hey..congrats
i suppose you already got your cpl then..?

anyway there is a thread like this but for rex
seeing that they are both for cadet programs..
question should be roughly similar..this is the
same i wrote for the other thread


You should just have a somewhat clear idea of what your going to say when you answer the usual questions such as:

Tell me in a nutshell, why you’re sitting here today
Do you have a plan B?
What do you think Qantas's main/most important market is?

Tell us about a situation when:
1/You’ve overlooked something You’ve challenged a given/held assumption
2/When have you gone beyond what was required of you
3/When has someone disagreed with you or your suggestions
4/When you’ve had to stand your ground
5/When have you had to work or think methodically
6/Has there been a time you’ve had to deviate from this?

Then there are those questions you don't prepare for any I can't think
of any on the top of my head but questions like do you have any questions for us? think of all the questions they would ask you
and just come up with answers on a piece of paper..

then there is presentation and things like..tidy hair, what you wear,
smell etc..remember..you only get one chance to make a first impression
so make sure it's a good one..you think they might not care about these
small details..but i can assure you they do!

Overall, just act positively. Don't just sit there and answer questions like a robot..try and make the interview as a conversation; not too formal..but not too informal either..try and also be concise with your answers..most people have a tendency to bring in a background to their answer..in answer to some of those questions, its effective, in others, it just makes your answer boring..

btw..remember to be courteous..in the lead up to the interview..you should see if you can get your hands on some of their annual reports..or anything thats happened lately at qantas..it may help..

i havent checked on qantas links website but wasn't there a preference
for people under 27's ? not really sure abt that but if thats the case
just show alot of enthusiasm

good luck
