Scoot (2024)

Headquartered at the Singapore Changi airport, Scoot Pte Ltd is a low-cost and long-haul airline owned by Signapore Airlines. Scoot Pte Ltd operates a fleet of 12 787 Dreamliner aircraft to approximately 23 destinations in Asia and Australia. The airline is also part of the Value Alliance, containing Asia Pacific’s best value airlines. Scoot Pte Ltd utilises computerised pilot aptitude tests during the assessment of inexperienced and experienced (direct-entry) pilots for recruitment in to the airline.

All pilot aptitude tests aim to assess the same key core skills required to complete pilot training successfully and/or operate an aircraft competently. The assessment of skills such as multi-tasking, spatial awareness, memory capacity, hand-to-eye coordination and mental arithmetic cannot necessarily be assessed within one test and therefore a pilot aptitude test is commonly separated in to a collection of tests, organised in to a battery and completed by the candidate in one sitting. The candidate is commonly provided with two attempts in which to complete this battery, enabling assessors to analyse improvement shown by the candidate.

When recruiting Experienced Pilots and Low-Hour Pilots, Scoot have incorporated the Aon (Cut-E, MAPTQ) assessment in to their selection process.

The assessment incorporates a variety of tests which assess a large number of competencies. The tests used may be named differently to those tests you may have encountered in the past and may cause some confusion (e.g. ‘Monitoring Ability’ and ‘Sense of Direction’).

We have therefore taken this information and have decoded the jargon to help candidates to understand how they will be assessed, and to provide direction on the best activities to use within our preparation platform.

Your Scoot Pilot Assessment may include the following tests – we have provided a decode of what each test will assess and how to prepare for it:

Our software may be used, and in particular, those activities listed below, to aid in your preparation for this assessment.

Since 2013, the online preparation software provided by PilotAptitudeTest.com has been traditionally used by a substantial number of pilots and pilot candidates attending assessment at many different flight training organisations and airlines across the UK, Europe and beyond.

Should you be unsure as to how to proceed with your preparation, please get in touch.

Additionally, we would encourage candidates to speak with us via WhatsApp Messenger, Facebook Chat or Email so that we may be able to answer any queries you may have.

We recommend using the content shown below in coordination with our Online Preparation Planners in preparation for assessment with Singapore Airlines.

Adjust

A challenging activity, Adjust assesses multi-tasking, spatial awareness, hand-to-eye coordination, selective attention and mental mathematic skills.

Visual Reasoning 1 to 4

Our Visual Reasoning activities enable candidates to work on understanding rules, patterns and interrogating information.

Orientation

Orientation assesses spatial awareness and selective attention skills, by tasking candidates with identifying friend or foe aircraft.

Perspectives

Perspectives assesses and enhances spatial awareness, tasking the candidate with matching sets of multicoloured cylinders orientated in to different perspectives.

Aspects

Mimicking tasks within a jet aircraft, Aspects assesses and enhances candidate ability in spatial awareness by incorporating aural statements and visual imagery.

MultiTasker

Encompassing multiple tasks in to one activity, MultiTasker assesses and enhances candidate ability in multi-tasking, hand-to-eye coordination and selective attention.

Num. Reasoning 1 to 8

Numerical Reasoning 1 to 8 analyse your ability to interpret information, using figures, tables, graphs and statistics and come to conclusions on the data.

Memory

Memory assesses selective attention and memory capacity skills, tasking the candidate with efficiently memorising and inputting four sets of data repeatedly.

Control

Control assesses and enhances candidate ability in hand-to-eye coordination and selective attention using multiple control axes and visual cues.

Switch

Switch establishes an understanding of memory capacity and selective attention skills, tasking the candidate with efficiently acknowledging change.

Guidance

Tasking the candidate with controlling multiple intermittently changing datums, Guidance assesses and enhances selective attention and hand-to-eye coordination skills.

Mental Mathematics

Our mathematics database, organised in to easy, medium and hard difficulties, accurately mimics the questions posed in a large majority of pilot aptitude tests.

Grid

Rectangular grid containing a variety of different coloured shapes. The candidate must examine the grid and determine which shape does not represent the provided values.

Flight Director

This highly accurate test simultaneously assesses and enhances multi-tasking, hand-to-eye coordination and memory capacity skills.

Align

Multi-tasking activity with three different activities which must be monitored and successfully completed simultaneously. Horizontal and vertical control mode are provided for practice.

Spin

Rotating tube containing a variety of different two-dimensional shapes, which must be correctly navigated (or flown through) to ensure continued progression through the tube.

Tracking

Tracking assesses and enhances candidate multi-tasking and hand-to-eye coordination skills with the use of two control axes controlled by opposing inputs.

Visual Reasoning 2

One of many visual reasoning puzzles provided to candidates, Visual Reasoning 2 establishes the understanding of spatial awareness using 2D objects.

Visual Reasoning 3

One of many visual reasoning puzzles provided to candidates, Visual Reasoning 3 establishes the understanding of spatial awareness using 3D objects.

Visual Reasoning 4

Visual Reasoning 4 presents four images each containing numerous scrambled lines and tasks the candidate with identifying which image hides a shape within.
