Their don't reply to the email despite a huge com via social media.
Some students there says that they are very slow to deal with the modular students unfortunately..

I’d try to reach them directly via Messenger rather than email. Or just call’em, they seem to be pretty responsive to the phone calls.

The flight school you’re from is important to some companies, but Ryanair absolutely is not one of them. The RYR Mentored program always felt like a waste of money to me.

They appear to not really care that much, about where you did your training etc. I’ve seen plenty of people get invited for their assessment. Ranging from the most obscure and unknown flightschools, to having done their training at 10 different places, you name it.

Don’t overthink it, get a cplmeir with a flightschool where you’re comfortable.

IMO; Where it gets important for successfull airline assessments; a good MCC and a sim prep for the specific assessment profile. That’s what’s being judges in the end.

Also, don’t hyperfocus on technical skills and knowledge. The non technical part of the interview is equally important. Show that you can be a good coworker.

After a few hrs almost everybody will be able to fly the operation, but not everybody will be able to be a good coworker.

Quick question on this; after the studies and if you are accepted by Ryanair, is the type rating still self funded (I read something about 30.000€?), or does Ryanair fund that?

You are clearly not up to date with the forthcoming terms. Not everyone has the 30k to splash out on the type rating. The Mentored Scheme now makes ALL the difference (if FR is the goal)

For now yes, but there are changes coming.

interesting, thanks. Do you know what kind of changes and an indication of when that will happen?

edit: Disregard, found your other post on the “Free Ryanair TR” topic. Thanks.

Well, obviously... since the post is from january and the RYR mentored news was published in february

Anyhow, this new proposed scheme gives you your first job a chance of securing your first job without paying upfront. So if the course price stays the same, it seems like a good deal. Bartolini's instruction is reputable, scheduling and communication... not so much
