I had an interview last year in July. A good setup indeed, very professional and a nice group of people I met on the day.


Interview was firstly with HR and a CC member, usual HR based questions, straight forward. Next was a technical interview with TRE and an FO who was recruiting. Fairly standard Airbus tech questions and some Low Vis/De icing stuff. Also asked how I would cope with 18 days in the Faulklands with nothing to do in the winter! I was told most flights are night flights to Cyprus carrying troops and that the Thomas Cook gig was imminent, which of course is now.


After lunch a SIM. Basic SID hand flown from Birmingham with FD and ATHR. Once level AP in and a mini loft. I got a situation which required a diversion the Brize Norton for a raw data SRA approach (both FMGC's fell over) which was not part of it but we just cracked on. Following landing reposition 10 miles for a single engine approach and landing.


I didn't take the job when offered so can't say anymore.
