I have just received an email for a second personality test (2 tests).

3,500 was what I heard from one of the assessors.

Anyone asked to complete more online tests?

Any idea about final numbers they are looking for Direct entry?

I'm wondering how many phases this process has. Anyone knows?

It will be interesting to know the profile of guys that receive email for second personnality test.

Frozen ATPL
MCC & JOC
260TT

when you completed the personality tests did you get any notification or just as soon as you finished the two you just exited??

Frozen ATPL
MCC & JOC
220TT

Just exited

Anyone with a negative replay?

any negative feedback at all from anyone after completing the initial online assesment?

If you didn't get invited for the second set of tests, you weren't considered. You'll get your PFO in a few days/weeks.

That's how it went last year at least. I imagine they have a delay to keep their options open? I doubt they need to, with 3500 applications.

Aer Lingus Direct entry
 

I have just received an email

"Dear Erky Thank you for your application for the role of Direct Entry Pilots. Unfortunately we must inform you that on this occasion your application is unsuccessful. We would like to thank you for your interest in Aer Lingus and wish you every success in your future career. Yours Sincerely The Aer Lingus Recruitment Team"

No reason stated!!

We will see how equal opportunities works!! Lets see how many pilots from other nations they will hire?

Good luck to everyone who is on second stage.

Got the same mail. Like always. :)

Wrong and wrong, if you didn't receive yet your TFO is because they still looking, so yes we stay opting for those positions, and applicants is half of the figure you mention as far as I'm aware from good source. So guys keep positivie and your fingers crossed! :)

Did you get the second email?

P06T
This was my second email.

@spaflyer ,

What is your sources saying on amount of candidates that applied? Do you know how many they are looking for? And more importantly how many more stages there is , I was told 7 stages from a half reliable source!!

Same email as Erky

Custard pie email for me as well, oh well choke it down, lick my lips, smile sweetly and wait patiently for the next one.

Good luck to those still in the race.

Dear Applicant,

Thank you for your application for the role of Direct Entry Pilot.

We would like to inform you that you have passed the initial screening phase and we will be reviewing your full application over the coming months.

When we advertised we stated we would be recruiting for a panel of Direct Entry Pilots in January and February 2017. We may invite you to participate in the next stage of the selection process during that time.

We would like to thank you for your continued interest in Aer Lingus.

So next stage! :)

Same email! Good luck

Did you do the online personality tests?

Same email??? but why not the next test??? any idea??

If you received this email then you already had submitted the aptitude and personality tests.
So there aren't anymore tests.

ehm but i never made the test!

In that case don't worry - you won't be invited.

The first initial test had both, although some people received some extra.

ah ok..in my first test i made 7 exercises..

Hello Guys..

Somehow I passed the online assessment and it says I might be invited for the next stage in Jan Or Feb !!

Does anyone have any idea about the next step?

I've read somewhere that there will be a next round of online tests in Dublin :( Please tell me that's not true............

I got the same email, all the best to everyone 🍀!

Hey guys ! I got the positive e-mail, but no second test. What is PFO/TFO by the way ?

Sigma now looking A320 rated pilots for Aer lingus contract. Whats going on in this company??????

Same crap every time from AL , waste peoples time , then hire contractors .

Evening all. Does anybody have any solid info as to whether those who received this mail can actually expect to have any positive come back before January/February, or is it just lead balloon material ? I'm seeing conflicting opinions on here and don't know what to think/expect.

I concur. Keep external mice sales up too...

I went through the selection last year, done the online test throughout September/October then I had an interview at the very end of November, in January I got the email that I was in the holding pool. Got the call in May and will be starting my type soon.. must be slightly different this year but hang in there. Best of luck lads

Hi cossie, did you already have a typerating on a320 or also an ab initio?

No 320 Type but at the time of the interview i had 400 hours multicrew.

I had the same mail with the January February things, but I still believe it's a way to say "we keep your cv and we will see later"

I just hope i'm wrong !

anyone got an invitation by now ?
