But if its true, CONGRATS !

For those of you that have been invited for an assessment, Have you all got at least a PPL or less?

Wondered if anyone with a CPL/IR has been invited yet.

[ZaaZoo]

That's great for you EU guys, now all of us here in the USA have to wait until august.

[ashmunn]

yeh and all of us waiting 'down under,' when will the assessment day be in australia? well done to all of you guys through best of luck !!

[CruiseControl_007]

Just wanted ask a question to guys who have been invited...

Was you status 'Under Review' or 'Blank' when you got the invite?

Cheers.

[rhythm08]

Mine said under review.

So have they just invited everyone who applied or have they actually screened th CV's first?

emirates001......i dont have a PPL, just 40 hours. in the email, you have to confirm the following....

You are not currently a holder of a CPL.

ashmunn,

...in the email, you have to confirm the following....

You are not currently a holder of a CPL.

Thus CPL holders do not satisfy their requirements.

[ashmunn]

yeh i got that, officially i dont have the cpl licence yet. but im thinking this is all just a waste of time now. i dont think i can be bothered re-sitting the exams. on my application i wrote that i had passed all my cpl subjects, and i have been under review for 5 weeks now, havent been rejected.

[AdamLT]

ashmunn,

how come you said you had your CPL on your application but you don't have it yet?
maybe consider changing it on your application. i added my cv about 1 month after i initially completed my application.
be patient. i applied in april. long wait i know.

fingers crossed for you

[ashmunn]

no i put on my cv that i had passed all 7 of the cpl theory exams, i still have a few more hours to get before i sit the flight test. i sent my cv and app at same time. so they know i have passed all my exams, but they didnt reject me! but im guessing if i do make it i will have to resit them.

[AdamLT]

ashmunn...

don't worry. i have a friend starting with netjets (at OAA) this month. he has his PPL, 130 hours and passed 7 of the 14 ATPL exams. he has to re-sit everything.
he's not gutted..just really looking forward to starting.

[ashmunn]

ah thats cool, good on him. if anything, already having done them will make it easier to resit them i guess lol. i have no idea how long this recruitment process will take, so being up to the cpl test almost, i might have to put the flying on hold. cheers for your insight mate wish ya all the best !

[AdamLT]

all the best to you too...and i'm sure you'll ace the CPL skills test

So guys does anyone know whether the applications have actually been screened or have they just invited everyone that met criteria?

Jay

[EYZ]

They have been screened, 7000 down to 1000. Asrum you dont have a CPL, do you? So dont panic, yes you would have to resit them, unless you have a UAE CPL? I doubt thats the case. Oz in August or early Sept.

[rmoller]

7000? that other guy said that there were only 700 ...

I'm still under review, maybe because I'm not 18 yet (in August I will be), or maybe it is because I'm from Belgium, damn Arabic racists (just joking, you never know, maybe the guy who does the selections with etihad reads this topic daily )
