Assessment Dublin
Good evening,
I will write down there my experience.
Phone interview:
-medical expiry date
-mep/ir exam date and expiry date
-cpl exam date and expiry date
-total flight hours
-"why should we hire you?"
Then they invited me for the assessment in Dublin-Simtech on 8th of June.
Assessment day:
I arrived just 45 minutes earlier, then the assessor invited us for the briefing. He divided us into 4 crews (2 people each crew): one person who did the MCC on 737 sim and one who did on a general fntp simulator.
I was the first together with my college.
I started to fly as PF:
-WAL2N SID briefed, then during the initial part of the sid he started with vectors together with speed change.
-radar vectors for the ILS NDB DME Rwy 27 in EMA.
-no emergency situation.
Same things for my partner, except he had an emergency situation with FIRE IN TOILET. Then full ALTERNATIVE PROCEDURE ILS NDB DME.
10 minutes later I was invited for the interview with the HR and the same assessor I had for the simulator.
HR question:
-introduce yourself
-why Ryanair?
-why should we hire you?
-what is important in the mcc course?
-why have you chosen your flight school?
-where do you usually fly from?
Tech question:
-we talked a litlle bit about glider and my gliding activity (he saw that I had the GPL)
-max 737-800 cieling
-seats on the 737-800
-swept wings adv and disadv
-why are there high lift devices on swept wings?
-how are flaps operated?what pressure?
9 days later they sent me the positive answer via email.
You will find very relaxed atmosphere and they will do everything possible to put at ease. I suggest, during the simulator, to perform all the standard briefing, to call for all the checklist and to interact with your sim partner.
Best regards and good luck all!!
