For those who haven't heard yet, i wouldn't worry. It's seems like they've dished out all the unsuccessful emails already. So no news is still good news for you lot.

Just got mine a few minutes ago, and I'm thrilled. Almost started losing my hope seeing that the guys who first posted their good news are mostly from Scotland/UK/Ireland.
Best of luck to everyone.

Put yourself in the recruiters shoes and think what kind of information they are trying to gather from aspiring pilots. The video interview is a good method as aside from the information you provide it's also testing some key pilot skills - communication, information processing, thinking on your feet, working and remaining calm under pressure. All in a time constrained environment.
I have no stake in this. I wish everyone the best

I'm sure you mean well but there is a limit to how much people are able help each other on the forum considering how competitive these processes are.

Well done everyone, I'm assuming i'm going to be, like most people, doing their interviews over the weekend when work isn't a distraction etc.
However if anyone has already completed the assessment, just out of curiosity, are the questions complex or quite simple but fast paced? I don't want to know the questions themselves as this i don't like. However i'm just worried that i'm going to be asked a question that i will not know the meaning of, therefore in the end crippling my chance haha.
Once again, congrats everyone who has passed through to the next stage!

Hi guys I'm currently on holidays and have no access to a webcam/laptop. I'm just wondering if any of you are going to use the app which is linked in the email, could you tell what the experience is like and if it works on an iPhone/iPad? Thank you
