Hi guys.

I've just received an invitation to perform the Psychometric Assessment online (NTR F/O).

There are any tips about it that you guys can give me?
I read something about pratice a lot, but how?
There is any sample test? I didn't found it.

Thanks a lot

APU_inop 16th Jun 2016 16:39

You have some sample questions before the attempt.

My only advice is to stay cool and calm but determined, I think I answered wrong on a majority of the questions, still I passed even though me being average to slightly below average intelligent ;-)

So nice to look forward to guys like "Obbie", can't wait...
Is anyone out there willing to share a typical 330 roster please?

Aamir320 17th Jun 2016 15:10

can anyone tell me if days off in block is realistic for a new F0 A320 or can i plan on living in doha. thinking to bring my wife or try and commute home

thanks

BR-Pilot 17th Jun 2016 18:12

Hi folks,

Anyone kind enough to PM me a Boeing FO (T7 or 787) sample roster ?
Thanks in advance.

For those dealing with the personality and cognitive tests, just google'em (you got the test names in the e-mail). There's a plenty of 'how-to-do's and sample tests online. Good luck!

Regards to all.

A320 Driver 18th Jun 2016 03:02

Guys, no one will share a roster in a place like pprune, forget it.

lfbb 18th Jun 2016 05:45

Asking about one's roster is no use, all depends on what you bid for.... Some people bid for turnaround flights to be home more often with the family, others for layovers, others night flights, etc.... So as said before, no one will post a roster here and even if someone did it would have no use at all.
Best luck.

alkor 18th Jun 2016 08:33

I heard that some guys combine their off days with their leave....so they manage to kinda commute home for a week every month???
Is this really possible? A320 fleet.

Cheers,
a

lfbb 18th Jun 2016 10:33

42 days leave every year, you can break up to blocks of 6 days, at the end of each block a day off is always granted adding up to a total of 7 days... Depending on your bid and your luck you can easily add up to 5 to 6 days before or after the leave, it is not unusual. Counting on that to live a commuting life will probably make your experience frustrating at QR, but there are people doing it.

330wanderer 20th Jun 2016 08:45

Many thanks for the candid and useful reply lfbb, it is much appreciated. Certainly looking forward to working with someone like yourself.

What is "HPL Certificate"?
They are requesting this on the FORM for advanced candidates.

Crashlanding 21st Jun 2016 17:31

HPL,human performance and limitations, if you have Jar/easa, gcaa and a few others you will not have a HPL cert.

Some licences do the HPL as a separate to the license.

Oh... Ok.

Thanks

It's a required info in the form... I put the same as my medical certificate.

Accommodation
 
What can I expect in terms of accommodation? I've been offered a non-flying role which includes company accommodation (normally a 3 bed apartment) or an allowance. The trouble is it seems that I need to choose now, without knowing what or where they will allocate me. From the research I've done I don't think I'd get much for the allowance that is on offer if I chose to go that route.

mmorel 30th Jun 2016 13:40

fly on your off days
 
Does anyone how much do they pay if you fly on your off days and is this normal?

APU_inop 30th Jun 2016 13:45

mmorel

At the moment the rosters are extremely stable. Out of many people I know there, one was called out from a standby after a year or two with the company. It's nothing like the loco's with minimum crew factor-nonsense. Of course you never know if it the prevailing conditions will last forever...

mmorel 30th Jun 2016 14:19

Thanks APU

zero/zero 30th Jun 2016 19:07

Any of the non-TR EMB190 etc guys heard anything yet? Mine shows as screened, but nothing heard. Guessing that's bad news

Fleet transfer
 
Hi Guys can anybody tell me about fleet transfer how long it will appr.take for direct entry Captains
Thank you

APU_inop 30th Jun 2016 19:43

Probably depends on from what fleet to which. I was told it will take some time...

I've just checked my Applicant page.
The status is: Interview Schedule Pending
I did the Personality Questionnaire and the Two Cognitive Tests. After that, I received an email with an approval for the next steps. I filled out all information necessary on their webpage. I'm waiting.

Hi Flyness

The Cognitive tests are like QI test, but with time to response. You must be quickly. They provide an example before you start, but is easier than the real one.
The personality test are questions about you. Be careful because some questions are asked twice or more, and you may fall in a trap - responding in different way.

I received the invite to these online test like 2 or 3 weeks after my application.

Good luck.

BoeingCP737 4th Jul 2016 14:12

Did the Online tests, received an email states Advanced candidate, filled and sent the form. Anybody knows what is the aprox time they send any info about the interview schedule?

Thanks everybody for your time and help.
