FWIW I think many posting on pprune would do well to consider all the users of these forums. More importantly some forum users will no doubt be involved in any selection process. (Be it Bond OAT or where ever)
With a little effort it is not normally that difficult to attach an identity to the user name (especially with a detailed listing). With a selection of poorly worded posts and some play ground back biting and oneupmanship I'd be asking myself some serious questions right now if I was interviewing candidates for this opportunity, And then probing a little deeper during any selection process to see whether it's simply internet bravado or a character trait that may cause later problems
Perhaps some hoping for future good news should do similar. Nothing worse than realising too late that you've shot yourself in the foot
Not a rant. You either take advice from those you aspire to join or you don't.
Whilst I feel for those who didn't get past stage 1, and wish luck to those attending stage 2. I hope those that get these coveted places DESERVE them.

AND rapidly editing or deleting posts just proves the point
