Hello, I had an acknowledgement of my application for DEC in 24 hours, notification of being shortlisted within 48 hours and offered an interview within 7 days.

I haven't been put through the mill yet so can't tell you what you can expect when you're there. Which is why I've come on PPRUNE for the first time in ages to try and find out Good luck.

Really appreciate the intel Wiz. As usual ur posts are hugely informative. Makes more sense now.
Of course, it would be stupid to under rate the task at hand. How do you reckon one prepare for the interview though. The sims/tech quiz being of particular interest.
Thanks in advance.

Wiz....is it at all possible(of course ALL is possible, but other than that!), that you fly a boeing currently and duing the DEC interview you get offered a bus?
Wouldn't that increase the training time dramatically.
And i recall u mention 4 months somewhere. I know of legacy carriers who churn out a captain in 3 months flat. From scratch to match. And this, when the driver ain't rated on type.
Don't u think the time frame for a TR DEC would be shorter. Like i said earlier, just my thoughts. Thx for helping.

For a DEC, appart from convincing them that you fit the Emirates Model, you gotta convince them that you will have a full knowledge of OMA/C and FCOM by the time you do your final line check... at least 3 Months so no panic - but you have to read the books...

Question fail during training

Hello guys, anyone knows the average rate of failings during training for DEC in EK?
I´ve been told that is high!
Did they get the chance to stay as F/O?
Best regards

expecting the Emirates assessment around May/June and checking the Preparation possibilities. Test consists of Capacity tests and Team exercises obviously before you've to do the Simulator. Any idea for some Preparation possibilities?

Thx,

I've found this link: ATTC Europe

Any experiences with such ATTC trainings?

I think if it works it's worth to do this course but I would prefer a few reliable information before investing money and time. The Skytest-Software is known as useful mean of preparation for ATC-Testings in Swiss, a friend of mine used it for his Skyguide (Swiss ATC), but don't know their relation to the flying group.
