillers
What was the most terrible moment in your life and how did you get through it?
What is your strongest point , weakest?
Describe your career till now
etc etc etc for an hour and a half.
Again nothing to do with aviation.
*sort of flightplanning
flight from A to B via C,D,E. tech problem in flt, what's your plan to continue to B , taken into account opening hours/notams in ABCDE , ramadan period (feeding times Px) , and the famous incident between a local male CC chief and an expat female CC.
(guess they ask it their trainees because they don't know it either)
1 hour time, 30min to read the task, 30 to solve it or not.
*group discussion
room... table... 4 chairs... together with 3 other candidates.
Read a booklet with info, then decide what you will do and why.
play the leader who consults his teammembers. You will be monitored by 3 to 4 other pocketfillers, very nice
That's it. No sim check. Hard to believe that you did all this efforts to fullfill all requirements to become commercial pilot and that airlines invent something else extra, not required by any law to hire/not hire you? Welcome in the reqruiting world 2005.
