It's interesting to see how a small, very accurate comment on the HR's attitude to recruitment can raise such ire and bring about such comments as cadet pilots having "attitude problems".
Cadet pilots have been having attitude problems for decades now. And some of them are even captains now with the same unchanged "attitude problem", only now they're re-labeled non-company-men.
You cannot expect to employ starry eyed cadets who will bow and scrape to the company's every whim. If that were the case, we'd have no need of a pilot's union. Give intelligent, thinking guys a break.
Recognise that there's a huge flaw in the system people! If an interviewee can see in on his very first visit to the company, does he not have the right to wonder what else is rotten?
Deodorant, I've pm-ed you with some tips hopefully you'll find them useful if you get through to the interview stage.
Most importantly recognise it's all sticks and stones. There's still a lot of joy to be found in this proffession.
