Three commercial pilot licence holders have moved the Delhi high court against Air India after being rejected in psychological screening during a recent recruitment drive.
Air India had advertised in February it would hire 197 senior trainee captains, but the airline rejected a third of the 160 candidates for failing a psychological evaluation in panel interviews held later.
The rejected pilots contend Air India “conducted interviews with the psychometric test, which is not contemplated under the (recruitment) advertisement”. They also claimed that it was primarily due to the assessment made by the interviewing psychologist that they were found unfit.
