Second assigment in this test is folding the cube

http://natscareers.co.uk/docs/NATS_P...e_Leaflet2.pdf

I sent in my applications mid-January and was asked pretty much immediately to send in the papers on my eye exam. I was however told that I would have to wait until around april-may for the actual examinations. In late February they sent me an e-mail along with a date, so I'm going over there in May to test my luck. It seems strange that several of you guys haven't heard anything from them. The times I've sent e-mails to them they've pretty much responded immediately.

Tnx! Any plus info would be of course highly appreciated! Good luck to all, again!

@oddbob

wonder why i didn't get my date yet, they only sent email that phase 1 FEAST are in May, that was end of February

I'm assuming you sent them all the required documents. Have you tried contacting them by telephone?

no, cause on their site it says that they will let us know the exact date at least 2 weeks before, so i just assumed i will get my date later

well, this is last mail i got from them:

Hello !
 

Hello to everyone. I got an e mail long time ago saying that if I could be invited for PHASE 1, I would be receiving an e mail shortly. Unfortunately, PHASE 1 was cancelled and now I see WE ARE ALL waiting for PHASE 1 which is due for MAY. I sent another e mail to see if there were any news, and they told me that PHASE 1 is only 1 day, so now I think that we all have to be patient, because not everybody will be able to attend PHASE 1 on May.
If anybody has any news, post them
Cheers !

That was what I were afraid of. Maybe there isn't enought room on september training course.

Hello all again. Yeap, exactly that Kilua, I don't think we can meet during May (I mean everybody who is waiting for Phase 1). Talking to a person I know who went there told me that HE WAS called from Maastricht, so make sure that you have your mobile or telephone operative at all times if you can, because the MIRACLE call could be at any time!
Cheers!

As far as I know, there is no available position in the September course, just in the 2011 January one. The September course was already filled up when we were in Maastricht in January.

Hello Davidgkovacs. I don't mind training course. I still wait for a date to attend PHASE 1. Cheers !

i also have to wait for phase 1 and acctually 2011 courses are a bit more convenient for me as i can pass all remaining exams at uni :)

to Matichk, hi there, when did you apply and when did you receive the "wait for a date to attend to phase 1" email ?

i applied at beggining of February and got my "wait for phase 1" mail on 19th February, no word from them since than

Well, I applied during december, and got an email to wait. Then I sent another e mail and I got a reply stating to wait for a date to attend phase 1. I only know now that there is a waiting list to attend for PHASE 1 during MAY. One thing is for sure, phase 1 is only for 1 day.
Cheers.

wow, thats a long wait and i thought i'm waiting for a long time :D

thank you for the answer:O

i read wrong or does a member from this forum have allready an exact date for may?
i'm waiting still for a date but i'm starting to get fed up of waiting....:ugh:

All these people with the 'wait for a date' messages, have you all had an email from Eurocontrol to send in an eye exam certificate?

I take it that the actual applications go through a screening process itself, thus leaving a few without an invitation to EC. A pre-phase 1, so to speak. Although the least they could do is to send people e-mails telling them they were not selected to participate in phase 1.

i think they do send emails if you're not invited to phase 1, but if they don't, than they wouldn't say that you will get your date for phase 1 tests :)

hello to all !
to lessthanste, yes, at least me, I had sent my full application form + eye check. After all this procedure, they sent me an email stating we have now receive your full application. Now WAIT FOR A DATE TO ATTEND PHASE 1. So that is, they do the initial screening of your "profile", and then they see eye checks. Then they send you this email, providing a WAIT or a DATE.
Cheers!

For those wondering how the phase 1 cube test looks like, here is a spy pic taken from the actual test.

Shhhhhh :cool:

:D maybe some will say im stupid, but i dont really understand whats the deal on this cube test?(from the picture above) What should you resolve? If someone knows this, can someone answer me please...
P.S. Thank's allot wittdo!

Which one of those cubes ( A, B or C) is possible from the net above?

As for the application question i had, i just sent an email to the recruitment people, and got an out of office reply, he'll be back on the 12th apparently (and hence this may explain the lack of responce recently!)

P.S. The answer is C, i think :suspect:

Regarding Wittdo's post, are there any online games/websites/books/cd's that are available to practice cube puzzles?

Hello ! Jeeeeeezzzz.... such a spy pic !!!!!!! Thank you very much for this one !!!! regarding software... there are some cd's that are available to buy in internet to prepare for FEAST exam, although they cost 70 € or something similar. As soon as I remember the website, I will post it
Cheers

The website is skytest, however, i dont think its wise to prepare with that kind of software.

acctually it's A :)

this is ATC test i found on DFS site: Lotsentest

games are pretty fun and easy to do :)

Matichk you are correct. The answer is indeed A.

Answer is none.
No wonder the cube test is a part that most of the people find hard in the Feast part 1.

So which is it, i still think its C (to be fair, its a tricky one!)

You can tell its not B straight away, there are no arrowheads touching each other as in the net.

haha
draw it and fold it, you'll see it's A :)

Yeah its A, if you think its C (none) and you have the feast test coming up, I would be practicing if I were you!!

Hmmm looking at it again i have now realised that yes, it is A :O

anyone here with suggestions on how to train that cube thingy :)

hello my name's Oscar and that's my first post.

I'm 20 (since march) and i'd like to join EC. If I do the exams before the 1st oct I'll have 3 chances, that's why I wanted to know how much time is required to do the entire selection process, since you send the email til you end (if selected).

Thanks for all!!

Hey all!

Matichk and Irs33 , well done! you found the correct answer (or is it?).
Let's see now if under pressure (time pressure that is) , you are still SOOO good.

Precisely the attitude that will get you out.:D

yea, thats why i would like to practice that a bit :)

LevelD

2 things...
1st, what i said was friendly advise to the people to practice if they found the cubes difficult, you seem to have taken it as some arrogant statement of my boasting about how good I am!! Which is not the case!

2nd, I have already passed the whole selection process including the cube tests.
