Has anyone received feedback?

FLEX65 28th Jan 2019 11:12

Does this mean that only successfull applicants have been contacted?

Are you sure? They said that interviews was going to be held 25th of February

Seems so. It's just a matter of days before I will get my PFO email. At least I've got a good job so no biggies. Good luck to the others.

I wouldn’t get too excited about that sort of thing, can’t imagine AerLingus would advertise that they are running interviews in February then not do it.

If I was a betting man I’d say they probably have just found themselves with a change to their training programme and found some spare training capacity, which is very common at major airlines. Rather than waste capacity they have offered interviews to candidates that can fulfil a need slightly easier (perhaps rated or lots of jet time, that’s sort of thing).

Just me speculating, but I wouldn’t lose heart. Keep preparing yourself, practicing what you think will help with selection, and when that magic call comes you’ll be ready! Dag

Did everyone receive a confirmation email after submitting their application?

No in the past they do many different assessment days over many months.

Got a reply quite quickly saying "We acknowledge receipt of your application and will update you in due course". Make of that what you will.

I see CAE/Parc and a few others are still advertising for Type Rated guys so maybe there's a constant flow of guys jumping through the hoops.

I'd certainly like to know though because for example somebody mentioned the end of February for assessments and absolutely no way I can make that due work commitments.

I'd love to throw my name in the hat and would hate to think I missed out on the chance long term because I couldn't make the interview etc.

Probably similar to a lot of you guys. Would appreciate any updates as you might get them.

Cheers and good luck to everyone!!!

Did you get a reply straight away? I also emailed 3 days ago but I’ve received nothing.

There have been a very limited number of DEP interviews in the past 2 wks to fill a few spaces that were left over from the 2018 process. There are A320 Contractor interviews taking place this/nxt week. There are 5 or 6 full wks of interviews arranged from late February to early April. They are still reviewing thousands of video interviews and tests. Give it two weeks or so and they'll be in touch.

I´ve just been to the assessment as a contractor this week. We were 8 guys and only 1 guy made it to the sim....
The day after only 2 out of 8 made it to the sim. No feed back what so ever as Aer Lingus make the agency call you.

Not impressed to be honest.

Any info about the process? Tech questions/hr questions,group exercises, sim exercises, etc?
Seems like Wizz air assessments. From 14 candidates a friend told me, only 3-4 went to sim and 1-2 passed.

They're still grading thousands of videos and assessments. Invites will start to go out in the next 10 days I believe. They have a big demand for pilots, the roadshow will be to sweep any pilots that didn't apply the last time in to the next process. There'll be a lot of new applicants I'd expect with Norwegian and Germania leading the charge!!

A320LGW 6th Feb 2019 09:58

Will there be a presentation or is it just an information stand?

a320pilot2017 7th Feb 2019 06:41

Hi everyone, I have been invited to go to Dublin for the assessment in the 12th of this month. Any ideas as to what to prepare regarding technical stuff? thanks

shamrocky 7th Feb 2019 14:50

The roadshow is a presentation/q & a for about an hour with HR and Chief Instructors.

I understand the rules around contractors supplied by an agency(stipulated by the agency) set out that the agency are the point of contact with the pilot not the airline.
If you applied as an individual rather than through a crew supplier, I think you would have been contacted by AL.

Best wishes in achieving a position of your choice.
