Okay chaps, just completed the selection day yesturday...and have finally collected my thoughts:
Extra interview questions - in no particular order (brain still spinning!):
- Give an example of when you motivated your team.
- In your current job, what really frustrates you? How do you deal with it?
- Would it annoy your if your 'team' didn't agree with one of your decisions?
- What problems (challenges) do you think you will face when you join BA?
- What has been your greatest challenge?
- Give an example of when you faced a crisis.
- Give an example of when you had to make a quick/ snap decision.
- What are the problems facing BA and where do you think they are going/ should be looking in the future?
- What have you got to offer BA?
- If you were my FO, how would I know that you were working at your max capacity? How would I know that you were under pressure? How do you deal with it?
- What are the challenges with dealing with cultural diversity? How would you deal with them?
- Give an example of when you made a big change - how did you cope?
- Give an example of when you deligated.
- Give an example of when you delivered sensitive information to 'your' team.
- How would you be able to improve customer service?
As you can see, they were 'both' really trying to get inside my head and find out what makes me tick.
Apart from 'Why do you want to join BA, and define CRM, all my questions were as above.
We were briefed about no more 777 slots - only Airbus and 757/ 767 (DEP's likely go to LHR first), no sim slots till Nov, no jobs till mar '07 and finally, only 50-80 slots (total) available for '07!!
Hope this helps? Enjoy!!!!!
