The first step to obtaining a career with easyJet is the application. Here, you will upload your current CV, as well as answer competency questions that relate to the position you are applying for.

To answer these questions in the correct manner, you will need to include the key values of easyJet in your answers. The key values of easyJet are as follows:

• Safety: Ensuring complete safety not only for yourself but also for the passengers on the plane.
• Integrity: Standing by your word.
• Passion: Doing the job with energy, always looking to be the best.
• Pioneering: Finding new ways of being profitable whilst making travel easy.
• One team: Whatever the problem may be, there is always a solution if we work together.

In addition to incorporating these key values into your answers, you also need to include practical examples of where you have used similar values in the past (as part of your CV).

Held in Luton for 16 pilots, this eight-hour assessment centre consists of multiple steps. These include presentations, aptitude tests, and group exercises.

• Personality test – Personality tests are used to examine key areas of your personality in order to determine how well you fit the position. Although this test is solely based on your own personality, it is still possible and important to prepare.
• Multi-tasking – This test requires you to complete several tasks at a time, as it assesses the coordination and prioritising needed to manage various aspects of work.
• Spatial orientation – Also known as spatial awareness tests, these assessments examine orientation skills in two dimensional and three-dimensional spaces. You will need to understand an aircraft's position in relation to other objects and be able to read aircraft/flight instruments. 

The in-person interview is one of the most important steps of the easyJet Pilot recruitment process. It takes place at the assessment centre. The interview is approximately one hour in length and consists of motivational and competency questions. To answer the questions in the correct manner, you need to integrate the key values mentioned above in your answers.

Additionally, when you are asked a question that inquires about your skill level, you should respond using the STAR method. This method allows you to explain setbacks while highlighting your accomplishments and skills.
