Documents translation
Regarding the documents translation (diplomas for ex) I got a translation from a professional translator and it worked just fine, in my case it was from French to English. So it seems you don't necessarily have to do a legalized/certified/official copy.
Hope this helps.

In my case I received an email asking for my cv after one month I registered in CAE website, so it was pretty fast comparing with others. I replied to the e-mail on the 18th of January and until now nothing. I know that some people sent the CV and after a few days they got a call so I don't think there is a specific rule, some they take longer, others they take less time. The only thing we can do now it's study. We all want the same, try to be optimistic, the call will come 
Good luck!

Do you guys know if you can re-apply after having failed the first assessment? I mean, since they have changed the data base in August 2015.
Currently, you can not create a new account because your information is already in the system. You just can update it.
However, i dont know if they will take into account this application in the future anymore.

payment
hey guys, I am solving a problem with payment of my fee. The payment was authorized - however the page with confirmation did not appear due to any server error. So i was not provided with the receipt or a transaction code. I send this to the lady from CAE and hope she can help me. Any advise?

12 Feb
Anyone has the assessment on the 12 of Feb?
Another question, we have to take 2 written employment reference And 2 academic reference? Or only once of each?
By the way, the phone call is not difficult.. Only some Q's about flying hours, flight school And some q's of my CV.
Hope it helps.

Regarding the references it is only one of each, it will be stated in the package they send you around a week before the assessment.
And regarding the phone call it seems that besides confirming all the info submitted to them previously (CPL, IRME, MCC, medical dates, flying hours...) it is also a quick english level assessment conversation as some people seem to have more questions asked than others.
Anyway nothing to stress about, just have your info ready at hand as the call can come anytime
Cheers,

first email after application
hi everybody! this is my first post here and I am sorry to bring up again this question but really I can't sleep at night because of it 
.
I applied 19/10/2015 for Ryanair in CAE webpage, section Ryanair, and I was assigned the application number 2590.
Reading this thread seems to be no correlation between this number, the date of your application and the time they will, if ever, contact you. However I cannot believe that the HR department of such a big airline is calling applicants randomly (they could as well just call us by date of application, but this is not the case since reading earlier posts people who applied later than me has already been invited for the interview).
So I kept thinking that they assign the application number following a weighted criterion based on your age, the number of flight hours and the type ratings already held (as index of professional experience that one could already have built since it is usually obtained for professional purposes only), being these the only relevant infos they are interested in at this stage.
This, according to my thinking, would be a way to follow a statistical model they built over the years observing the passing rates of their assessments (and/or time to finish their type rating course) by people from different backgrounds, prioritising those profiles that guarantee a higher passing rate.
I will try to make this reasoning clearer with an example:
- a pilot not older than 25 and with low hours (200hrs) and no TR would be put at the top of the list (identified statistically as high "efficiency" profile)
- a pilot older than 25 but with higher flight experience (500-1000hrs, e.g. Flight Instructor, etc.) and maybe also a TR still would be put in a medium-high ranking (identified statistically as high "efficiency" profile)
- a pilot older than 25 with low hours (200 hrs) and no type rating would be pushed at the bottom of this ranking by those two categories of pilots described above (identified statistically as low "efficiency" profile)
Of course once they call you and see your CV they could refine their research in a similar manner looking at your educational and professional background (University degrees, previous professional flight experience) and for these reason some people may have been contacted for CV quite quickly but than never contacted again.
Now, does anybody have any evidence to disproof my theory? If so, am I right saying that the only thing that one can do is to regularly check into my account to let them know that I am still interested in a job opportunity with them and update my info?
I really hope that I am wrong cause it would be quite frustrating to not be given not even the chance to show them my CV!!
Thanks to anybody will respond to this.
