Thanks for the useful info you and furqanstriker has given to us so far.
Seems a bit unusual if CX scaled down the COMPASS test but hey I'm not complaining. You mentioned that they sent you a link to something about the maths. Just to clarify are you saying that along with the PHAK they send you a link where you can practice the maths that they will test you on? And with the PHAK what sections would they want you to study? Cause I've got the book and been studying on it and dont think CX would send the book to candidates who have no experience and expect them to learn the whole book in a month or less.

Here is my thought. The link cx provide us is a standard cut-e demonstration test. The content is more related to finance and business. Regarding the math part, I think they will test on the unit conversion, volume, area, distance calculation as KA was testing the same thing in past April. They are also using cut-e.
For the unit conversion... Hopefully people will chime in to giving us the correct math testing method.

Also for this exersice -

Use this to practice -

Looks the same.
Edit:Use a mouse and not a trackpad. It makes a difference.

Found an updated setlist on what will be included on the initial test. You may have encountered it before but this website is genuine for practising I know someone that has used this website before and passed the first round
:
Cathay Pacific Pilot Interview and Assessment-Latest Pilot Jobs-Latest Pilot Jobs
It may not be much but found the link to practice the inductive logical thinking section from cut-e itself just to get a taste of what to expect:
get_started
My flight instructor before said that you really dont have to worry about passing the psycho-motrics sections of the test as CX wouldnt really care much about your ability's on either reacting with the keyboard or whatever. They just want to know whether you the ability to at least gather a score no matter how high or low. And besides you get to have a trial section before you do the real test. I did 1A before.
If you prefer though you can pay and practice if you want to play safe. But if you ask me, focus more on your maths and PHAK knowledge with accuracy and quick timing as that is what CX will heavily look into more rather than the other aspects of the initial tests. And practice more on the abstract reasoning/logical thinking as well.

Thanks for the info!
Regarding the Maths test, is it part of COMPASS? I read somewhere there used to be a separate test consisting of 33 questions to be completed in 30 mins, or something along those lines. Do they still do that?
You reckon the latest pilot job maths test would suffice?
Cheers!

So can someone confirm the Compass test is now 100% gone from CX ?
Just having a guesstimate at what the selection process is now
A: 1. Cut e aptitude test
2. Aviation technical knowledge mini quiz
3. Interview
B: 1. Raven matrix aptitude test
2. Group exercise
3. Management interview
C: Some kind of "flight grading" but done on a computer instead
of using an aircraft at Adelaide
Feel free to amend , just trying to figure out what the components are at
each step

each step
– monitoring ability
– spatial orientation
– complex control
– applied numeracy
– multi-tasking
– reaction speed
– work related behavior
1B - A 45 minute interview - personal and technical questions
and A multiple choice technical questionnaire (60 mins)

The cute practice test seems useless... what are we practicing for the tests UI. Currently using skytest to practice. Hopefully that helps.
Did you do the 1A before with the compass test or the cute test?

Thanks very much , just one further question
The 1B is basic aviation technical stuff , PPL etc
So we have moved on from 1A & 1B what is next then
2A (a) group exercise
(b) another aptitude test - those matrix things they seemed to love
(c) final interview
3 - Flight grading of some kind , but done on a computer
Again feel most welcome to correct the defects here

I heard stage 2 consists of two group exercise.
One of them is done by the applicants by themselves and cathay observes. And one of them is a flight planning one where the applicants are helped by a FO and they need make a flight plan.
Then another technical interview, maybe this one is at more higher level the the 1B one imo.
I dont know if they still do the matrix test or the flight grading.
But if they put me in lvl d sim for a flight grading i'm ****** but hope fully its a atd of some kind.

I submitted around the same time you did, which is on the 15 April, and I haven't heard anything since.
