Five steps to land your airline career

The selection process for aspiring CityJet Wings pilots is stimulating, challenging and competitive; designed to test your mettle through each of the five phases - application, aptitude testing, interview, psychometric testing and simulator assessment. By the end of the process, both you and CityJet will have a clear, all-round picture of your abilities and your potential as a pilot.

Step 1
Fill in the online application form (accessed by clicking on the APPLY NOW button below). Your application will be carefully screened to ensure your suitability for the next stage.

Step 2

All suitable applicants are invited to take part in an assessment day where we will test your numerical skills, ask you to complete a personality questionnaire and assess your aptitude for flying. This step includes taking part in several group activities to evaluate your interpersonal skills and we'll also endeavour to answer any remaining questions you have about CityJet and CTC during a presentation delivered by one of the assessment team.

Step 3
As part of a further assessment process, you will take part in an interview conducted by members of our combined CTC Wings and CityJet selection team.

Note – Steps 2 and 3 will normally take place on the same day, so please be prepared to stay with us for a full day providing you are successful through Step 2.

Step 4
Time to take the ultimate test and prove yourself in a flight simulator. At this stage we will see how you perform in a jet simulator to confirm your capacity to learn and take on new information, as well as testing your co-ordination, dexterity and interaction in the flight deck.

Step 5
CityJet will ask you to complete a personality questionnaire on-line as the final part of your assessment process for CityJet Wings.
