Just so y’all don’t have to scroll all the way back to the top, the bottom line is that full blown RST style prep is not needed for day 1 anymore. The email they sent which said “prep is not required” for day 1 is absolutely accurate. Make sure your computer works, you have a comfortable setting, good lighting, and are in appropriate attire (most go with business casual). Of course there will be folks that follow this post with some good ole fashioned fear mongering, demanding you sign up for COG prep, but they are referencing the previous interview format.

No one here can nor should share details of the test, but if you are the type that would sleep more soundly with some brain game style practices try the CUT-E prep at https://airlineassessmentprep.com

And of course interview prep (ECIC or Spitfire) for the day 2 prep is a good idea.

Default RST Cog prep is a WASTE. Do not need it

100% agree… DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON RST COG PREP! yes you used to need the JKT and Cog (but they got rid of the JKT and the cog is mainly to see if you’ve had a TBI/stroke). Anyone who says different only cares about the money grab/fear mongering

Day 2 go with spitfire

100% agree with this…..there are other ways to prepare for the COG without paying $400.

Could it be that some 3-5 post people have been lurking for a while but didn’t feel compelled to post much about a company while on the outside looking in? I’m a relatively new hire and will probably post occasionally.

Bottom line is Spitfire’s SBI prep was fresher and seemed more focused than the ECIC sessions, where the instructor would try to trip your up with unnecessary info and slowly spoken radio calls to kill time - artificial stressors not part of the real deal. Both companies had limited spacing for the sessions but spitfire always had smaller groups and more 1-on-1 time. Maybe that was by design; maybe it was because of a much smaller client base.

I did ECIC in-person 4-5 years prior before deciding to ride out an AGR for a while. When I re-attacked the academics last year I don’t think a single video had changed in half a decade. Just one example of how they’d become complacent. I agree that for most people, either will get you where you need to be. That said, I’d recommend Spitfire above ECIC.

Are they still backed up on applications? If so how bad?
