Thank you
Dear Norwegian Airlines,
Thank you for taking us serious and screen us via this very realistic testing method. Most of all giving us the thought of a chance to get that job into the cockpit as a lowtimer. Just a waste of time this airliner.

I'm out too, for now. They're getting over 200 new planes delivered from late next year (if there's been no changes since the 2012 orders). 12 new-hires will not suffice in the long run. 
Carry on!

Please be aware that due to the high number of applications that we receive, we are unable to provide further feedback at this stage of the process.
225TT, 5 hrs last year. Though, they did not mention hours for me, though.
Might it be results from the tests? Or they just did not bother to elaborate?
Good luck to the rest!

I'm reliably informed that they're looking for a minimum of 1,000 hours, with 150 in the last year.
So no 'cadets'.
My previous comments apply.
Just shows what a huge risk a self-sponsored course is if you're not attached in some way to an airline (sponsored).
Hopefully the market will improve, but you'll always be limited if you're on your own with low hours.

Spanner we are already well informed about requirements, posts ago a guy showed us the 1000 hrs TT and 150 hrs past year, and by the way all the thread has been base on a huge misunderstanding: Norwegian have been looking for First Officer and not cadet, so at the end is not a surprise if low timers are discharged.
By the way on Norwegian web site the first officer not type rated is not available anymore.

I think it's all a bit of a numbers game to be honest.
Over 6000 applications for just over 30 non t/r jobs - it means that effectively you have a 1 in 200 chance of being offered a job. I don't know what the odds were for actually getting an interview in the first place, but probably equally as long. I'm assuming that the rejections have been sent out because the limited number of courses are now full.
It's a shame but that seems to be the nature of the industry at the moment - very few jobs and very many applicants.
However, for those who were successful, it is a fantastic opportunity with a company that is moving in the right direction with a clear plan for the future.
