Yeah I like the way that they charge you £160 just to apply! What other industry would do that?!
I ended up forking out £500 to apply for the OAT TCX shceme. (200 in OATs pocket and 300 for class 1).
Others may flame me with the usual platitudes such as '..if you really want it you will put up with it....' etc etc but it
is unfair that FTOs charge for applications especially when one considers that the overall cost of the course is in the region of 60k. I know recruitment is expensive but other industries (with very similar recruitment/assesment prcesses) don't charge.
I can not afford to attend all these assesments especially as the chances of getting through are so minimal (6 places for Flybe).
