Question Virgin Atlantic Questions...

Hello there!

Hope to have an interview with Virgin soon and have a few unanswered questions in my head at the mo' so here goes...

1. How is the initial Interview Day held? (Are their exams, group exercises, what tactics should one adopt?)

2. What is in the two-to-one interview? (What type of questions do they ask, what are they looking for at this point?)

ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT THE INTERVIEW DAY YOU CAN ADD?

3. How long and where is the training held, is it paid?

4. What is the average pay P.C.M?

5. What is the lifestyle like as a crewmember at Virgin? (Company benefits etc..)

6. How many trips a month do you average as a junior? (Are these mainly bullets?)

7. How long do you get in each destination and what is the longest trip at the mo? Any new destinations coming up or any old ones coming back like Toronto/Chicago?

8. What is crewing/rostering dept like? Can you make requests?

9. How long is it before you get Airbus rated and will everybody get rated onto the A340-600 this year?

10. Are the crews sociable down route or does everybody do their own thing, is anything laid on for the crews downroute?

11. What are the rankings on board and how long does it take to go from JNR to the next ranking? Is their any fast track system for previous flyers?

12. How long is the probation period and can you take leave during this period?

13. How often are you assessed, on every flight?

Hmmm I know there is a lot above but even if you can answer just a few I’d be really grateful and feel free to add any additional info that you fee would be of assistance!

Many tanks and I look forward to your responses!
