Prepare for the next stage of your career

For a CPL holder, airline selection is an important step towards an airline cockpit. Airlines may use multiple assessment stages to evaluate a candidate's knowledge, aptitude, communication, personality and professional suitability.

The selection process varies between airlines and recruitment cycles, but may include written examinations, aptitude assessments, group discussions and personal interviews.

Aerowis prepares CPL holders for these stages through structured practice, realistic mock assessments and individual feedback.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is airline preparation for?

It is for CPL holders preparing for airline selection and recruitment assessments. If you are aiming for an airline cadet programme instead, Aerowis runs a separate Cadet Pilot Preparation course. If you are unsure which one fits, ask the advisory desk.

Which selection stages does the preparation cover?

It covers four stages: the written exam, aptitude tests, group discussion and personal interview. Selection processes vary between airlines and recruitment cycles, so not every airline uses every stage. Check each airline's current requirements and ask the advisory desk which stages to prioritise.

What does written exam preparation include?

It focuses on strengthening your aviation knowledge, technical understanding and subject knowledge through focused practice and airline-specific preparation. Ask the advisory desk how topics and practice papers are scheduled for your batch before you enrol.

Which aptitude tests do you prepare for?

Preparation covers cognitive, numerical, logical, verbal and spatial assessments, including ADAPT, COMPASS and similar systems. The test an airline uses can vary, so confirm the format with the airline you are applying to and share it with the advisory desk.

How do you prepare candidates for group discussions?

Practice focuses on communication, active listening, teamwork and structured participation in a professional group setting. You practise in realistic mock sessions and receive feedback on how you contribute, so you know what to improve before the real selection day.

What does personal interview preparation cover?

It prepares you for personal, HR and technical questions, with a focus on communication, personality, aviation knowledge and professional presentation. Mock practice and individual feedback help you notice weak areas before an airline interview.

Are there mock assessments and personal feedback?

Yes. The preparation is built around structured practice, realistic mock assessments and individual feedback. The number of mock sessions and the schedule are not published on the course page, so ask the advisory desk for these details before you enrol.

Does airline preparation guarantee selection?

No. Airlines make their own selection decisions, and their processes and recruitment cycles differ. Preparation helps you practise and improve your performance, but no academy can honestly promise you a seat. Treat it as readiness for the assessment, not a job offer.

Do I need a licence before joining, and what if my CPL is foreign?

The course is designed for CPL holders. If you are still completing training, ask the advisory desk about timing. An Indian DGCA licence is required to pursue airline flying in India, so if your CPL is foreign, ask about DGCA licence conversion.

How do I enquire about fees and the schedule?

Fees and schedule details are not listed on the course page. Call or WhatsApp +91 8594 000 730 (Monday to Saturday, 9:30 am to 5:30 pm) or email info@aerowis.com, and ask for the schedule, the number of mock assessments and a written fee breakup.
