I have many French friends in Ryanair. I doubt this is true and merely just a reason people are using for not getting the call. It's a lottery there's nothing you can do but sit and wait or look for other options.

It's just a rumor, because i know a lot of french friends from OAA with first time passes and everything that were refused. It's just an assumption. We don't know any reason anyway

Stubentor,

So that's how they justify their failures?…. :hmm:

Yeah whatever

Hi,

Which e-mail did you use ?
I can't find it. Anyway, regarding your application, you only used CAE website, right ?
Because I've applied one year and a half ago to the CAE website pilot careers and still no news, I can only update my profile which I do monthly.

Just for your information, few guys that I know and are French, have been hired by Ryanair, so well, I can't believe on the nationality reason.

The cadets I see in the crewroom are from all nationalities, including Irish and French.

I suspect the proportion of various nationalities who get through the assessment days is in line with the proportions of nationalities who apply.

If there has been a shift in recruitment, it may be a reflection of the expansion of the company in particular parts of Europe and a desire to staff certain bases with certain nationalities.

Maybe that's the problem. "I have first time passes so will definitely get the job" and then Ryanair HR sniff out an attitude issue in the interview.

Hi everyone

What to expect from the phone interview after RYR cv approval?

Hi,
It will be the same questions + 1 or 2 about your licence but nothing to be afraid of as it has already been said.

Some body in the Italian forum said that a FR capt told him that Ryanair is going to ask 20-25k euro on top of the 28k already needed for the TR course. Could this be true???

I've submitted my application but the date of my last flight was more than 6 months ago. So I'm going flying tomorrow.

If I update my application with the new data, will this then be logged, or should I withdraw my application and then leave it a day before re-applying?

Just update your file and it is more than enough! Their system is smart enough to see that you keep your profile active.
I update my own profile after each flight and/or additional training completed (JOC, aerobatic,...)
At the end it is only a lottery...

The French have stricter labour and tax laws, are more unionised and are more prone to go on strike than any other nationality, hence Ryanair don't like them.

Good evening all

I was wondering if anyone could enlighten me on what to expect during the telephone interview now that I have submitted my CV to CAE.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi everyone

I have a problem with CAE form. When I want to insert dates (Date of birth, passport expiration date...) I click on a calendar icon and at the bottom it reads ,,today is sun, 26 jan 3914,,. Day and month are correct but year is always wrong 3914. I tried to ask CAE but they didn't respond. Anyone has the same problem? What should I do about it?

Thanks

You can re-write 2014 instead of 3914... There is only one that you need to click until you reach the good year!
I did it few days ago...

what to expect from the phone call after? tech questions? general questions? :hmm:

re: phone call.. if you looked over the thread youd find your answer, but to help you out.. the phonecall from what i remember is pretty much:

-do you have first time passes in ATPL exams and IR/CPL?
-How many hours PIC/total?
-Last aircraft flight ME? (must be one hour logged in last 6 months)
-Rating expiry dates?
-Valid EU passport?

So theres nothing to prepare for, no tech or HR questions at all... its just a screening process.

assessmet 2014
 

does anyone here knows how the assessment has been made recently? questions/ simulator... might have changed during last months...:confused:

Does any one know if Ryan Air take in consideration pilots how are already type rated on B737 and flown the classic?

No, as stated on their website there is (currently) no application procedure for experienced fo's.

From the pilot hiring page:
"Please note we are not accepting applications for experienced First Officers at this time"

I think depends if the type is EASA of FAA...:rolleyes:

Does the flight time in the last 6 months have to be in a ME aircraft?

In the initial 'request for CV' email it did not specify an aircraft class type.

Flight in the last 6 months
 

In the second mail is specified! "(single or multi engine)"

Phone interview
 

Anyone waiting for the phone interview!?

Yes I am waiting

@Fanor and @micro burst

when did you guys received this first email? and when applied in CAE??

thank you!!

First email asking for cv 2 weeks ago, and then the email saying
It had been sent to Ryanair a week ago. Wha about you?

RYR
 

Hi Fanor,

Did you get a feedback from RYR? In my case, they sent my CV to RYR for approval and I got the answer 3 days after (negative for me). So if you are still waiting, I guess it's on the good way :)

I havent received any email at all...

Im a bit confused though..

Is it first an phone call and then the email or you guys have got this first email straight without phone call???

I applied at the end of December so I guess I still have a long cue in front of me!!

Good luck to all!

The first contact is an email by CAE, when you sent your CV another mail by CAE. Your CV is sent to FR for approval. If FR accept your CV, you will receive another mail whit informations for the phone interview

@flying_jipp

No answer does equal good news. Hopefully it will be good news.

@Fieldins @Fanor

Thanks for the Info!!

Quick question: what do they want when asked "employee/academic reference" ?

A signed and dated character reference letter (with contact details) by a former employer and/or one from your last school.
basically just a description from said people how they perceived you during their interactions with you.

hello everyone

just to be sure: what do they want when asked about the final report from FTO to bring to the assesment? I did my training in different school and is quite hard to get that in time :ugh:

Hi guys, can I ask what kind of time scale you have from the telephone interview to your sim assessment? Are we talking days, weeks or months in your cases? Thanks for the help.

Hi

I had my telephone screening yesterday and the sim assessment and interview next week. So everything happens fast.

2 weeks for me!

Can you log the sim assessment in your log book regardless of whether you have failed or passed?
