E-mail
Hi, I received an e-mail yesterday from someone working for LH I think. He sent me a prep test for Air Mauritius Pilot program stage 1. He also said that we will receive a letter shortly from Air Mauritius.

We applied for Abinitio- no previous flying experience. We got a first mail along with some software for practice for the upcoming tests on 4 Nov. Then some of us got their date for their test from Air Mauritius. I haven't got any mail from Air Mauritius yet regarding the date of my test. That's the story so far. What about you?

cadet assessment
Got a mail yesterday from DLR , the selection will take place from the 18 to the 29 Nov.(CBT on one day and group assessment on the next). Muzzamil,you should have received an e-mail from air mauritius by now if you got the DLR mail on the 4th.

yeah but air mauritius mail did said the interview was to be advised.(Thought those who were to be successful in the CBT and the Group Assmnt would be interviewed.) Don't know if its a communication problem between the DLR and MK. Hope we are not interviewed on the same day as the group assessment.
Grim , if you don't mind sharing what would be your dresscode ??? with the heat, I was planning up to a tie. No suit.

I think you misunderstood the mail guys. It says day one will be computerised tests and day two will Group assessment. The interview will come afterwards, they will inform you if you passed the first two stages. If so, you will be invited to attend the interview in Germany in beginning of December. *Interview will not be carried out in Mauritius*

DLR mail did said those passing the three stages would go to Germany.No interview was inferred in Germany. And even though i have doubts, since we would be assessed for a basic simulator tests which any computer can do and that too would be most probably the MIC test.

All the best guys...
But Keep in mind that you will be a bunch of probably 300 people for the first assessment, since no real prerequisite is required for the ab-inition program.
I remembered in 2003 & 2005 there were around 300 in first stage and approximately 30 in the next one. So you better be prepared, you guys will suffer!!
Once again, Good Luck!

I wonder if a chnage in DFO will resolve all these pilot recruitment issues? Isn't that since he took office that all pilot issues both to local an expat pilots have started? Those who know MK for long would know it better.
Think again. Find the root of the problem.

Good evening everybody. I would really like if you guys would come together to share ideas about the current selection exercise and progress. Everyone who applied could share us their educational background and experience that mk liked in each respective cvs applying to both selected and non selected so that we can get an idea what to better themselves on for a future recruitment.
Thanks and good luck everyone.

Hello airlinedream
That is a good idea. I would like to bring to the attention of all wannabe's that something is smelling fishy with this selection exercise
. There are many suitably qualified people ( technical degree holders / commercial aviation grads) out there who have not (yet?) received any invitation for the selection process...
Are there other wannabees like me, who think that they should have received their invitation for the DLR but who have not received anything upto now??

Applied for both 2003 and 2005 selections. Made it to the final interview each time. But like many wasn't hired due to some obscure reasons.
I've seen guys (and gals) being successful in the selection, sent to TO's but couldnt eventually trained as a pilot due to many reasons, like medical issues (yeah some had some chronic health probs which MK couldnt spot during their medicals in Mauritius) and others, issues with multitasking and vertigo. I've seen interviews being postponed as the son of a now former PS missed his plane. And of course the guy was selected. I'm sure the guy is a very good pilot but still there are many others who have the same potential but are not being given their chance.
I eventually financed my own training and managed to complete it successfully coz it was my dream to fly. MK did advertise for CPL holders in 2010, i applied but the whole selection process was such a mess (as usual) that ICAC was called to investigate....the rest is history.
And of course i can no longer apply as there is an age limit for CPL holders
For all you guys who are not aware, MK is under the control of the dark side of the force.
Good Luck!
