Anyone else just get an offer from easyjet?

Still waiting :/ did you hear today? What you get offered?

From L3 or CAE?

I got offered route 3 earlier with L3. Wanted route 1/2 but still happy. Is route 3 still a guaranteed job at the end of training with easyJet if the course goes well?

Well done to everyone recently passing assessments and receiving offers

Earlier in this thread I was informed the initial application consists of open-ended questions requiring university personal statement style answers. Upon opening an application with CAE I cannot see any questions of this sort? Is it just a CV upload along with answering the tick box general questions? Thanks

@Hpinder787 route 3 is the easyJet tagged ATPL so you’re still given the conditional job offer if you pass training. Route 3 shouldn’t be seen as a negative, you’re still getting an ATPL and a first officer position, congrats!

Quite a few people seem to be mate so don’t stress, got route one so well happy!

My apologies, I said that in line with L3' application process.

That’s fine, I appreciate your help! I figured they would of been similar but it appears not. Has anyone here applied with CAE?

congratulations mate well done. Can I ask when you did your 2nd day?

Course mate, I did it on the 7th of March I think.

For any new readers, we have an EZMP30/31/32 group set up on Facebook

Cheers mate. I was a few weeks after that so I'll likely have to wait a little longer

Day 2 interview
 

Hi All,

Anyone have attended day two and can share what sort of questions were they asked during the interview. Also, how many question we can expect to be asked? I know its roughly half an hour interview.

Cheers.

Anybody on EZMP29?
Is there a group available somewhere?

How do you know which group you’re in??

You get told when you're enrolled on a course

Has anyone who did their assessment with CAE, hear back from them about route allocation yet?

First off, congratulations on passing day 1 which I'm assuming you have :)

I have not attended day 2 yet hence the delay in response, hoping that someone who has would answer this.

From many different sources, such as cadet blogs, the interview will consist of general questions such as why you want to be a pilot and will also consist of competency questions to assess some of the key skills such as leadership.

If you are applying through L3 CTS, then this page will tell you what the key points are that the assessor will be looking for in the interview:

Also, may I ask, what date you're attending day 2 if you are applying through L3?

Key points:

• L3 CTS have a page dedicated on what they are looking for
• Cadet blogs provide a great insight into what to expect through their experience.

Hi everyone
Do you know of what consist the easyJet online assessment ? I am attending day 2 for Generation easyJet Pilot Training Pogramme
Thanks a lot

It’s just some basic personality questions, you can’t really prepare for them just answer them honestly and you’ll be fine

Hello,

I've just done this assessment and its questions based on your personality as identified above.

I would however, search for Cut-e Shapes on youtube and a video that explains how the test works will come up so that you can become familiar with it.

May I ask, what date is your date 2?

I also recommend using a flight simulator with a joystick. This may help with flying through the boxes and deviation indicator.[/QUOTE]


Hi I have my assessment with cae on the 9th what simulator would you recommend to train on . Hoping to buy my joystick this week

Good luck! :)

From the Terms and Endearment thread:

what kind of impact will this have on easyjet starters??

It means instead of spending a year employed by CTC Fliexicrew and being contracted out to easyJet, you will join on a permanent contract as a SO for two years. Presumably that means pension, insurance, sick pay, holiday pay and all other benefits of a permanent contract are included from day one. Its a real positive step that gives job security in the crucial early years of your career, especially if you have a large loan to pay back.

This i believe has come about due to negotiations between ezy's BALPA representatives and ezy management. I think the decision reflects well on both parties.

Oh sweet that sounds a lot better than doing flexicrew then. So now it will be a set salary per year rather than the hourly rate like before? Does this apply for L3 CTS easyjet contracts too?

Yes the old L3 CTS (Formally CTC) offer was to be employed by a crew outsourcing company called CTC Fliexicrew (Loads of details if you search the forum). You were contracted out for 12 months, at which point you had an interview with your Base Captain to see if you were fit for permanent employment. I believe a similar set up was present with cadets joining from CAE Oxford too.

Right okay makes sense. Does this mean we will now be employed by easyjet from the start or do we still have a year being employed by l3? Cheers for the help!

Thank you for the information!

Hello,

I used Microsoft Flight Simulator X to become familiar with using a joystick.

Any decent flight simulator such as X-plane or Prepar3D should be fine.

Good luck!

Anyone going to day 2 on the 1st May?

Thank you!

As the program is closed temporarily, I believe the last day 2 assessments are 1, 2 and 3rd of May for this session.

Good luck :)

Hi all,

Anyone going to day 2 on the 2nd of May?

Good Luck!

I'm going to day 2 on the 1st May.

Thank you! Best of Luck to you too!

Shame we're not on the same day, look forward to hearing how you get on!

L3 easyJet MPL next opening
 

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know when L3 easyJet MPL is expected to open again?
I have passed Day 1 and would prefer to delay my Day 2 for next opening however, if it will take longer than a year, my Day 1 results will be invalid.
Anyone knows if this has happened before and if so how long it took them to re-open again?

Cheers!

Congratulations first of all!

It could be anyone's guess really on when they open again however, since its "temporarily" closed, this might suggest that it'll open perhaps later this year but of course, this is just a guess. As always, you can call L3's supportive pilot careers team and perhaps they could give you a better idea.

In my observations, the program opened for applications again in April 2017, with a closure date around the time when CTC was re branded as L3 CTS. This closure date was pushed back to December 2017 and then again for June 2018. Of course, easyJet closed the program earlier in April 2018. With CAE still open for applications, and L3 CTS being the favourable choice of ATO by easyJet, I suggest that we could see the program open well within 1 year - again, educated guess.

I wish everyone who's going to the day 2 assessments the next couple of days the very best of luck!
