Hi,

I did my online assesment on Friday June 21st, on Monday June 24th I recive the email from CAE with the confirmation that my application may now proceed to the next step. It's been 4 day waiting for the phone call. I hear that msot people get the call within first 2 days after reciving the email. Is this normal? Anyone has the same problem?

Thanks a lot and good luck everybody.

Just received a PRO from them... Didn't do any test... Applied in February.. Ryanair was my top priority...

I've heard of some guys being asked about the electrical system of the last plan e they flew with, appareantly it's more to assess your english rather than your technical knowledge.
Of course if you explain in proper english that the flap retracting system is feeded with direct current from a windmill situated in Rotterdam that delivers energy to your aircraft via bluetooth technology, that's not good.
And also if you're native english, they may focus more on the technical side. But still, no atpl questions there.

Does anyone know if ryanair prefers the irish license over other EASA states. I'm currently doing my training in Poland and can either finish with an irish or polish license. I'm thinking of converting to polish authority due to how unresponsive the IAA is

You will have to convert to irish anyways if you get the job.

Akum 3rd Jul 2019 11:14

I was doing CPL and IR in different schools,and it took 4 months to get report from them.I know how it feels...
About ATPL resutlts,they need offical document with CAA signs and stapm,not from webstite.

I am now in the process of transferring my licence to the Irish CAA, if I knew, I would've done it straight away.

can i do my skill tests under the IAA while in Poland? I'm also doing my training there

Let your training coordinator know. Shouldn't be an issue but they must do some work before you complete training in case you don't want a Polish license at the end. I had a guy get a UK one and another a Belgium license at my ATO, I assume Irish would be simple as well.

I don't know how you should do it in your CAA,but in Latvian CAA,I just gave them a call and after 1 week,they did it.

Oscar748 6th Jul 2019 08:44

Anyone in FR1910 (introduction starting in EMA the 19th of August 2019)?

AB84 6th Jul 2019 16:09

Hiya, I did Cut-E assessment on thurs 25th of June and still been waiting to hear from them.
Is it taking long time to you too?

polskiland 7th Jul 2019 10:14

Anyone has any idea how they get on with low averages on the ATPL theory?

Does anyone from the inside know anything about recruitment ? I heard they are overstaffed for this winter (of around 300 pilots) and that they are already offering unpaid leave for volonteers for next winter season... Will they still hire co-pilots ?

Try to send new application on CAE website and you will see that you can't. Looks Ike they stopped recruitment.

If i am not wrong they always told that if you wanted to re-apply you had to use the same profile used for the first attempt.Maybe this is the reason you can't.

Akum 13th Jul 2019 12:58

https://careers.ryanair.com/cadets/
push apply button and will show you error 404,page not found. I just checked it again.

Grav 13th Jul 2019 13:38

I did not understood that you were talking about that page, i thought you meant the pages where you had to upload all the documents. I owe you some apologies. I tried too and got the same error.

Rocket61 13th Jul 2019 14:43

Yes but you can find it directly on the CAE website by entering "ryanair" on their own browser and itis still there

Rocket61 13th Jul 2019 14:59

Only the link has changed, might be CAE who moved the page and Ryanair didn't update

James Ken McIntosh 13th Jul 2019 20:09

The CAE website down
 
They are still recruiting

the CAE site is down, you get the same page error for Flydubai,volotea not just RYR

Oscar748 14th Jul 2019 10:45

Hi SaintEx31

Yeah this is true, I also hear that recruitment is stopping fairly soon or maybe already.

Rocket61 15th Jul 2019 14:41

Anyone still waiting for e-mail/call after online assessement ?

anto125 16th Jul 2019 03:06

As most of you helped me sharing your experience I'll try to do the same..
sent application around the 20th of June
Assessment online within 10 days
2 days after got invitation for the 12 of july

Went to Upilot for 3 hours preparation, haven't flown since basic MCC no joc in January.
Absolutely suggested, good tips and not too expensive. Be award that there are trim problems on the joke. I flew like a fish and got worried, perfectly fine at Ryanair. The feedback system in the yoke is basically not working.

Technical interview:
Why swept wings, vortex generators, wingtip stall, engine on my twin, fuel contamimation, stab trim, orographic clouds, lenticular clouds, BR and FG in metars, carb icing temp range, bypass engines.
HR:
Questions regarding previous jobs, likes/dislikes regarding my school, challenging situations in previous jobs, what I would bring to the company, type rating starting preferences.
Questions

Assessors are friendly and easygoing, be precise and not too long in answers, go straight to the point and you'll prevent getting stuck where you don't want to be. Take your time to answer and correct yourself if you do some mistakes, it will be fine.
I believe it lasted 20-25 min

SIM
East midlands plates, sid then vectors, manouvers, climbs, descents + turns, 45° turns, display position on chart, emergency (medical), troubleshoot with your F/O, Dodar, nits, decided to head back (don't do it straight away, discuss it with tour partner), holding entry (just asked) vectored for ILS 27. PF went good then as PM basically same things. My partner just went around when visual at 100 feet because of glide at full deflection, and instructor said it was a good approach. No reasons to do that at that altitude, ripositioned us at Fix and let him go for another round.

Just be comunicative and act like you would do in reality. Don't get too stressed (easy to say afterwards...) but you don't need to panic.
If you're not native english speaking, just keep it simple and be confident.

From friday got positive answer today after there days, both me and my partner got the job.
Walking two feets from the ground.

Best of luck to you guys!

fiducioso 18th Jul 2019 08:38

Hello, In your opinion...is this a bad moment to apply for Ryanair? Several people told me that in the last 6 months, only 30% of candidates passed the interview.
thanks

Rocket61 18th Jul 2019 13:20

It is always worth a try. It is true that the actual growth will be less important than expected due to the 737 Max. They are going to close some bases for the winter season, and offer unpaid leaves to some pilots. It is also very well known that even when they are not recruiting (or when they only need a few people) they still call a lot of cadets for selection.

Indeed, as they charge you quite a lot of money for the assessment, the selection process is almost costless for the airline (some even say they make money out of it but I have to say I don't know...) so they don't really care about asking people to come.

A few months ago the whole 36 or 38 cadets of the week have been adjourned.

Don't tell me the 38 were unfit for the job...

So it is up to you, some still managed to pass regarding previous message. If you have 1000e for plane tickets, assessment, hotel and maybe sim refresh, then it is highly recommended to give it a try

Grav 18th Jul 2019 21:38

Fiducioso, don't worry, they are still recruiting, i had the interview two days ago and 5 out of 8 got the job, so the "pass rate" is very different for every group of cadets.

fiducioso 19th Jul 2019 06:22

Maybe should I wait to apply until the 737 max start to arrive?

anto125 19th Jul 2019 06:41

I wouldn't advice you to do so at all...if you're fit for them they would hire you
do you already have a job?

How would you even think they make any money with this?

Have you any idea how much instructors, SIM engineers hr staff and the SIM itself cost to run assessments?

Then you are basically saying that they fail people because they don't need them? Sorry but you are completely wrong.

You are obviously making things up about the week that 38 people didn't get through,

PPRuNeUser0156 19th Jul 2019 08:19

Considering they are still hiring, why would they get rid of 38 students that they felt met the grade enough to bring them for interview?

This sounds like complete BS from someone who is clearly bitter about something.
