Assessment in Stansted
 

Hi Guys,

Anyone attending the assessment in Stansted on the 13th of November?

PM me if so :)

Cheers

Hi Everyone,


@RMY & @ propelah thank you for taking the time to post your experience of your Ryanair interviews. Can I ask you both if you can remember the strength of the wind they used for the simulator detail and how far off it was ?


Did you use any interview preparation packages from latestpilotjobs/flightdeckfriend and if so were they accurate to the questions you got ?


Can I please ask people who are on interview this week to post the type of questions they had regarding technical side as they seem to be mixing it up a little.

We used RWY 27 in Liverpool. The strength was 300/10kts.
It may depend on the assessor, but I dont think you will get more.

Ceiling was 700AGL




I attended interview last week in Dublin, and received positive answer today!
Everything at the interview was as expected. No tricks etc.

How Long is it taking from successful assessment to tr

@ henricho it depends, but generally 3 to 5 months.

RYR Assesment 30th
 

I havent heard anything... I take it you didnt either? how did yours go?

Hello everyone, done my assessment on 22nd of October at Dublin, positive reply on 31st of October, allocated for FR1417 TR course starting on 23rd of March 2015 is anyone in this group?

I am! Check the FR1417-group on Facebook

Guys, I applied via CAE a year ago and never heard back from them despite updating my data and (of course) meeting all the formal requirements. Does it make sense to withdraw the application and re-apply? Has this worked out for anybody? Has anybody been contacted swiftly after such a re-application?

Those who have had a telephone interview - would you say they are only interested in:

First time passes on the

- ME/IR and
- all 14 ATPLs?

Are they allowing partial's / fails on the CPL and one or two resits on ATPLs..?

LGW1403
 

Anyone Type Rating Course LGW1403 ?

Hello,
I applied through CAE, did the interview in STN on the 30th Oct 2014 and I got the positive answer 2 days ago via email from McGinley Aviation.

However, differently from some friends of mine who got through few days before me, I haven't received any date for the beginning of the TR course yet.
The reason for this, as explained in the e-mail, is because all courses planned up to March 2015 are fully booked and RYR is working with CAE in estabilishing the new set of course dates. I can expect to receive course dates in the next couple of weeks.

I crosschecked with my simulator partner and he got the same e-mail.

Several account
 

Finalcheck
I have sent my first application in May13 and nothing... I have created two other accounts and nothing. I have withdraw all my accounts and waited 1 month... Now I have re-apply with my initial account... Wait and see

Hey,

I had light wind, 10-15kt no gusts. Rwy 27 Liverpool also and ceiling was between 1000-1500ft AGL.

Good luck

Hello.
I sent an email to CAE 1 week ago with my CV and details about my application, but I still no phone call. :rolleyes:
Do you know how long does it take usually?

Anyone else on CAE 1415 starting 29th Dec?

For anyone who has done the induction week, can you tell me exactly what it entails, what paperwork you need to take?

Hi all,


Had the assessment yesterday no tricks they really try to calm your nerves didn't work for me.


I was first in the simulator Dublin was the choice of the day RW28 cloud base 700ft wind 310/10. Both me and my sim buddy got non standard departures to 5000ft levelled off and some GH. Position fix using NDB then intercept and track inbound. Fire in the gally for both of us with vectors to the ILS and the GS & LOC failed on once localizer established.

That's the nitty gritty part of the day everyone wants to know but here is a little insight to how I felt the day went and any feedback from people who got the job and people who didn't would be nice.


I feel I will get a negative response! I was a little nervous, prepared on flight sim as much as possible unfortunately I couldn't afford £250ph + Instructor cost for sim prep along with the other costs. so I never been in a jet sim, never flew one, did my MCC 4 years ago on a steam driven king air.Word of advice if you didn't do your MCC on a jet, never flown one in a sim get some time in one if money permits. My sim partner had recently done his MCC/JOC at simtech in the sim we used on the day and had done the Ryanair assessment prep they offer the day before in the sim and it really showed and he only had minimum hours compared to my 1900TT.


In the sim itself very fast ! I was PM first, I feel that this part for me was excellent and I supported the PF 110% radio work very good very quick to pick up errors and as a team and correct them. I think its from years of teaching flying that my PM skills are good, it couldn't of gone better. Now my turn for PF, to begin with I flew it like I stolen it lol took a while to settle in. I feel that my sim partner could of been a lot more supportive in his PM role and I missed a couple of calls ! but if it helped any I nailed the ILS. As for pilot briefings ect my sim partners was excellent , god it was like he flew for BA with all his emergency briefings what we do at different speeds on RW sounded awesome I think I got everything in but was not so slick and fancy. Also at the end of my interview we shuck hands and they 'wished me well in my future career' I took it as thanks but no thanks.


I wonder in the part where they decide who gets it and who don't how much they take into account your flight school report and references and if you passed everything first time? Could it be a tipping point to if you get the job or not if your performance was not brilliant on the day but shown potential and you had outstanding reports and references.???


Suppose I will find out soon enough...................................
