I would be very happy to receive a reply

Thanks in advance
In my case, I waited 3 weeks (NTR CPT) to get the assessment result and then about a week to get the start date.

The type rating is about 6 weeks and then it's 3 weeks OCC (after a couple of weeks of home studying).

I am not sure about the line training

All right thanks for the information. Maybe it takes longer for me because I am a NTR Cadet

For anyone who attended the recent On-line virtual roadshow for UK based pilots on Monday the 13th, has anyone who posed questions to Anastasia either during the Q&A or afterwards via e-mail actually had any response from her or any of the recruitment team yet ? She said she would get back to us with the answers especially to those of us who applied some time ago and whose on-line portal account said they had been put forward for assessment and then heard nothing back with regards to dates or anything. Has she been in touch with anyone to let them know what has happened ?

Thanks in advance guys, safe flying.

They are not good at getting back (under resourced to put it mildly). I applied to since 2018 and only recently got invited and even when given dates and changes take please it is operating like a virtual office. Patience and persistence is all I can advocate.

Even of you follow protocols of rescheduling an interview you get penalised snd are forced to wait till you can access the interview calender dates. They know the whole world is applying for this opportunity and difficult to get their attention.

Just wait and be prepared for their assessments ss their failure rates are notoriously high.

Good luck

Does anyone know how to rebook an assessment if you needed to cancel in order to rearrange? The link doesn't work.

Have emailed but as usual... no reply!!

It doesnt. I am stuck till today after wzz themselves advise me to decline and reschedule. There was no option to reschedule. Every time I tried to access dates system blocked me for cancelling 1 week prior to the interview date. No one responds by email or phone call.The candidate brochure made no mention of such a penalty. It only recommended not to cancel 24 hiours prior to assessments. Am not sure how to feal with this except keep trying. IT needs to correct the system.I was hesitant to change the date exactly because in of this.

Dont waste your time. Unprofessional staff and demand a lot yet they do not know how to behave in a manner that is standard across the industry. They are also not honest. You will be told in the open day this and that will be covered by the company yet they make you oay everything. They have also certain biases which I would rather not get into here but seem to favour Eastern Europeans and especially Ukranian and Russians from what I saw. ATPL was a joke.They are looking for certain faces and ages perhaps. If they are serious about recruiting pilots due to fleet growth their recruitment methods are non productive.Pay is lousy too.

probably that’s because you keep talking this way about the company? Do you think there are many people who applied and (allegedly) flew the 380? Honestly, if I was the recruitment manager I wouldn’t call you for the interview just reading all your comments here.

As far as the ATPL test, just because you need. people it doesn’t mean you have to hire everyone. If you are not willing to put any effort I don’t think you should blame anyone but yourself.

What an unintelligent remark. Well you are not the HR Manager snd their ATPL is not exactly an ATPL paper.Investigate the reasons first before you make condescending stupid remarks.
And for your info there are many former A380 candidates who were called and some unsuccessful. For you to refer to my user ID as a reference to my qualification is rather dim by any standard.
