Assessment & Selection

Personal Interview. 
Aviation knowledge test: Questions are based on DGCA CAR SECTION 7 Flight Crew Standards Training and Licensing. SERIES B PART IV. The ‘cool off’ period, which is the minimum duration a candidate is required to wait before reappearing for the test, will be determined by IndiGo from time to time and communicated by CAE to the applicants.

The number of candidates allowed for the second phase (CASS testing) and assessments thereafter will depend on IndiGo’s Junior First Officer (JFO) hiring requirement. All candidates who score the minimum pass marks, as decided by IndiGo, shall be intimated individually by CAE. Henceforth, the results will not be announced on the day of the test.

Applicants successfully completing the aviation knowledge test will be attending the CAE Aircrew Selection System (CASS).
