I agree with that Fatdog. I'm not sure if I have actually applied although I think that I completed all the questions. Luckily they have the paper version which is what they asked for last week. 
I've had all the confirmation e-mails, for registering, and for completing and submitting an application. I also had one to tell me that the paper applications are no longer valid, so would I please complete one on line. What a palaver! Interviews will be in September.

I am also unsure if my application is complete.
I received 2 emails - one on registering, and one after completing the 'test'.
For me the web site now says 'Active Application', and I was one of those who did not have the education / degree / work history / reference sections.
For those who did have those sections, is your status also 'Active Application', and did you receive some other confirmation email?
And mid-way through the application, a tiny popup window appeared. I resized it and saw something like "Error - You don't have privileges to do this, contact administrator".. Then the window disappeared. Of course I would contact the administrator, but how on earth do I do that!?

I also did not have a page concerning my education etc. Thatswhy i think you first need to fill out the test. If u have a mark of 8 points u can continue your application. If you have less than 8, you are no longer considered.

When you registered to apply one of the first questions was do you have a current cv? So surely if you answered yes to this they are not going to ask about employment and education as it will be detailed on your cv. However if you answered no then maybe they ask you to fill in those details on the application form!

If that's the case, I can only guess by 'scoring' an 8 you have to have an EASA licence as that was the only question I answered a 'no' to....therefore there will be very few as you can't convert until Sept.
I'm bus rated with more than twice the required hours so I'd hope to be considered.
I do hope a common sense approach will be taken, CV's read and those deemed appropriate will be contacted in due course.
Good Luck!

If you have a JAR/JAA UK CAA issued license that is valid till 2017 or after, you have an EASA compliant license. The first EASA ones are issued lated this year, apparently. But all licenses post 2017 will say EASA on the front cover. Thus, if your license expires after 2012, and you have not been required to convert already, you effectively hold an EASA license.

Someone tell me if this is pretty much the score on this one:
If you are low houred and don't know your arse from your elbow beyond what JAR OPS requires for passing an IR and ATPL course but have an A320 TR you may get a look in?
If you have been slogging yer tits off for 7 years in the detritus of GA, with a couple of thousand hours, but don't have a TR or any airline experience you may as well forget it?
Is this correct?

I had an e-mail from HR yesterday directing me to apply via the website. This after sending a CV in by e-mail previously. Luckily I filled the application in last night. Don't know if they'll look at the paper applications, or just those submitted online.
