Also the deadline for the original application went past the 4pm deadline on their website so don’t worry! Kick back the feet for the next six weeks lol

Only time will tell now. I did my best and that is all we can do. If nothing else it is good experience.
If we don't get through this time we will achieve our dreams eventually. Okay that is my positive post for the day!

Best of luck everyone, the wait has officially started!

Can somebody remind what the different stages are before the lucky few are selected.
Stage 1 was the registration
Stage 2 was the online assessments & video interview.
Is the Assessment Centre in Dublin next or are there other stages before and after that?

About 2-3 weeks after this was the psychometric interviews followed by a Class 1 medical.
Do we have any idea approx how many people get invited to the assessment centre?
Apologies if this info has already been posted.

@Rezh12, what type of question did they ask you in the questionnaire?
Did you complete the second section yet? Maybe you can let us all know what we have to expect! How was the video interview?

OK so I've done everything last Sunday, the video interview are just normal questions that you'd get when being interviewed by any company (ie why aer lingus).
With the assessment, its definitely one of the hardest entry assessments I've done (done some over the years not just for pilot positions but engineer too).
And as I was writing this is just realised the deadline is now done... I'm just going to post this as it is
Does anyone else's application still say invite to pre selection?

Question regarding the on-the day (pre-lunch) assessments, were they identical to the ones we have completed online, right down to the personality questionnaire, or were they different?

When I went through the process back in 2016, I didn't have to redo the online assessments... I guess they only ask those who did really well online to redo them on the day?
Pre-lunch assessments:
1) "Panel Exercise" - not sure if they're still doing this.. you're grouped in 3s and are each given 2-3 random questions to ask/answer each other. One of my questions was about drones. You're marked by two staff members. Not sure of the point of that exercise...
2) Group Exercise - the usual.
