THE SELECTION PROCESS

 

It’s important to note that the test score comprises a significant component of the overall score and candidate ranking.

HOW PATS CAN HELP PREPARE YOU

Selection to the Cathay Pacific program is highly competitive, with only the top performers earning a place. For this reason, we recommend you contact us as soon as you’re ready to apply.

Although our Cathay Pacific course has a primary focus on preparation for the aptitude tests, we also give advice on preparing for the interviews and group exercises. We’ll work with you on the basis that you will only have one attempt at the selection process and that a strong test score is critical for success.
