ATP that may be so, never done any research on anything Widerö, so I'll have to talk your word for it. If that is the case and they keep using it, then what's the point having their applicants taking the tests to begin with?

When I did the WF test most Norwegians had the test and I could see paperwork circulate amongst people before the actual test began so thats true. Same with the TUI, I know people having the actual test. Probably the same as Thomson UK uses? At least the description from people who's been at the ones are very similar.

FlyTCI: Du verkar ha fått detta med rekrytering lite om bakfoten... Jag förstår din frustration över att kanske inte få komma till första steget trots din erfarenhet, men det är ju inte hela bilden... Små bolag i startgroparna tjänar ofta på att anställa erfarna, och kanske lite äldre piloter av kända anledningar. Större bolag som TUIfly och Widerøe, som också nämnts i den här tråden har en annan syn på det hela. Här handlar det i första hand om att få in "rätt" folk. Erfarenheten kommer med åren, men om man inte passar in i en önskad profil är det värre. Med profil, så menar jag inte det som du tidigare skriver om att "ändra sig och lära sig flyga som TUI vill...", utan jag pratar helt och hållet om det personliga planet.
Widerøe som har en krävande operation har ju t ex INGA sim-tester överhuvudtaget. Inte ens flygrelaterade prov och dyl. Deras träningsavdelning kan lära dom flesta att flyga där om man har rätt inställning, och det är det WF letar efter. Samma med TUIfly.
Om rekryteringsavdelningen på TUIfly läser en ansökan från en person som har massa erfarenhet, men som de direkt känner inte verkar vara ha rätt personliget, då går han inte vidare. Om däremot nästa kandidat råkar ha mindre erfarenhet, men tycks besitta andra kvaliteter, då har han helt enkelt större chanser.
Kort och gott, uppfyller man grundkraven, så handlar inte allt om den som har flest timmar!
Lycka till!

Narog I am fully aware of how the game works. I did the SAS interview with 1200 hrs, all piston, back in 2000/2001.
The thing is, in the last round of TUI hiring in 2007 a friend of mine (same age) with almost identical background as mine, both personally and aviation wise, was called for the tests. He had just slightly less TT than me.
I have no problem accepting that I did not get called, I'm not even sure I could handle moving back to the Nordic winters again
. I was just curious to know if they called people with various experiences, or only younger "low time" guys/gals.

They are computerbased and you will be given a personal laptop that you get to keep after the test 
Or then again they may just be written ones and all the applicants are supposed to bring their own paper and pens which you then have to submit to the company after the tests, we need pens!
Seriously, read the thread. Everything is given all the way down to the exact searchwords, all you have to do is to copy/paste them in to the searchfield...
