Look guys I know a lot has been said on this thread, re- the good, the bad and the ugly of Oman Air. Be it for better or for worse, but I believe a lot of the negative has been from outsiders, who perhaps dont have the full handle on the situation in WY itself!!!

Anyhow, for the genuinely interested guys and gals, its basically down to the following:

The interview process is straight forward. Personal questions as to work experience, family life, how you'd adapt to life in the ME, more importantly how would YOUR spouse adapt!!! They are basically looking for competent air crew who are not "mavericks", who wanna come in and change the company "for the better", rather people who will do the job they're getting paid for and go home and enjoy life and Muscat!!:ok:

Technical questions are from the limitations section in VOL1, recall items from QRH, and some questions from FCTM.

Simulator, visual circuit, just to ease you in, then an engine failure at or above V1, followed by an approach, missed approach and vectors back to land. Thats it!!!
If there is time on hand, skippers who have performed well, may getan A/C Transfer bus failure or BAT Bus failure to see how they perform under pressure.........

Good luck to all...................:D

The problem is that you might not be able to solve the problem.
But then I am not aware there is a psychometric test involved in the selection process for expats with Oman Air.

Oman Air Assessment
 
I have a B737 Captain "SIM" scheduled in Gatwick in June. Does anyone have a detailed briefing on what to expect in the sim and interview.

Giv 28th May 2009 08:03

In Fact is if you look thru this whole thread you seem to be the only one complaining about WY and from what I can see you currently work for oman air especially when you asked for a network in Oman to get onto VOIP in a previous thread. So mate if you don't like WY either shutup or

GTW Assessment
 
Just finished the GTW screening. Very straight forward/ friendly.
Two Oman Air staff, a check airman and an HR person.
Met briefly at the hotel for a short personal introduction. Flying history,
why do you want to work for Oman Air stuff.
Then off to Oxford where the check Capt conducted a group brief oral exam. Panel style with all three candidates asked questions consequetively.
Know the memory items w/o BS. Then a few basic systems and ATP questions.
Sim: one visual circuit. Then a T/O, V-1 cut to SE NPA. Technique of your choice. I used LNAV/VNAV. This to a MA. Followed by a SE ILS. Done.
Pretty basic.
But know the profiles and the callouts. Cold. Standard Boeing.
Was told afterwards that of the 27 candidates screened that week, 7 passed. Reason being that with the large number of very low time FOs, that Oman Air needs Capts with above average handling and command skills.

Most of the existing ATR crews will be trained on it.

omg
 
so anyone know when the e-170 are due? ta just curious.

ps; in fact is, i disagree with people asking you to shut up, free yourself and speak your mind... just use a spell and grammer check because reading you is arduous! cheers

in FACT is 24th Jul 2009 13:44

"flaps210 & MAKAVELI320",

this one of example from insider's in Oman Air send to my PM I got 9 PM's from different people, thing's goes not as smooth as people think in WY, the expat's are affraid to post the truth, only some of expat's (sucker's) that desparate no choice posted the good's thing's but there is bad thing's happen there and have to be informed to all, :ugh:

This rostering will go on as long as that dmo is still there, they re finally looking to replace him. But he's not the only management problem and management problems are going on since ages in WY. But i do like the company and there are also good pilots in WY, i agree that some people should be stopped but then again the examinors are scared to stop people. Well if you join us, good luck and don't hesitate if you have questions

SkyRed1 24th Jul 2009 14:00

Oman Air is a very "decent" airline",most of the personnel are very curteous,even the fleet Captains,
I was offered job there 2 years ago but turned it down,I understand from inside sources that the expats on the ATR will not be rated on Embraers,effectively WY want all National Crews within 24 months and are training cadets at this time.
Oman Air is a very strong company and is expanding at an acceptable pace given the world markets and I wish WY all the best in the future.Having lived in Muscat its certainly a nice place,very diverse,cultural,very tollerant and safe,I wish all those coming to Oman all the best.

flaps210 27th Jul 2009 08:43

all the best for those of you COMING to oman!!! humm the word cat and bag come to mind!lol
in fact is! i agree that oman air has its down sides but hey which airline doesnt! you just learn to take the ups with the downs and get on with life dude!
all the best:}
