The process began with a public advertisement that drew nearly 12,000 applications. Demonstrating its commitment to transparency in selection, the airline invited short-listed applicants to take part in the next phase of the recruitment drive, from 20-23 May 2025 at the Bandaranaike Memorial International Conference Hall (BMICH).

At BMICH, each candidate underwent a meticulous multi-stage screening process, including document verification such as qualification certificates, an image and presentation assessment and an aptitude interview conducted by a panel of experts. Candidates must successfully complete each stage to proceed to the next. Those who meet the criteria across all stages will be invited for a final, in-depth interview at the airline's headquarters in Katunayake, after which the final selection will be made on who is cleared for takeoff.
