KLM Selection & Grading

The Blue Standard Starts Here.

Our platform provides a targeted, comprehensive training program designed to prepare you for every stage of the KLM airline pilot selection. Through a structured self-study curriculum, you will navigate each phase of the process at your own pace: from the psychological evaluations and capacity tests at the AMC, to the simulator grading, and the final COVA interview.

Your cockpit. Your pace. Your career at KLM.

The selection process

Phase 1
Online selection

After your application has been approved, you will receive an invitation for the online selection. These tests serve as an initial screening of your basic aptitudes and personality.

  • Online pilot-specific cognitive skills test.
  • Personality Assessment.
Phase 2
On-site Assessment

If the results of your online tests are positive, you will be invited to the AMC. This is an intensive day focused on both your ‘hard’ intellectual abilities and your ‘soft’ social skills.

  • Aptitude Testing
  • Personality Assessment & Biography
Phase 3
Simulator Grading

This phase evaluates your technical precision and multi-crew coordination in a high-pressure environment both as a PF and PM. The grading will be performed in a B737 simulator in Amsterdam.

  • Manual Handling

  • LOFT Scenario


Phase 4
COVA Interview
This is the final and most crucial hurdle. COVA stands for the Commissie van Aanname (Selection Board), consisting of senior KLM pilots and HR specialists. This interview definitively determines whether you receive the coveted job offer.

"Thanks to this training, I went into the COVA interview with a completely different mindset. Previously, I found it difficult to name my 'weaknesses' without falling into clichés. Through the training, I finally understood the recurring themes in my own behavior. During the interview, I was able to use the STAR method to calmly explain the reasoning behind my choices."

"The aptitude tests at the AMC are brutal when it comes to time pressure. I had practiced a lot beforehand, but the specific explanation of syllogisms and the planning task in this training gave me that extra bit of confidence. Practicing the number and figure series in this course is highly recommended; it aligned perfectly with what I was presented with during the actual selection day!"
