@ Syntax Error : I've completed the psycho this morning and received an email this evening about the pre-selection exercise. It is also mentioned that an appropriate score is required to pass the test.

I guess it's a double email but the wording and description is different saying I will be contacted again to complete them. I managed around half of the verbal reasoning.

What kind of questions can I expect? Math? Memory? ATPL?

Any examples? Will appreciate any info

Quite weird, I've done the online test and I didn't get the 30 ATPL questions! Are you sure?

Anyway I messed up on the verbal and spatial reasoning! I've found these parts pretty hard!

Good luck

and of course in the end 30 ATPL questions to enjoy.
Mainly based on operations, minimas, maximas and loads of fog!
Can anyone else confirm this? I have not heard of anyone else encountering ATPL questions.

Tests

Good morning folks,

2 days ago I received an invitation to do the pre-selection tests online, which I did yesterday. In the first email I got from Aer Lingus HR there was a remark about doing it in three days. Personally, I really donīt like such tests, especially putting right pieces in right places in that 3D game or the last exercise which was the tunnel flying. I wasnīt nearly able to fly through any of those obstacles :-)

After having finished it, several hours later, I got another email from them inviting me for pre-selection tests. I know it has been mentioned here dozen times, but I reckon that the second email was written in a slightly different manner than the first one.

Also there was no remark that needs to be finished in 3 days.

Nonetheless I wish you the best of luck, hopefully some of you are lucky and get through.

Best regards from Prague.

The second email from HR:

As part of your application to Aer Lingus for the role of First Officer, you will be asked to complete a number of online pre-selection exercises.

An invitation to complete the exercises will be sent to you by email from our test partner within the next few days. We strongly advise you to monitor your e-mail account for this invitation.
Please follow the instructions carefully and complete the exercises as soon as you receive them.

The skills tested in these exercises are essential to ensure the satisfactory performance of the job. You must obtain an appropriate score on each exercise to be eligible to progress to the next stage of the recruitment process. We regret that if you do not pass this stage for any reason you will not be considered for the next stage of the recruitment process.

If you have any questions about these tests, have any special requirements, or do not receive an invitation to take this test from our test partner over the next 3 days, please e-mail us at [email protected].

Yours Sincerely

The Aer Lingus Recruitment Team

I personally found time to be the issue with most exercises.
The flying in the tunnel was not as bad as I thought considering 2 crashes in 3 minutes but the 3d cubes and the text questions needed more time.
