The Chimes–IndiGo cadet route includes ADAPT, a group task and a personal interview with IndiGo panellists. Prepare to discuss your group contribution, motivation and experience.

IndiGo lists several cadet training partners. Read the current notice for your own partner and intake before using any eligibility figure, fee or training timeline in an answer; these details can differ between routes.
