Congratulations to all who have received their emails and have been successful!
Is it the case that everyone who has received an email has been successful at the application stage? I am yet to receive an e-mail, and my status is still at the 'awaiting selection' stage... Could it possibly be the case that they are emailing successful applicants first?

Ah, to the people who received an email, first of all congratulations, but I'm just wondering when did you guys send off your application? Are they sending out emails to all the people who have passed first, or are they just doing it in order they received applications?
Thanks
Thanks

Well done to everyone who was succesful!
Anyone know what we can do to prepare for the assesment day? Sounds like it's going to be pretty full on with tests, group exercises and interviews on the same day.
Will it be the same PILAPT test that CTC uses for their flying schemes and for Gen EZY?

Best of luck guys! I really recommend an AirlinePrep session to those who have interviews, they really open your eyes as to how to perform at the interview, how to structure your answers, techniques and tips on how to do well at group exercises, the maths test, etc.

@Jbaldwin95,
Both Virgin Atlantic assessments I attended followed the CTC Whitetail assessment structure with a couple of small changes to the group tasks to make it more appropriate to Virgin, but it does indeed contain a PILAPT, Maths Test and Group Exercise. I actually wrote about the process on my blog (check link in my profile), might be worth a read. I can't comment on the final stages though as I didn't make the final Crawley shortlisted so instead joined the Whitetail route.
Good luck!

+ congrats on being able to follow your dream, I hope I can be so luckly shortly.
CTC's stage 2 assesment days get filled up VERY quickly (much faster than OAA's for some reason), just got to keep checking for new slots, hopefully there will be some in a week or two's time, I couldn't make the ones for this coming week, no matter how hard I tried, because of work commitments and the short notice (only found out on friday).

@mjennings061 - Keep checking the site regularly as the selection team told me when I applied last time that in order to ensure selection days fill up they only release them batches at a time. What's more, when no more are remaining I'd imagine that slots need to be confirmed with Virgin -- if indeed they plan to attend selections this year. I'll also add that as it's Christmas time, just as last year, that if dates are booked up over Christmas that new ones won't be added until CTC returns in the NY.
@LukeChafer - There didn't seem to be any pattern in their emails last time around, I felt just like you for some time but I eventually got news. For the time being sit tight and remember that no news is good news :-)
Best of luck to everyone!

Still waiting for email as well.
But it's strange that they decided to start assessments this year. On CTC page it says:
"The selection events with CTC Aviation will take place in January 2017"
To be honest it is a shock to the system that they are carrying assessments on dates like 21st Dec! It would be good if new slots were available for January

Got rejected just wondering to those people who got through, do you guys have experience of flying already? I kind of want to figure out how to make my application stronger for next time. Thanks. Also congrats for getting through!
