Pilot recruitment at HOP!
Recruits qualified pilots and, depending on the period, ab initio candidates on a more accessible type (Embraer E-Jet) than a major long-haul aircraft; often seen as a possible stepping stone into the Air France group for young pilots.
Recruitment information is given as a guide only (public sources, subject to change over time): always check the current conditions on the airline's careers site.
History of HOP!
Created in 2013 through the merger of three regional subsidiaries of Air France (Régional, Britair and Airlinair), HOP! brings the group's regional activity together under a single brand. It operates a short-haul domestic and European network "for Air France" from secondary French cities.
Preparing for the HOP! psychometric tests
The angles and multitasking exercises are common to the “Psy 1” psychometric tests of Air France, HOP and ENAC. ForAllPilots offers them as practice, in the “Air France - ENAC” tab of its psychometric tests section.
These are practice exercises, not the official tests: ForAllPilots is not affiliated with any of these organisations, and the exact rules or scoring may differ. These exercises are included with the ATPL subscription.
