Assessment and Selection

Should you be shortlisted we will invite you to complete an online assessment as the first step in the process.

This is due to changes in EASA regulations which requires all new pilots to undertake a 'Work Related Behavioural' assessment prior to commencing the training under EASA regulation CAT.GEN.MPA.175.

This is completed in two phases;

• Phase 1 consists of an online assessment conducted using AON (€60 fee applies). This fee will be reimbursed to all candidates who join a course.
• Phase 2 is a comprehensive psychological assessment, which forms part of the overall Simulator assessment / interview.

During Phase 1, experienced First Officers are required to complete a total of 4 tasks.

Only candidates who successfully complete and meet the minimum standards during Phase 1 will be progressed forward to Phase 2 which includes the Simulator Assessment.
