Post AON / Cut E

I know this has been talked about in this forum on different occasions, But I wanted to see if Anyone had a link for Prep they used before taking the AON.

I know AON / Cut E is preferred, but multiple sites with different packages are available.

Thanks in advance

Apply to AA and do theirs at the end of the app for free
airlineassessmentprep.com has it for a small monthly fee

Default AON Round Two

Hey all. So, failed the first AON attempt a couple weeks ago. Definitely disappointing, but I have every intention of trying again if Delta is kind enough to send me another invite after the 3 month period.

For those who have been through this process, did you need to remove your app from airline apps addendums and reapply from scratch? Or is it acceptable to leave your existing application active in airline apps, keep updating it and just don’t expect to hear anything for at least 3 months?

Appreciate any info on this area.

Thanks,

Keep your application up to date. No need to create a new one. I updated mine daily while I was waiting for my second try at the test (took 120-ish days for me).

I did add a sentence to the addendum where it asks if you've ever interviewed or tested for DAL or NWA. Something like "1 attempt at the AON cognitive test in month/year."

I guess they’re doing most of it on line now?

Like DWC CAP10 USAF said, the AON is a video monitored online cognitive/personality assessment that must be passed prior to getting an interview.

The interview is a long-ish day, but Delta does a great job with the process, the facilities are great for the interviewees, and the entire pilot selection team was awesome. The only thing that would've made it better is that 727 sim!

Question about your experience taking the AON, are you actually recorded taking the test? I know it says it that you need to have the webcam and microphone on, and that was the first I have heard of it

When you start the test it explains that the camera/mic are used to take snippets throughout the process essentially to verify that it's actually you taking the test. I don't think it's used for any sort of "video interview" aspect.

If your webcam has a light that shows when recording is taking place, it will be on as you are completing each section of tests (and off between sections.)

Post AON

Has anyone who actually took the AON and passed felt comfortable after taking it?? I have used some test prep software which was requested here, but still not entirely confident about it...

Just wanted to see everyones else's temperature on it.

Yeah, felt it was very easy. My only unsure was the dots/balls. Hard to judge when there's a cluster and the choices are within 1. Took the test at night, had the interview invite the next day. This was back in May.

Anyone going down to ATL on the 9th? interviewing on the 10th? shoot me a message if you'd like to meet up. Try to get a group together ahead of time.
