I'm just very curious because I might be the only person who ever failed the interview..sigh.
Son applied for the course back in 2008, got an offer but declined it and went for an alternative career path (which worked out better actually. Some friends of his who finished the course have struggled to find work. Others have been successful - one is an F/O at HKA, another is a recent SO at CX, another is a flight instructor at a flying college). Below were the questions asked (back in 2008, as far as he can remember);
1. Why do you want to become a pilot?
2. Do you do any extra curricular activities? If so, what are they?
3. Where have you worked before (part-time/casual)?
4. There was a poster of a QF 747-200 on the wall and the interviewer asked him what model it was and why he thought it was that model.
5. What is Boeing's soon-to-be released aircraft and why is it so special? (787)
6. What aircraft does Qantas fly?
Don't stress over it. There are other pathways. ATB.
