Aerofoil is correct. The only ( very limited number) cadet entry pilots this time round have been sourced from candidates with the requisite qualifications already working within the group in other roles. This is as a result of the agreement reached between the Company and our Company Council specifically precluding the use of cadets put forward by CTC, and directing the money in "agency fees" previously paid to CTC to the cadets instead in improved contracts.
As to what criteria the Company are applying in order to arrive at a list of interviewees from the many hundreds of applications, I am not privy to that.
Update:
Just been informed that over 400 applications for less than 20 posts for type rated applicants. Interviews scheduled for mid to late November for a join date in February.
