Hi!!!
Was wondering if anyone could help me with a few questions I have regarding an assessment day with TC at Gatwick in December???
Do you have to do a self presentation in a group interview???
How many people roughly attend assessment days???
Do the tests come first and do people go home at this stage if they dont pass???
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I have an assessment day in Manchester this monday, I applied last year and got though the stages, but i failed to impress at the interview, so even thou i have applied and passed for assessment, I am still worried that im not going to get though this stage.
I have worked as a PSA for TCX but im unsure what i could do different in this years assessment! Can anyone point out any tips, I would be Most Grateful.
Many Thanks
Paul

Thomas Cook
Hi guys, I've got an interview with Thomas Cook in January 2009 and I just want to say thank you for writing how the interview is going to be held. When they say that contracts are temporary, so it means they don't hire people permanently!?? If one of you could give more examples of the questions they ask it would be great. By the way, English is not my native language so I hope you will have a good impression on it. Thank you for your reply...
