Which school?
Hi Guys/ Gals,
For those of you who have been successful would you mind stating which school you trained at. I'm studying for my ATPLs as we speak so looking at schools for next summer.

Hi Joseph!
I got the call pretty quick, I applied 3 weeks ago on CAE website.
My backround: I'm 20 years old from sweden, I studied my ATPL at SPU in sweden, then ME/IR/CPL at Diamond Flight Academy Scandinavia and MCC at CAE Stockholm. I'm still waiting for the next call with a date to the assessment day, but at least they told me I passed the first telephone interview and the will get back shortly

I passed the phone interview yesterday and today got the call to confirm assessment in Dublin on Tuesday 4rd November.
Anyone else?
What we have to do after the sim and personal interview? We have to pay the full 737 Type Rating or is there any possibility to pay the TR with a reduced salary or something like this?
Thank you guys!

Hello C!
I'm glad you made it! We were on the same MCC course! The guy from Crete! No phone call yet despite a positive feedback from CAE MCC. I just hope that Ryanair is indeed an equal opportunity employer and will not discriminate me for my age (38) ;-)
Well done again and wish you to make it to the Boeing 737 NG cockpit soon!
Can't wait to get a chance!
All the best!

They called me a while ago and gave me an assessment date on 5/11 in Dublin!
I will be in DUB from 3/11. Would be nice to meet up somewhere to grab a dinner and a beer and get to know each other.

Ryanair is recruiting! - Pilot Flight Training School UK - FTA
Is this number reasonable?
Whilst Ryanair interviews and assesses around 1000 pilots per annum, only 48% make it through the selection process.

Got a call on wednesday from CAE about my application (i guess the phone interview?) but as bad luck always strikes me, I was in a meeting at that moment and couldn't answer the phone (i didn't know who was calling at that time either)
They left a message saying that there was no need to call them back, that they would get in touch with me the next day.
However I'm yet to receive a call and it's friday afternoon.
Should I just wait or try and give them a call?

Hi everybody,
I had my assessment in Dublin the 16 october and got a positive reply today.
So I've read a lot of feedback and I've to say that it's exactly like the others described it.
For the interview, questions about myself, about my instructors, my MCC, why RYR, they asked me which bases i would prefer, and for the technical was just about what is the PFD, MCP, and the FMA. Thats it.
For the sim it was Dublin Liffy 4A departure climb 4000 ft, then some NDB evolutions, they asked us where are we, which QDM, and then we had an emergency a bomb when i was PF and a fire when i was PM, then we were cleared for ILS 28 in DUB and were told that the GS might have some issues, so we check with the DME distance if we were on slope and at the end GS was working perfectly.
So if I had any advice, keep cool, smile, and relax they are no tricks, they are really funny they joked, really a good moment.
That's it good luck to everybody !!

I got an email now saying congratulations I passed the assessment, so that's nice.
I was given a choice of 4 different type rating start dates in that email, and to list my order of preference.
Does anyone know how long it usually takes to get your course date confirmed after you send your order of preference?
