Assessment day

Hi guys,

Had my assessment yesterday was very relaxed atmosphere we started the day with a brief then we were all paired and some of us went in to sim and some to interview.

Sim,
East Midlands Sid but soon as we took off cancelled Sid and radar vectored ils to land. Bit of GH and tracking. Later he freezed the sim and asked our position.
No tricks literally took off and radar Vectored ils to land. HOWEVER IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE WHO YOU GET AS YOUR PARTNER IN THE SIM SO BE CAREFULL AND BRIEF WELL.

Interview,
HR question
Tell me about your self?
What can you give to Ryanair?
What qualities does a good captain have?
How would you deal with a bad tempered captain?
Why CTC?
who's paying for your training?
Are you aware that type rating is gonna be very challenging?
What are your weaknesses?
Where do you see your self in 5 years?
Did you apply to other airlines?

Tech,
Wind 300/10 runway 27 what's the cw?
What is v2?
Where is the screen height?
What is clear way?
What is MTOW of 737?
Maximum ceiling?
Can we fly at max ceiling?

Over all was a good experience but I don't think I got in. The sim let me down I'm not blaming anyone but if your partner doesn't call out your v speeds or basic things to help you and you happen to do everything your self it gets really difficult.

Make sure you check your MSA on the plate because while I was PF atc asked us to decend to 2000ft but MSA was 2500ft. That was the only trick he threw at us.

Good luck everyone!
