Guys I don't pretend to be an 
, however want to remind that Aer Lingus is not Ryanair, where if you do everything right you get the job, here we are competing with each other, all of us, for the limited amount of positions available, so think twice before releasing data to help other candidates.

unless your going to do the test for someone else sharing info will not change someones reaction time or mental capabilities. Good luck to everyone

There´s a huge difference from my point of view, on helping other guys with questions like, can I use a Mac Book? Do I need a joystick? Link doesn´t work, or those are the question you are going to get: They will ask you to calculate size of ... or you will get during the interview X question, as this will make a difference from a candidate to another, perhaps to make to the interview if the scores are higher and there´s a limited amount of places.
But this is just my opinion, and also this was said in the last year interviews as far as I´m concern, to not share questions outside, as this might be a reason to be disqualified right away if caught, and that this was a competitions. Note that the fact you are now competing doesn´t mean you can´t work as team player when required.

Part 1 Tests
Good Evening Ladies and Gents,
I have completed Parts 2, 3 and 4 and am I am looking to set aside enough quiet time to complete Part 1. I'd appreciate it if you could give me a rough indication how long it took to get through all eight individual tests in Part 1.
Regarding wearing a suit for the video interview, I wore a smart shirt and tie (no jacket).
Many thanks for your help.

How about pants man! Did you wear pants!
P.S. For the ones that have done Part1, do you have to do all of them together in one go? Or can you take a break from one section of part 1 of the assessment, and then go back into it? For example can you do work related behaviour, followed by reaction speed and spatial orientation and then do complex control at a later date?

Dead right, as the camera is focused on the top half you could be naked from the waist down, for the record I wasn’t.........or was I?
Looking at the original email it says that there are four sets of assessments and that you can complete one set and do the other sets at a later date. From that I assume that you have to do all tests in a set in one sitting which means that all eight in set 1 have to be done without a break.

Nearly choked on my cereal when I read "help those entering the market...even tho we are competing, doesn't mean we can't work as a team". Seriously now, get real.
From 3.000 applicants, and considering that the ratio in aviation is around 2:1 from interview to job, how many people do you reckon will be invited to assessments? Do you believe that they have the facilities and capacity to interview even half of that, considering the timeframe set? Low hour pilots will be scrutinised to the every point/mark, because the market is flooded, the experienced ones should get the majority of slots and their online assessment results will be used as a tool to break deadlocks e.g. he/she interviewed ok-ish and group exercise was ok, rusty in the sim, lets look at his/her results.
Whilst low hours, if your performance is poor in comparison to the other guy, guess who will attend the assessment?
Wake up and smell the coffee. Those entering the market should have been switched on enough to understand this concept, as well as doing the research themselves, this is no integrated school where you are spoon-fed all the way. Airlines look for competencies, figure out what sort of question you will get based on what I just said, competencies. Remember that 3.000 applied, there are 100 jobs...go figure.
I can't believe we even need to spell it out...

Hey guys, thanks to all who have helped share advice so far. I was just wondering on whether anyone could elaborate on the video interview questions? For example, are they just "tell us about yourself?" "why do you want to work for us?" or more competency based - "tell us about a time you've had to deal with conflict" etc?
Thanks again, any advice is appreciated!

Here it is Giorgino, video interview questions;
1) Did you understand the disclaimer you were supposed to read and accept, about the disclosure of Information about this assessment, and that could disqualify you from the process?
2) if so, do you understand that it is designed to be equal and fair, and by sharing, you are giving an unfair advantage to others?
3) if you can’t comply with a simple a structure and rules, and obviously are very stubborn and have difficulty in understanding simple concepts, why should we trust you with our multi-million dollars equipment?
4) Are you naive? Anything else ?
Those are the questions kids, now grow up. You wait months if not years for an opportunity, and when it comes, they make us do an online test and some muppets don’t get it that it’s a filter tool. Then someone decides to spill it all online, the other guys will prepare and possibly perform better than you. Pilots were supposed to be smart....

I do confess that I am not smart perhaps like your self my good friend
Up to now 62 people seem to be stupid like me by asking what was it like...
The way I see it is that unless I do something that directly insults someone in this forum I can help anyone I want no matter if you do not agree
On top of that if someone will be disqualified will be me not you so I still do not understand your argument
I always enjoyed muppet show so I take the word muppet as a compliment

You don’t get it do you? I guess I was right....the 62 people who contacted you are not stupid, you are! They have taken advantage of the fact that YOU were prepared to give the game away, knowing full well it is a competition. This is not Ryanair where anyone who meets the standard gets the job, there are 100 jobs to 3000 applicants, do you need a picture?
And yes, I do hope Aer Língus gets Hold of this, even left your name in the open which isn’t the smartest thing.
This is not rocket science and perhaps you shouldn’t make it to the next stage. The terms of application were open to everyone and obviously you didn’t understand.
