Great feedback here from everyone - thanks to all!
For anyone who applied recently through the CAE website and got the interview, did you fill out anything in the "Additional Info" section? I just put down a quick description of my personal profile and interest in Ryanair but not sure if it's better left blank.
And just to confirm, they get back to you later with a request for your CV, right? As far as I'm aware some time back it was a requirement to upload a CV right away during the CAE registration but to my surprise when I filled out the application at no point was a CV required!! That makes it a very level playing field...
Cheers!
