its not fixed everytime.........
its according to:
- requirement
- how many people are really good/bad
- how many performed well
- did all of them accept the LOI (all of them don't trust me...yes they don't)
- how many people they clear

i know sometimes 'per session' as in per recruitment.....
sometimes 20 were hired long time back, once i know 14 were hired....once i know 18 , and once 21.....

so it depends on lot of factors....

but usually on an average - about 14-16 people. TOTAL.

Post ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CASS

There will be 4 stages of assessment:

Questionnaire stage

This will be completed online before going to the testing centre. You will use your given
username and password on Welcome to ADAPT
Figure 3: Login screen with example username and password
If you have not been sent your username and/or password via email, you should write to
[email protected]
You should do the questionnaire in a comfortable, quiet area with no distractions or
interruptions.
Firstly you will be asked if you will let your data to be used and stored. Then you will start
the questionnaire, which has 277 questions. This stage has no time limit, but you should try
to finish within 30-45 minutes, in 1 attempt. The questions will change in length and have
options to choose from. You will answer questions on a range of topics, including your
interests, preferences and opinions. There are no right or wrong answers. To assess your
personality to the highest standard, we need to get the correct information about you.
Therefore, you should be totally honest when answering the questionnaire.

Post CONTINUED....

English Proficiency Test

This is an online test which has some practice sessions and 2 actual sessions
Beginner and Intermediate Both are fairly simple no tension should be taken for that. EASY

Structured Interview stage

This involves a panel interview with 2 members of staff and takes 30-40 minutes. Like the
questionnaire, this interview looks at your personality traits, states, emotion control and
quality of life. The interview is a chance for you to tell us about yourself. This is done
through a relaxed chat, not a formal interview.


Physical Task stage

This stage uses a flight simulator that is based on a simple computer game. It is controlled using a stick and throttle.

You will be sat in-front of 5 screens. The middle three screens show the cockpit view, with the head-up display in the centre. The left screen is the question screen where different types of questions will appear for you to answer. The right screen is the map screen, which shows your route and current information.

Question Task tests include:
Numerical Reasoning: Questions that use numbers & mathematical data.

Verbal Reasoning:Questions based on spoken or written information.

Abstract Reasoning:Recognising patterns/similarities between shapes & figures.

Perceptual Speed and Accuracy:Working quickly & accurately to find information from words, numbers or pictures

Spatial Relationship Reasoning:Being able to see spatial patterns and move/rotate these in your mind, to solve visual problems.

Working Memory:How well you can remember information in the short term.

Stroop Test: How and what you pay attention to.


The whole physical task will last for 1 hour and 15 minutes, and has 5 stages:
1. Cognitive – Practice at answering the psychometric questions.
2. Familiarisation 1 – Practice using the flight simulator and the joy stick and throttle.
3. Familiarisation 2 – Practice using the flight simulator with the map (Sat Nav) screen.
4. Mission 1 – The first mission - flying the simulator and answering questions.
5. Mission 2 – The second mission – similar to mission 1 with some extra tasks.
During the Physical task you will be video recorded. This is so that in the debrief you can see how you reacted.

Debrief stage

During this stage, you will sit with the examiner and watch the video playback of yourself during parts of the physical task. This is so you can think about how you have done and tell us about it.

All the Best
AVR

Need some help

An aircraft is flying east with a speed of 500 km/hr. There is a tail wind of speed 40 km/hr from 2400 with respect to the
North. Using triangle law of vectors, the approximate ground speed of the aircraft is


500 km/hr. is this right ?

@alpha victor romeo

Could you care to outline the dates the assessments took place ( eg : date of exam , date of CASS , date of Interview )

My friend who gave the Sept '11 written exam had to wait for a whole two months till the final interview .
Written exam in Sept
CASS in October
Interview in November .

It took them one week to tell him that he managed to get through

Your case on the other hand seems to be happening very quickly

And thanks a lot for the info on the CASS . That was most detailed description I have ever seen . Thanks

Moving quickly indeed

Yes the stages of assessment were conducted very fast. (for the first 12 candidates at least)
We had the exam on Jan 11 in Delhi
The CASS was held Jan 16 - 21 for 2 candidates per day in Bengaluru.
On Jan 23 evening we got a call to be prepared to go to Delhi for the interview. Got email confirming interview at 5:40 pm to come to Delhi Jan 24 at 9:15 am.

There were 12 candidates for the gd/interview.

Rest of the candidates will have their gd/interview on Feb 7th.

Just waiting for the final results.
