Go back a couple of pages in the thread. There is a very detailed account of what to expect from the interview. I can confirm it is spot on. It was a very friendly and professional selection process.
Enjoy the trip.
Cheers

I heard that those attending the assessments in mid / late November '09 were the final batch (of the initial tranche) of interviewees... and that it was shortly after these folks had been through the mill that FlyDubai made provisional offers to those whom had passed.
Now quite whether those from that initial tranche, i.e. who've been made offers, will actually accept and / or choose to turn-up in Dubai, when the call-up is made (any time between Feb'09 and Dec'09), is anybody's guess?
One would imagine that any shortfall in the level of take-up might then prompt further recruitment.
That said, the world is seemingly awash with pilots at the moment and there's a lot a very capable lads & lasses out there on the market... so airlines do have an unusually well stocked pool in which to fish.
We're living in interesting times!

Finally you get fat up with India, and like to joint FlyDubai, so how about your S...P Jet and the Chief Pilot I think he leave also to joint WY
I told you no one can live more than 2 year in incredible .......

In fact is--- Thanks for your concern. I am still at Spicejet and exploring options does not necessarily indicate I am fed up with India or Spicejet. Our Chief Pilot, Jack Ekl is now the VP of Flight Ops. My friend, people make decisions that are suitable for their current circumstances. If I were to leave Spicejet, it would not be because of being fed up. It would be mainly for better stability and long term employment due to the current economic situation in India and elsewhere as it relates to the airlines. Spicejet continues to be a good place to work. The main concern is the long term viability of the airline. I don't have all the answers but it does appear that the airline is better prepared to weather the current storm.

Hi!
Manillaorbust: Hopefully, you will be "saved" by Delta and won't get furloughed, when the merger is announced.
I actually don't know anything, but there are some guys on other boards who seem to think it's a done deal.

For the moment they have (as far as i know) only being recruiting DEC from the boeing.But think it's different regarding F/O's.Think they want experienced F/O's(2500hrs +) but from various background.Should be good chances for upgrade because of the planned expansion.Heard they have set a start-up date to 9th June.

flymanuel,
Very good luck to you. It is good to know that 737 type and experience may not be an absolute requirement to get interviewed - although it probably helps a lot.
