6k+ in various large aeroplanes, plus other vaguely exotic stuff and previously worked in similar cultures. Did stages 1-3 last time around before accepting something else.

Not for a c.£55k basic and mediocre pension to (likely) sit RHS in a 320 out of LHR working every weekend until the kids have left school, sat next to a 26 year old #BAsmart. Frankly the thought was akin to being repeatedly stabbed in the knackers with a blunt pair of scissors. (N.b I do appreciate most at BA are decent guys and gals).
Shame, once upon a time I’d have sold my Gran to work for BA.
That grumble aside though, in my opinion it is
the best designed recruitment process out there. If you get through it you obviously meet their standards and you
really, really want to work for BA. I’m evidently not that person. The process seemingly works well... Fair enough!
