‘Passion’ & ‘aptitude’ are just two of the essential ingredients necessary for employment once C-19 vaccinations are rolled out & market confidence is showing signs of recovery.
Wannabes need to think very carefully as how they have demonstrated ‘passion’, a burning desire to fly, probably from an early age.
Aptitude is more than passing sophisticated psychometric / IQ, hand to eye coordination tests. Team player certainty with the other CRM skills.
Part of the acid test as well is your progress in the first 20 hours of flying.
Individuals go into this occupation for the wrong reasons. Unless you have the passion and aptitude take the advice offered. Look elsewhere for employment.
