Good evening everyone. I have been late for this years selection, but I am going to try next year. I'm spanish, so I don't meet the requierment to "have the right to live and work in the UK without sponsorship." I am wondering if anyone that is not a UK citizen has found a way around this issue. Maybe by obtaining some sort of work visa? Do non UK citizens even have a chance in succeeding in the selection process? Sorry for my ignorance and thanks in advance! Wish you all luck with your current applications!

Change of flight school
Does anyone know if its possible to change flight school at the end of the process? I know they both have their own assessment process but assume they are very similar. Was wondering if I'm now tied to a particular one 🤔

Focus on the tests and worry about that at the end. If you can change, then great. If you can't change and you're ok with it then live with it. If you can't change and you're not ok with it then you'll have to pull out.
Whichever way, you're going to get the experience and practice so if it is a deal breaker, then next year you'll know what to do and you've got a heads up on the tests too

Damn some of those Skyborne tests are not easy! felt like the dots one was a complete guessing game! Genuinely not sure what that game is testing for hahaha! All the best to those taking their assessments over the next week

The math one where we chose true, false or not enough information was the worst for me. I cannot confidently say I got any correct. Also some of those personality choices were wild.

What to bring: To help us maintain safety and security at British Airways, you
must bring your passport and the other documents with you to confirm your right
to fly, identity and address, proof of right to live and work in the UK and your
National Insurance Number (if available). You will also need to provide hard
copies of your GCSE exam results.”

FTE assessment date 06/06
Anyone attending on the Thurs for FTE assessment? Will be travelling down from Nottingham so looking for a hotel and car parking the night before. Would be good to meet a friendly face beforehand

Does anybody know, from previous experience, how long it takes Skyborne/BA to get back to your post completion of the assessments? I haven't completed them yet, just curious.

Just finished my Skyborne online assessments. Definitely doubting my performance on some of them... Would love to be added to the whatsapp group chat, though! If one of the admins could DM me, I'll send you my number. Would like to hear about how everyone is getting along.

FTE Jerez Group Chat
Is there an FTE group chat going? If not I'll make one as it'll be handy for queries and getting to know people before heading down to Waterside next week.
