No changes at all, just a big declaration from chief pilots office that there was no connection between the crash and fatigue.
How on earth did he determine that? He must be amazing if he can figure that out. Nice of him to tell you once he knew for sure.

There isn't a single person or department within Flydubai who can diagnose or confirm if a person is or has suffered from fatigue. This is the job of an AME.

Shortly after the crash, a number of ASRs were released to RT. A large proportion of those ASRs were related to fatigue in one way or another. If the chief pilot or his office , were remotely concerned with fatigue in FZ, he (they) would have been compelled to investigate. Furthermore, if the GCAA was doing its job, it too, would have felt compelled to investigate.

I also know of pilots who have been signed off sick by an AME with fatigue. Had an AME not done so, FZ would have simply recorded the issue as sick and deducted the days from the pilots sick leave entitlement and left it at that.

They are not interested and never have been, and the fact that the 'chief pilots office' has said that fatigue played no part in the incident, demonstrates the utter contempt they have for safety.

My suggestion is to wait for the investigation to be concluded and see what comes out then. To do otherwise is pointless.

Did anyone get a response from Flydubai for further assessment after their Video interview? It has been about a month since I did my video interview and so far nothing.

Friends who inquire HR about assessments got this: " no assessments for a few months ".

They may have enough candidates from talent pool to supply them at the moment.

I got the same email few days ago. I replied to them and answered both questions in the format and i got a response saying that they will start classes post July, most likely August 2017. And the classes will be offered to the candidates from the pool they have based on when they interviewed and to the candidates with the shortest notice period to their current airlines. Anyone has a recent training gouge or materials, i can get so i can study and get a head start before I start class. Thank you.

So, if they aren't hiring why they are advertising vacancies for both TR and NTR? Apparently there are pilots doing online assessments...
