This has been mentioned several times before, but just to clarify for everyone. The email with the PST is automatically generated once your application is submitted. It used to be part of the application when previously on pilotcredentials. It is not like DL where the PST is only sent once your application has been pulled.
And I submitted with Chrome on a PC with a clean cookies and browser history.

Sorry if this has been asked, but with the new site is there a place to update hours etc? Done the pst. When I log in to update it only lets me update my profile-like address and start date but I’m not seeing where to update hours. Also on the link they give you to check status, nothing is there except it says I’ve applied for one job and it’s in process. No resume, no attachments, nothing….

My online math test seemed different to what others received. Much of mine was in the metric system. No equalising of sides in an equation, however formulas for cylinders, circles and triangles ratio and percentage problems and 3-1415….
Other tests included addition while checking to see if duplicate numbers and selecting left and right, and an automobile test, which way turning ect left right straight and a U turn, sudoku,

The 'fly through the hoops' game was nearly identical to the free ones online, but easier. I practiced Sudoku for a bit before taking the test, but there wasn't any actual Sudoku; there was pattern recognition that looked like Sudoku, which started out easy and became quite difficult, which I'm sure is intentional.
A bunch of math problems that weren't difficult at all. If you passed high school algebra you'll have no issues. The "memorize which icons are in which squares" was really tough, but I followed the advice of one poster on here who suggested to just focus on the top row so you'll definitely get those 4 right.
I probably performed average or below-average on the PST, but they called me anyways, so if you're about to take it, don't stress. Just do your best. Do not try it on an iPad, as others have mentioned. Ideally you want to have at least a laptop or a desktop computer and a mouse you're quite comfortable with. And a quiet place with no distractions. Do not attempt to take it on your phone while on the hotel van

if you use a phone or iPad their system doesn’t work. Has to be a computer.

Everyone that fills out at least a certain percentage of the application gets invited to the PST. It is likely not the reason that you aren't getting a call. Make sure to double/triple check your application for and errors and keep updating it.

How many hours are you at? I filled out my app and took the PST 3-4 months ago and received no interview invite yet. I’m only at about 1700 hours and am hoping that’s the reason I haven’t gotten the call yet.
