Question : is it good that they've invited me, or do they invite most applicants?
Is it easy jet that have said they want me to come or ctc?
Has anyone else applied and got to this stage?
What can I expect?
Thy want £300 just for me to go to the assesment, I've never paid for a job interview before. Seems ridiculous.
You're right it's ridiculous to be paying for assessments, but with us lot they can get away with anything and somehow still have us queuing down the road and around the corner.
To answer a few of your questions:
1 - If you meet the education requirements and write reasonably good essay questions, CTC will invite you. It certainly isn't anything special if that's what you're asking.
2 - CTC have invited you. EasyJet don't see your application until interview stage where they have the final say. The first stages are filtering out those who they think will be of interest to easyjet.
3 - You can expect a basic maths test (currencg conversion, calculations with fractions and decimals and basic algebra). Then an aptitude test with flight directors etc. If you have a PPL this really shouldn't be of any challenge.
Best of luck
