Little relevance but BVB said something about "every other ATPL course graduate". The wrong terminology used by many there I find quite annoying, just wondered if others think the same.

I have a start date, the 07/03/2016 is when check into my accommodation in New Zealand. Interestingly the ground school is done over there too! I was not expecting that!
Is there anyone else on my training course with ctc? (apologies for the caps lock in my initial post I was slightly exited at the time).

I also have a start date of the 7th of March. I'm not sure about the ground school being in NZ though. It's a tad confusing. It states Hamilton uk but in course prep states you need to have flight booked for NZ by the 26 th week of training.
Anyway, tried to pm you danielwings but wouldn't let me

It does say Hamilton uk,but the dates are also all a year out so I'm not sure about the reliability of that document. I'm going to ring them today. I can't find a way to pm you either.

I have spoken to ctc today, if anyone on the course wants to get in touch with me the only option I can think of is an email. My email address is [email protected]. Pop me an email and I'll reply as PM really is not working for me!

I also got the good news from CTC last week, and will be starting in NZ on the 7th March along with you guys that have posted above.
If there's anyone else who made it but hasn't posted yet, then drop me a PM. It would be nice get to know a few of you before we start!

Just wondering.. I know that there's a forum regarding the effect of Brexit on the aviation industry, but if the UK were to leave the EU, would that significantly effect EasyJet's recruitment plans? - such as the EZY MPL 2017

There are a lot more EU nationals flying for UK based airlines than there are UK nationals flying for European airlines. The language fluency requirements for German, Spanish and French airlines precluded most UK pilots from been able to gain employment in Europe.
Swiss Air seem to operated into every European country, so been non-EU doesn't seem to affect their ability to operate across Europe.

Dear Cadets/Pilots/Instructors,
This year I am finishing my sixth year of study in Scotland. I want to apply for the easyJet MPL programme. Recently, I read that FTE Jerez has become an end graduate supplier for easyJet.
My question, is it possible that easyJet will open a cadet programme in FTE Jerez in the near future?
Also, is there any specific preparation material that may be found to help with the selection process?
Thank you for your time.

For new cadets undertaking their training with CTC Aviation, CAE or FTE Jerez, many will have the opportunity to apply for all or part of their training loan (between £30,000 to £100,000) underwritten by the airline and some experienced pilots joining from other airlines can also apply for the opportunity to have their type rating loan underwritten.
Good news for sponsored cadets??

It's an easyJet press release.
easyJet opens recruitment for 450 pilot positions - Pilot Career News
CTC, FTE and the usual are involved, although on asking them it hasn't filtered down to them completely yet so i imagine the specifics are still being worked on. It's unknown whether this applies to ATPL or simply MPL cadets at this stage. Most likely the latter. It's also unknown if it will apply to the MPL intake in the latter part of 2016.

Hm. I got excited when i seen this a few days ago but now I'm a little sceptical. If you look on that link it says that you can apply now, so it takes you to the careers section of the site. If you look at the vacancies there are 3 relatable to this press release.
1. Amy Johnson initiative;
2. Cadet co-pilots - Switzerland;
3. Future cadet programme - Switzerland.
So the problem with 1 (if you're a male that is) is that the offer is there to underwrite loans for 6 females only, nothing here about underwriting loans for males, so guys, I think we're out for this option.
2. Cadet co-pilots - read it. It's for graduates who have GRADUATED from an approved easyjet training organisation. The offer is here to underwrite a loan for type rating. Again, good if you're an ab-initio grad.
3. Future cadet programme - It states you have to self fund training at an approved easyjet training organisation AND type rating.
I suspect, but I may be wrong, that when they say about underwriting loans of 30k-100k that they're talking about the 6 100k loans for the Amy Johnson initiative, and at the other end of the scale, the 30k needed for the cadet co-pilots from point 2.
The 400 cadet pilots will be a mix of already qualified and ab initio, but I suspect more qualified than an initio, and for an initio... I don't think there would be any offer for loan underwriting there.
That's just my view on it, and I welcome being corrected at some point in the future!

EasyJet acceptance
I applied to EasyJet about 12 days ago, and completed the assessments 2 days later. I got an email reading the following a a few minutes later: 'We are pleased to inform you that you have successfully completed the online assessment which is the first stage of the recruitment process. Your application and CV will now be screened for evidence of the competences that are critical to success in a pilot role.'
I still haven't got a reply from them yet as to whether I've been successful or not. A friend of mine, who's at the same level as I am in terms of experience and age etc..., completed the assessment and got a rejection email about 30 mins later.
Does this mean the post-assessment email works automatically, so if a point threshold isn't reached, you automatically get sent a rejection email, and if you've passed this limit, they take a look at your application and assessment?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
