If you've heard nothing then your app has not been touched. I'd get a face to your name. If you failed the assessment then nothing is going to help anyway. You'll have to wait a year.

I took the assessment a few months ago too. Do you know if there is any way of figuring out whether or not you passed before making the trip out there? Def would be a shame to waste so much money for something you are now not even qualified for. I don't remember seeing any green smiley face or anything like someone told me (after the fact) but I wasn't really looking.

You don't know the score and there is no indication of a score. If you go to a job fair and talk to the HR person there! They will draw up your score there. They still won't tell you how you did unless you did well. Then they will decide to send you the next step, the questionnaire. Good luck!

So if you get the questionnaire, does that mean you are in the running for an interview, I received it about a month ago, filled it out and haven't heard anything.

Short or long? Either way they can sit on it or go to the next step. (Remember, long psych/logic test first, next step is short essay HR form, then interview) there's no rhyme or reason to those not in their hiring dept.

Face time at a job fair absolutely helps. This is a big deal to them. They're interested in who you are. Going to a job fair can help your cause. If this is somewhere you really want to work and you haven't gotten a "thanks but no thanks", go to the job fair if you can.

Going to the job fair in LV on thursday.

Do they want to see original documents such as Education/Passport/ATP etc or does that come later (hopefully).

That would be later. They want to get to know you and if you hang out there with them long enough, they will. Talk with as many of the pilots as you can, and try to meet with the HR reps. Take plenty of resumes and cover letters (they seemed to like getting mine).
