Flight Training Europe/CityJet Cadet Pilot Programme
 

Has anyone else applied for this programme?

Good luck to everyone who has :)

Hi Joffyh!

I've also applied! I can't wait foe the email stating if we're on for the next stage or not...!

Hopefully see you there ;)

Yeah I know what you mean! When did you send your answers?

I sent it the 11th of february.

Hi guys,

I applied too. I sent my answers in last week and I am waiting to hear about the next stage. Did any of you guys hear back from them?

Best of luck :ok:

DGM

I sent mine last week too. As Alann says he sent his answers back in February it would seem they're putting several cadets through at different times, when I applied for the scheme it said applications opened in March.

I'm still waiting to hear back from them, stage three is getting closer!

Alann am I right in thinking you applied for the CityFlyer scheme?
BA CityFlyer/Jerez Training Scheme

Hi Joffyh!

I meant March! My mistake!! :p

I actually applied to the cityjet scheme!

Oh OK well that makes sense

Sorry small mistake there :), I meant to say did you apply to CityFlyer as well as this CityJet programme?

I've applied to, I wonder when FTE will get back??

Did anyone get a mail today? I was invited for Phase 3 1th of April.

I'm still waiting
 

I sent my stage 2 on March the 7th and am still waiting on a reply. Makes you wonder if it got through and all...

I received my confirmation for stage 3 today and am over the moon, time to brush up on my mathematics :ok:

<W-M>

I'm still waiting too XH588 :\

Can I ask the guys who got through what FTE/CityJet have said is involved at stage 3?

Success
 

Success. I have been accepted for phase 3.

I got through too, can't believe it. Very nervous all of a sudden :sad: If interviews and aptitude tests are next week, anyone have any idea what might be in store at stage 4 for those who are successful?

I'm going up on Friday 4th, anyone else for this date? Good luck :)

Hey guys, as I've already got a place in FTE, I will only need to do the interview. I will be in 3rd of April. Anyone else? The first interview, as far as I know, is a personality based interview rather than a technical one. I was told that there is a second and final interview at stage 4, but whether this includes a sim-check I'm unaware of.

Good luck!:ok:

Hi guys!!

I'm accepted too, I'll be in London on the 4th of April at 9AM!

See you there Joffyh!

Best of luck for everybody.

Alann

Well I had to turn it down since Im doing my military service in kabul the selected dates. Too bad, but I guess there will be another round soon :)

Anyone on the course before the 3rd of April?

Hi All,

I am going to Phase 3 on Friday at 9 am!

best of luck!

Alann I've got mine at 12:30 on Friday so I don't know if I will be seeing you.

Good luck to yourself and everyone else :ok:

Hey guys, just to clarify...

Are most of you alrady accepted to FTE? For people that will go through phase 3 interview... how are you preparing?

Cheers

I haven't been accepted to FTE. I can't speak for anyone else that has applied but it would some people have been.

Hey guys, anybody else going down on the 3rd April???? Also do you know wat they mite be expecting from the interview, EG - Technical, or just a personality assessment??

What can you guys tell me about the package cityjet has to offer? its a little difficult to find the relevant information.

Cheers and good luck with selection to all those involved :ok:

What did everyone think of the Interview/tests?

Alison was very nice and easy to talk to/ be interviewed by.

I think (as always) I could have given more in the Interview, lots of good things I could have added but didnt!

Good luck to everyone for the next Phase!

Snap, why is it, as soon as you walk out of the interview room, you think of something amazing to say, but by that time its too late....

It was a very relaxed interview, and yes, Alison was very welcoming.
Good luck to all that applied!!!

Interview was very relaxed! Mine took about 50-55 minutes. Alison did mention that it will take 1.5 to 2 weeks before anyone gets an answer.

Has anyone applied to the Flybe scheme with FTE?

Good Luck :)

Yes I applied for the flybe scheme however was turned down.... :ugh:


Good luck guys :ok:

Hey guys,

Does anyone actually know what kind of deal successful cadets will get? What is the current starting salary for CityJet cadets?

For Phase 4, the airline deals with the interview. I can imagine it's 2 or 3 Captain/HR member mixed panel that will grill ya with questions!

Hi guys,

A bit of a heads up for stage 4 (if it's anything like the phase 4 i went through with the City Flyer scheme) is that it's on person from HR and we had the Ops manager/piloty person, and yes, it was a one hour grilling - drink the one glass of water slowly or you'll run out in the first 15 mins!!!

There were lots of questions about why you joined that scheme in particular, what you've already done to further your career as a pilot, why you would make a good F/O, lots of competancy based questions so make sure you've got examples at the ready for these sorts of scenarios:

- Excellent customer service
- A time when you have stood up to a senior member of staff
- A time when your authority has been challenged
- A time when you have been part of a team, not necessarily the leader

.....etc etc etc

Make sure these examples are on the tip of your tongue, but if you can't recall anything, tell them you'd like a minute to compose your answer and then come out with it, no point in fluffing your interview for the sake of 30 seconds.

hope that helps! best of luck to you all and hope to see you in the sunny south of Spain very soon.

Chile

Thanks for the description chile! I'm pleased to say I'm through to the final phase of this selection. Has anyone else heard anything from FTE/Cityjet?

Good luck!

I'm through too, what day did they ask you to go on?

Im down on the 22nd April.

Congratulations guys, I have not yet heared anything - fingers crossed anyway.

Good Luck :ok:

Good to hear guys! Good luck for anyone who hasn't heard anything yet. I've got the interview the 21st, very early in the morning!

I think 30 applicants were interviewed. There are 10 places for cityjet cadets apparently. 1/3 of a chance basically, not bad!

It's not looking too bright for CityJet though! Not looking too bright for any airline now though :eek:

//D

Cityjet
 

Good luck guys!

I have my final interview on the 21st at 1.30!

Dondon- Do you mean 30 people were interviewed at phase 3?

If so, do you mean that ALL 30 people got through to the final phase 4??

Martyn

30 people were invited to phase 3 based on their answers to the questions at phase 2. The number of people to get through to phase 4 all depends on their results/performance at phase 3.

I was at phase 3 and still waiting to hear back...

Sorry if I didn't make it clear enough.

I was told that 30 people were interviewed at phase 3. I do not know how many of us have made it through to phase 4. I think that whoever "ticked all the boxes" will be given a chance to present themselves to the airline at phase 4. Can anyone else confirm this?

Dondon

Just foun city jet cadet sponsorship . So i am guessing i have missed it completely? How often are they taking on?
