Yes CUT-E tests, very similar to these:

Thanks egwechris! Does it consist of all of the tests found under CUT-E on that site? Or just a select few of them? Cheers

Surely not as hard as some of those 😑

Any in particular you got from that site?

Did anyone get an email prior to being phoned by Zenon or was it out of the blue?

Were they interested in the type you did the 200 hours on?

Looking for the same
Was thinking to setup a WhatsApp group, anyone interested or can share ?

ToCatLady 30th August 2022 11:23

It’s a competency based interview? What ideas are you going to share?

“Tell me a time when…” it’s really that simple.

If you need a WhatsApp group to navigate past this stage, Zenon have a gigantic task on their hands.

pretty sure Virgin aren’t looking for Pilot’s who need their hands holding throughout.

Clearly you're a little narrow minded.

It's for the whole process and to get to know other people who you maybe in a type rating with.

Why are you here :ugh:

How long did it take for people to hear back after the competency interview to see if they were then invited to the sim?

JMS90 1st September 2022 10:05

In the process too. Comp Interview next week, when arranging this, Zenon were pencilling in dates for the sim within Sept too (providing Interview goes well..of course). Think VA are recuiting in 'batches' and if we're getting all these done now, we're in batch 1 according to someone at Zenon (pinch of salt to be taken) so trying to fire people through.

Would be good to chat people on potential type rating groups, cheers.

moorie88 1st September 2022 12:31

Anyone who wants into the WhatsApp group - PM me your number and I'll add you

Rostermouse 1st September 2022 16:59

Why not wait until you actually get offered a job before setting up a type-rating WhatsApp group, like normal people? :ugh:

Nauti 1st September 2022 18:09

😂😂 ok​​

Management has again confirmed that pilots with >3000hours will join on SFO pay, not FO pay.

The only improvements in lifestyle is a guaranteed 3 days off after some flights, still a lot of trips with only 2 days off after and no more than a maximum of 1 block of standby/reserve allocated at roster production ( no more than 7 days per block). However trips can still be replaced by standby blocks at the live stage.

Other improvements 2.5% pay rise this year and 4% next year.

Re: Zenon pre screening interview.

Anyone who’s already completed this care to share the ‘three’ questions asked? PM if you like. TIA
