Ahh Ron dont worry about it you'll be fine. Im not sure they'll be that bothered about you missing a full stop here or a comma there.......missng the runway though........
Awww everyone seems so nervous on here about this. Guys and girls just calm down, read the posts, if no-one on here has stage 3 invites then the chances are the havent been sent out yet......
There are a lot of applicants so it's obviously going to take time
Good luck all

Any news?
Has anybody received a stage 3 invite yet? I thought they would have been sent out by now considering the assessments start on Friday! Then again they are probably overwhelmed with applications. I am sure someone will post here once they have one, will keep my ear to the ground.

Hi,
I am also a female aged 20. Still heard nothing unfortunately I have emailed and all i got was a we received your questions sort of response, So I think they're enormously busy. Its just annoying for those who have to arrange flights last week my flights would have been £70 now they're £300
I just hope it isnt one of these things where if you dont get through you'll get a letter about 100 years later lol good luck

Ha, know the feeling! Used to fly between UK and ireland quite often. One day the price would be quite resonable...would wait another day to see if it went down anymore, but usually would double or something.... 
Like you said, must be so many applicants, but surely they should cater for people in your position, assessments spread over 4 days so might be given a later date.

Does anybody here have the number for the HR dept. at TC? My online application says I've been scheduled for assessment but I still haven't received the questionnaire?!
I've checked my spam folder and it's not there. When I check online it says that the only email they've sent is the one confirming they received my application. I'm worried that I may have been forgotten

Sam

Hi all,
Thanks!
For the call I got this morning, the number was not visible. But I'm guessing they'd leave a voicemail you don't pick up.
Nicky, they've fully mentionned the financial commitment in the description page of this cadets scheme on TCX website. There is nothing related to money in the invite.
By the way, does anyone still have a copy of this job ad that was on their website. I think it was made by the Chief Pilot of TCX. He talks about programme, quality, salary etc...
Anyone else heard from TCX then?
Good luck guys!

If you read the same thing as me then they do not go into too much detail about this. Or have you read something different?

Hi guys, great to see there's some competition out there, really, really great. 
.
I've not heard anything yet . I left a voicemail with them on Friday afternoon asking to discuss the scheduling of phase 3, they haven't replied, not surprising though given the workload they'll have right now. Hopefully will hear something tomorrow like everybody else is hoping for, praying for, crossing fingers for etc.
I've whittled through this thread and not noticed anything regarding the content of the next two phases we're potentially faced with. From my previous experience of "mentored" scheme application processes I imagine stage 3 would be aptitude based with an initial interview discussing the answers we all tirelessly answered just a few days ago; fairly relaxed and casual testing much similar to standard FTE aptitude testing if anybody else has experience of those (PM me if you want info, I've done/passed them twice since 2007). I imagine the fourth stage will be the real test - interviews with the TC and FTE guys and maybe even a simulator test.
This is merely speculation, just trying to add to the thread, whilst fishing for any ideas other applicants may have of the next two stages.
Good luck. So long as you give it me back for the weekend...

loans
What are you all doing about loans? I think I'll go for a career development loan of £10k and the rest cash, as I don't want the stress of servicing debt when I finish (if successful!), but just wanted to see what others were doing?
