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.
honestly man, nothing worse than someone who blame others for its own failures. Anyway, I wish you the best and I hope you get a job soon (not bring sarcastic).

I don't work there, but by my calculations and using PPJN figures, up to AED ~600k could be possible.

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.
Hey pal, after talking like that allow me to rub your words around your face.

Former a380 pilot ( VERY GOOD FRIEND OF MINE) got called won't mention the circunstances but let's say for a very good position. Accepted the contract and got fired due to another covid wave, never got called again.
Former a320 pilot on an UAE company, got called failed the technical interview (+4k hours)
French army pilot, got rejected on the personal/tech interview.
What the actual f* are you talking about? Their recruitment team has been called out MANY times already and it's being changed at a pace except a few that have "good connections". Stop the BS and accept the situation. BTW, if you're a girl, the chances of passing skyrockets even if you're handicapped and has no motor skills.

The interview is absolutely doable with the right commitment. However, If you expect to pass the ATPL test without putting any effort you just fail. Plain and simple. I am not saying that you pass just because you worked for Emirates on the A380. Hours don’t really mean anything!! Probably they will have to “lower the bar” as Emirates did a few years back. Nevertheless, I hope they still keep a good standard and don’t hire people who like to “rub” words around people face!

Thank you. I am current cpt on a320 and as I may guess the initial test was much easier as it had 30% of the questions about type. There were some stupid questions about the number of seats on the company's fleet and so on. Math is pretty basic just brush up on how to divide/multiply on paper, that is prime numbers and etc. I trained on LPJ and it was more than enough. And a bunch of questions about general aviation staff: RW lightings, performance, gradients and etc. IMHO the first stage was the most difficult as 50% of the group left. The panel interview wasn't very difficult for me, but there were mostly captain's questions and a few regarding type. I wouldn't say I was as precise as they expected but it was ok. The next day was sim. I was asked to be seat support for cadet who unfortunately failed. there were steep turns, climb/descend with given v/s, intercepting radials, and flying to/from VOR. Instructors are very peaceful and understand that it isn't easy to fly a320 hadn't ever been before in FFS. In my opinion, the cadet failed coz was struggling with some basic exercises like intercepting radials and keeping flight parameters within limits. For me sim wasn't about handling, it was about decision making and time management. Finally, we were 5 at the psycho assessment out of 12 at the very beginning. One guy told me that if u get to the final stage you are 99% in. Will see.
Good luck

Don't worry! The instruction time was limited for that excercise and I didnt realize that so I missed half of the instruction and after I was completely lost.
Anyway they told us that almost nobody failed that part so far... I think they are more concerned about the psycho test, in case you are a crazy dude or something...
So dont worry Im sure its a pass and hopefully see u soon on board then ;-)

Hi, it depends on your position. For cadets, it takes longer than for type-rated pilots. I heard that it may take up to half an year for NTR pilots. good luck.

Are all assessments in BUD? I heard that a limited few might be in LGW?

How do you contact the recruitment team?
