Actually in respect of Irish licence / JAA Licence, it does make a difference.
The state in which your JAA Licence was issued does matter to many airlines and authorities that they are under.
The UK/CAA and the IAA generally there are no issues but the airlines for the purposes of tracking and paperwork preffer to keep all pilots on same state of licence issue.

T668BFJ,
I see your point. But, I'm guessing that most people who apply for Aer Arann would have IAA or CAA issued licences since most of their pilots are Irish or British. Also, a lot of Irish wannabes are going abroad for training, and will usually end up with CAA licences. Anyway, it shouldn't be any trouble getting a licence from the IAA if you are already qualified in a different country.

Where do AA have bases? I'm assuming they will prefer Irish guys and gals if all their bases are in Eire. If they have bases in the UK, I'll add this one to my list of "targets".
(clocked 900 hours today, last 300 of which Multi Engine and last 200 of that Multi Crew. Need to get out of this before I reach 1000!)

where there putting all the queens of the company
Im Danish, unfortunately,but managed to get a job with them.I REALLY SHOULDN'T BE HERE
I recently went to Dublin Airport walked up to the Atrium (is it supposed to be restricted?) and handed in a C.V. to reception as there was nobody there to talk to me. I recieved a note in the post three days later thanking me for my C.V. but informing me that they accept applications through their website only Either way I haven't heard anything since which is a shame because I really want to work for them.
Who knows, maybe one day....

If you have already a type rating, they won't ask you many technical questions, the interview will be very relax, with typical questions ( why do you want to join us ? where did you study? etc...).
If you are not type rated, they will ask you basic ATPL questions (meteo, perf, OPS, principle of flight, mass and balance, etc).
If you are successful at the interview, you will be invited to a sim ride, in an oldfashion B732 flight simlator. At this stage, you have to bring the vaseline, because it might be very painful
You will have a 20 minutes technical breifing with the head of training or the chief pilot, so you will have to learn in 10 seconds (or less
) all the parameters, speeds, flaps and gear configuration, call outs, etc.
In theory there is no big deal in the sim. take off, radar vector towards an NDB, holding, and radar vector to an ILS approach. then, if you still have time, you will have to make a go around and a fullstop landing.
You will do that as both PF, and as PNF.
This simulator is crap, and it is quite hard to fly it !
If you did not make it, you will kindly be asked to go back home ASAP !
If you made it, they will then give you a date to go down to Toulouse for the OPC.
Be aware that they do fail lots of people in the sim during the OPC at Toulouse !
And some people during the line training as well
.
Anyway, have fun in the sim !
All the best !

Icing AOA,
I don't know where you have those scary stories from
I once flew for them for some years as a capt. and I never heard of any failing their opc/LPC. There has been a couple who failed their command upgrade and 1 or 2 F/O's during their line training which is not unsual but certainly not as many as you are saying.
In fact they are so stuck for pilots that if you have licence you are almost there
