TUI MPL Cadet Programme Jan 2024

[Puffpuffgive]

So one of you will get off the waiting list. I unfortunately have to withdraw. I have gone over the 100hr limit since applying for the role, you have to remain under the 100hrs until day one of the training course. Good luck to everyone.

Anyone on the waiting list heard anything?

nothing as of yet, I’m curious what “very limited” means for the waiting list. What do you think, 20 people 50?

[Fraseradams1]

Still heard nothing, pretty much resigned my fate that I haven’t got a space

Not heard anything yet myself.

Not received anything as of yet. They said they'd be sending out invites from the 22nd! Good luck! I'm not feeling very confident as the assessment centre was pretty tough hahaha

where did you read this? Emails on a Sunday night seems unlikely? Also, how do we think candidates will be assessed? If you fail one of the 4 tests would you not be considered at all? Or is it a total score across the 4 exercise you have to meet...

Waiting

Is anyone else finding this the worst wait ever like I just want to know. The assessment centre didn’t feel like it went amazing but it’s still just sort of waiting around to know 😫

It's a good question -
I'm hoping its an overall scoring as I'm sure I will have performed below par on the case study. My instinct is telling me that you have to pass all tasks separately and then they take those who passed all the tasks AND performed best from the final interviews forward to the Sim Assessment. They can afford to be picky as there's 140 candidates to choose from and only 60 sim spots. So, if you fail the case study or the maths test but do well in the final interview I don't think you'll be put though.

Again, I don't know this for sure but it seems like the most plausible option otherwise its pretty tough to narrow down from 140 to 60.

Obviously we can only speculate but I think it’s very unlikely there is a predetermined total score you have to meet, instead I think everyone will be scored and then ranked based on their score and the top 60 or so will be invited to the sim assessment. I think they suggested they might invite a few more if it’s really close or the candidates are very strong.

However there may also be a minimum score you need to achieve in each or perhaps just some of the exercises, probably predetermined but perhaps dependent on how well everyone else does. Personally I hope there isn’t, unless it’s an extremely low bar because I think I did very poorly in the maths test although assuming the maths test contributes equally to the total the score as the other exercises then I’m still probably screwed.

News

Some people were told the earliest would be around midweek so tomorrow onwards I presume. They kept reiterating TUI look for people not robots and therefore I do believe as long as you didn’t get 0 or incredibly low you should be okay for maths and case study however for the case study it shows you can learn which is something they need to see but from what I got from the day it seemed the most important would be group task and interview but I Cole also be completely wrong

I really hope this is the case, does anyone know from last year's applicants how scoring is usually?

[FLYhigh129]

No update as of today! looking like its going to be the end of the week!
