Some advice for this years applicants. I went into the AC with a bit of flying experience last year and the questions in the panel interview reflected where I was at.
Hadn't flown in the previous year so was rusty on the knowledge and drew donuts to a fair few questions. Told them honestly I didn't know the answer to those ones and didn't want to make one up for the sake of an answer. Walked out of the interview thinking there was no chance I'd make it through and wrote myself off. Got invited to the next round.
Know your strengths and play to them
