Just my 2p on why you may have been rejected from the BA Cityflyer scheme whilst applying for Flybe:
I applied for the TCX scheme and attended the FTE Jerez assessment. I think they only took forward 32 people who had applied to the FTE assessment and thus just getting to that stage is pretty competitive. If you've been selected for the FTE assessment as part of the Flybe scheme then they won't also put you forward for the same selection process but for BACF - the assessment will be exactly the same for the two schemes apart from a bit in the interview which will be specific to the airline. tl;dr: no point in getting people to do the same assessment twice It definitely isn't due to them not being interested in candidates who have applied for other schemes though as FTE will keep your assessment results for 6 months and if you apply to another scheme will just use those (old) results in deciding whether to take you forward to the airline interview. I guess this may not be possible from Flybe to BACF due to the timings of selections though? Good luck :) |
Hi everyone, sorry for being quiet the last few days. I too have been invited for further assessment so I am absolutely stoked. Looking forward to meeting some of you. Thats unfortunate to hear 04J. I hope the Flybe application turns out well for you. |

Congrats to you as well, my assessment will be on the 3rd. |
I am still waiting to hear after submitting with BACF, my answers are all greyed out which from reading the above looks like a good sign! Everything crossed for an interview, although I know how few they take forward. |
Thanks Chris4 and Stretch19 too! That makes sense, just a shame to not have a shot at one at the expense of another I guess, but hopeful for Flybe, the assessment went much better than I had feared with it being my first one. Good luck to all those getting assessments! Out of curiosity are they to be held in Didsbury / Manchester? |
Hey there. Does anyone know if we can use a calculator for some of the mathematics tests? |
Yep FTE allow you to use a calculator for all the tests. I took my standard scientific calculator to their assessment which they were fine with. If you don't have one then they can provide you with one but its always easier to use one that you're used to

It is definitely hard to say. I don’t think I did poorly but I also don’t think I went amazingly so I’ll just have to wait and see. |

Not particularly. They said they compare the results to a database so we will just find out later on. Good luck with your assessment day. |

Letting everyone know that emails have been sent. Wishing the best to everyone.

Got an email invite to the final interview there too, happy days. Does anyone know what the story is with regard to commitments / contract on a mentored programme like this is? You hardly sign one before starting as you are effectively self sponsored. Suppose what I'm asking is can you take a better offer down there if it arises without any complications (contract buy-out)?
|
Bit of a long shot I know, but does anyone have an interview that is NOT on the 8th/9th Aug? Just asking as (somewhat typically) a few days before they sent out the invite a work commitment came up which means it is difficult for me to take leave on the 8th/9th. I have emailed them asking if I can swap interview day but no reply yet, will call them soon.
But if someone here would be willing to swap interview slots I would be very appreciative! |
Hi Chris, I'm on the 3rd of August. Unfortunately I can't swap for similar reasons to yourself. I'd say they'll sort you out.
|
Indeed they have :) They have been extremely helpful and accomodating, certainly makes a change compared to other flight schools
|
That’s great then. So far everything has been pretty fantastic I think. |
