Does anybody have an idea of the relative timescale following the selection days in July for further selection (approximate dates of interviews, offers, etc) - perhaps based off previous cadetship campaigns? I’m away for the summer so just trying to work out some “what if” scenarios in my head! |

Thanks a lot for this info. Any chance you remember (if they told you) how much the allowance was?
Cheers. |
Awesome scheme, full credit to Aer Lingus for running this fully funded again. I imagine it will be extremely competitive, which in a way shows how removing financial barriers gives airlines a much larger pool to choose from. Flying a mix of short haul and trans-atlantic on the A321-LR's would be one of the best pilot jobs in Europe IMO.

The job sounds incredible and its brilliant to see a resurgence in sponsored programs - or one at least. Of course I want to apply - but I am in my last year of college in the UK, which means I will have achieved the educational requirements, but not by late July...
I will find out how I've done in August on results day of course - is this too late? I do of course have predicted grades and can evidence that I should have no problem achieving the minimum. Can anyone yield any pointers on this? Is anyone applying in the same situation? If the information about further interviews is correct then I would probably have my grades by then, officially. |

Does anyone know if you are allowed to accompany your CV with a Cover Letter?

The allowance was €200 per month. In previous years; I.e €200 beer money. Food in Jerez is included etc so nothing to pay out for.

Well they've stated that training begins in November and first round of interviews are late July. I imagine they'd want to give out offers to the lucky few by mid-September at the latest to allow for notice periods. In previous year I believe there has been a further interview and medical in Dublin after the first interviews, so I guess that would be in August. All guesswork on my part though....
|
It does look to be an excellent programme, though I wonder what their view towards people with three month notice periods would be?

I am always inclined to provide a covering letter - but not sure if they'd think negatively of it if it is not explicitly asked for? |
I believe the consensus reached in the 2017 scheme thread was that only a CV was required. See https://www.pprune.org/interviews-jo...ml#post9430868
|
I sent a covering letter, a standard CV for a no-experience scheme seems a little redundant past meeting the basic criteria, I would’ve thought they’d want to know your motivations first and foremost. :)
|
I don't suppose anyone who has either applied in the past can shed some light on what the online assesments are ? I seen somebody mention COMPAS. I have interviewed for another scheme with Jerez but done the FTE PILAPT tests (which I to this day think are not accurate...). I'll have a look at compas in the mean while!
|
I had a cover letter the last time round and it was on the interviewer's desk along with my CV at the final interview rounds. i can also confirm it was referred to, so make sure it's coherent and you actually can prove whatever it is you're going to write on it. |
Did anyone else not get an acknowledgment or confirmation email when they applied? I didn't see any 'error' message that others are talking about, but it says 'application received' on the portal!

I actually re-applied to this scheme and got an email the second time round. They attached two files to the email: the application summary and CV. However, the CV they attached is about 200 bytes big and can't be opened. :ugh:

After going to Pilot Careers Live at Heathrow a couple of weeks ago, I was fairly disillusioned with the financial side of things (apart from the RAF). However, this seems like a step in the right direction; doing my application now!

Does anyone know what the implications of Brexit might be for Brits applying for this programme?
The application specifies that applicants be "eligible to live and work permanently in the EU" |
What can I expect after finishing this programme?
Hello everyone I’m just wondering what can I expect after finishing this programme and obtaining A320 type rating? How long will I have to work for them? 3,5 or maybe10 years? |
