I'm assuming we still need to hire about 130 pilots before the end of the year to staff our deliveries.

I just finished the test. When you get the e-mail, the link takes you to a page before you begin the test, and there you can click on a link that gives you hints and examples of what to expect on the test. I got the cognitive one first and I thought it was straight forward. Don't rush and answer the first question, take your time and read them all. For example there was one with time where it was like 7:30, 7:48, and they want you to say the next. The first answer was 7:06, and 8:06 was last. The questions where it goes from strongly disagree to strongly agree, I thought they were a few that needed more specifics. Like is it a responsibility of all employees to help someone overloaded with a task? I kind of thought about it like in the cockpit if I am with a new FO and I see he is getting behind, of course I am gonna help. But If I am busy myself checking the MELs, flight plan and weather issues, I may not have the time. I am assuming there is no right and wrong answer, but perhaps all the answers together will give them an idea of your personality.

If there is, I haven't seen it.

Has anybody got the next step after the new website application process? After the generic test.

Don't think it does much good at all.

Just a hunch though, I think we're ramping back up the hiring in June/July.

I watched the video that was posted. Things look a little cramped. How many seats are there on your 321's?

218....soon to be 219 on the new 321s.

It's supposed to be a little cramped. Our entire business model is based around the notion of "a little cramped"
