Skills and Psych.......nothing too humiliating and degrading there
When I did my Qantas interview I was sitting next to a good friend (an AN F/O. Great guy whom I'd flown with often. A TOP (9000hr+) operator.). Due to family circumstances he needed the job a lot more than I did.
Result? After 3 hour sitting in front of the bloody computer, I passed and he failed. This excellent and highly qualified PILOT was not good enough for the rat because he couldn't mentally fold cubes to the required standard.
He next job? Flying a 737 with a big white rat on the tail around NZ (he had a command within a year). It was OK for him to fly QF passengers around, just as long as he didn't get paid too much.
The Skills and Psych are FAR too humiliating and degrading. The have left QF without the services of many very good pilots. They are a joke and a disgrace.
