Ah yes, assessment in BKK for non-rated pilots.. They are quite happy to invite people to attend their assessment in Bangkok for NokScoot at the end of this month, they want you to arrange time off work for it, they don't care about you having to book and pay for flights and accommodation while there, but what they don't bother telling you, unless pushed, is that this assessment will only go ahead if they sort out the issue of the Thai DCA not letting airlines employ non-rated foreign pilots in Thailand (as I think you mentioned before kwaiyai, maybe in the NokScoot thread).

I can't see the Thai DCA making an exception just for them! They claim to be working on a way round this and are trying to come up with some kind of solution. So, as it stands, if you are non-rated, currently they cannot employ you and they don't have anyway of overcoming this barrier as yet. Completely irresponsible of them to invite people to an assessment then!
