Yeoman...you got me bang to rights! (RS Man Matey?) correct.
Just been speaking to one of our management team who is "filtering" the applications. Just under 800 received for probably around 20-30 jobs. As you can imagine the filtering was fairly ruthless. First to go people without a type rating as required by the original job ad, then people with only a Classic rating and so on. Final filter was the response to the Customer Service question on the application. Possible candidates were then sent contract details and some pulled out at that stage. I would guess that if you haven't received this email with the terms and conditions that is a good indicator of an unsuccessful application.
As far as recently redundant pilots and current CTC Cadets are concerned ( who have already undergone a Thomson conversion course and are flying for us now) they also are on the list of who will be considered for interview (files being reviewed by 737 Training Management as I write). The Company have the advantage of in house training records for these prospective employees which could, of course, be a double edged sword!
Good luck to those who are invited for interview which begin I think early November.

Assessments
Hi chaps,
Lots of good information here, thanks. I'm driving for RYR at the moment and lucky enough to have an assessment in November. Any further info on the T's and C's of the contract (I haven't heard anything about it yet) and also on what the assessment day consists of? (Likewise, no information provided yet). Anything anybody knows would be much appreciated.
