Jet Airways 737 Type Rated exam 2013

[cyrilroy21]

I am starting this thread for everyone who got called for the Feb 17th 737 rated exam to discuss the exam questions , assessments , interview , sim checks etc

Lets leave the trainee first officer thread to discuss their issues .

Good luck everyone :ok:

[cyrilroy21]

I asked a friend of mine who was inducted a type rated candidate back in Dec 2010 / Jan 2011

And this is what he had to say

Basic 737 tech. They have introduced GD for type rated induction. CPL questions can't be predicted. Depends on the paper set

[cynicalczar2001]

i got the mail. started off with CBT and FCOM. i reckon 10 days is good time to brush up and start recollectin things!:ok:

[nevergiveup27]

In the email it hasn't been mentioned if the results will be declared on the same day or not. Assuming they do declare it the same day, do the further assessments happen the very next day or would it happen sometime later?

[nevergiveup27]

Guys I had a word with one of my Friends who work at Jet, There will be only written examination on 17th Feb & people who clear the examination will be called later at a particular date for the further assessments/Interview.

Also if anybody is appearing for the exam who lives in Delhi and would like to share hotel accommodation in Mumbai for 1 day & study together please let me know. My plan would be to arrive on 16th afternoon and depart back to Delhi on 17th evening.
Please PM if interested. Thanks & best of luck to everybody. :ok:

Anybody who appeared last yr in writtens n cudnt clear, receive a call again for written on 17th? Or is it just for fresh TR applicants??

[cyrilroy21]

Jet Airways usually calls candidates again even if in the past they failed a certain part of the assessment process .

In the Jan 2011 recruitment for non type rated they called those who failed the GD in 2010 to come directly to the GD round again

[cynicalczar2001]

so theyv called the non type rated batch of pilots who failed the GD the last time, to the GD this time? how do u know that>? n im presumin that u kno when the GD is then?

[cyrilroy21]

@cynicalczar2001

I was referring to the Non type rated exams conducted in 2010 and 2011

Those who failed the GD round in 2010 were called in 2011 for the GD round directly which already took place in August 2011

when was this vacancy out

[avicon]

This is slightly off topic, but does anyone know the fleet type for upcoming Air Kerala. (or is it Kerala Air).

I heard from one person they will bring in six 737NG aircraft to start with and intent to expand with further 737's.

[cyrilroy21]

Avicon

Air Kerala is still in project phase . They have not even applied to the Ministry for an NOC nor have they mobilised the minimum funds needed to start the airline

The bone of contention is that a scheduled airline needs 5 years and 20 aircraft in order to fly abroad which is the minimum as required by MoCA

Air Kerala wants this clause removed just like the govt did for Air India express . They have asked the Ministry to remove it but as of this writing I dont think that has been approved or rejected .

It still a long long time before any movement happens with Air Kerala

[skycalling]

I had not cleared the written exam last year and got a call this time..

[dg737]

@sky - did they ask performance and FMC QUEST last year....little help will be appreciated

[skycalling]

no they did not ask any performance or fmc questions... they focussed more on other vol 2 chapters n qrh...

[tolip111111]

How was the exam guys? Inputs will be appreciated..

[nevergiveup27]

The written exam was surprisingly very easy compared to the Jet's standard. Now the question arises as to what would they set their cut off for passing, as quite majority of people could have scored above 80%?

[Johny Boy]

Rumour is that Jet is going to take 15-20 pilots from them and may be keep some more in pool of rated pilots for future.
Some more accurate info will be appreciated

[Keen84]

Last year they sent the results out on the same day by evening! And the call letters after 3 days for the Assessment centre rounds to be held after 7days from the call.

Anybody hear anything on results?

[SuperflyTNT]

How many sat for the exam ?

[nash737_800]

Hi, all

Did any one get result yet?

What do you all think the pass percentage will be???

[nevergiveup27]

According to "UPWA" around 176 applicants appeared for the written exam!

[tolip111111]

The results have been declared. Any info on how many cleared and what the next process is?

[avicon]

When was the exam conducted last year. Just to know how often they conduct written for the Type Rated candidates.

[Johny Boy]

182 including few with hours on type.

[Keen84]

Whts that figure??? 182?? Wasn't this exam only for type rated's? Or did they also conduct for ab initios?

I too heard that around 176 candidates appeared for writtens.
How many passed written is a difficult thing to know until the assessment centre happens.
Anyone get anything from thm yet?

[skycalling]

No news from them yet about the assessment centre round... But the tentative date is around 2nd March...

[rockin.skull]

Considering this trend of conducting group discussions for selection, Does anyone know any classes to prep for group discussions specifically for aviators?

Now before i get flamed by our purist friends saying that you dont need training for group discussion etc etc...I want to tell you that i have given Gd's twice and i have not yet managed to clear.

So I am looking for a way to improve myself, and if anyone can help, then please do so, Any kind of information, Phone number, Names, Contacts will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Happy landings.

You can try MK Singh.

I am not sure how good he is but I know people who took his classes for the GD round of Jet Trainee FO (2011) recruitment. They did pass the round.

[rockin.skull]

[Keen84]

Anyone get calls for Assessment Centre yet????

[nevergiveup27]

They did sent out the invites for the Assessment Center on 21st February.

Tentative dates are 2nd, 3rd,4th & maybe even 5th March for the above mentioned.

[rockin.skull]

Did anyone who had given appeared for the assessment centre last year get the call?

[nevergiveup27]

The applicants who didn't clear last time are invited to sit in the Assessment Center this time.

[skycalling]

People who didnt clear the assessment centre round last year were not called for it this time.

Guys i want to know how long after the assessment centre round do the interviews n sim checks happen?

[pkboeing]

Heard that people were called on 1st march for the personal assessment centre program.is it true?

[GONG]

hey guys how was the GD yesterday ?Any useful inputs would be appreciated !

[cyrilroy21]

I hear the GD results are out for those that had the GD on March 2 and 3 . interviews to start from the 6th....

[avicon]

Any idea how many cleared the GD.

[pkboeing]

Any news that whether those candidates who failed in the interview or the sim this time 2013 will be called again or not as last year candidates are being called..Any news would be highly appreciated...

[ashokbhatt11]

Hey guys i was unable to clear PI for the current 737 type rated batch and this was my first interview with jet. Candidates who failed written and GD were told to appear for ab-initio written but no mail for candidates who failed PI and Sim. Any update on this would be great help? thanks.

[cyrilroy21]

Nice to know that Jet Airways is giving a chance to all those candidates who could not pass the various stages

Candidates who could not clear the interview have been called and I believe are done with their re interviews

Candidates who could not clear the Sim checks are being given another chance and Sim Checks are going on for 1st week of September

Candidates who could not clear the GD have been sent emails today asking to come for GD again

Looks like Jet Airways needs a lot of pilots...

[pkboeing]

Does anybody has any information regarding recruitment of fresh type rated for jet airways.i mean when is jet going to conduct fresh examination for type rated guys...pls share..

[framer]

What is the pay like if you do get through?
