The difficulty with the industry is actually getting an interview. I have a job and it was the first interview I had after nearly two years of looking.
I am not questioning the integrity of the people running it but if these people are involved in running a major airline and they genuinely want to be helpful they could for starters reply to letters and CVs sent to them and communicate what their entry requirements are.
You can pass all the entry tests have a great CV,bags of confidence but if the interview panel think 'I would not want to work with this guy' you don't stand a chance. Now,for your £300 do you get an honest opinion of your personality? Do they tell you they wouldn't give you a job in a 1000 yrs because you are just too damn weird?
For those on the next course why not ask the main man how many low timers he hires, how many hours he likes,age,experience etc and post on pprune what he says. Now that would be usefull.
