VN Interview..

.. I know someone has already posted about this but... no one has really given away any info..

I would really be much appreciated if someone could pm me and give me a headsup. I have been applying for jobs but just have had no interviews so I really need this. The last interview I did do was horendous, so any info would be appreciated. Any kind hearted pilots or individuals who are reading this... who would would be able to pm me...? Anyhow I don't want to back you in a corner, but any info would be great.

What kind of technical questions get asked in the Tech Quiz. How many questions are there. What kind of personal questions do they ask? How many people are interviewing you? Is the Tech Quiz before the interview?

Much thanks in advance,
Airmiles

Apparently its a great help if you are computer literate and up to date on the 634 scam, failing that any form of organised drug dealing or extortion would come in handy.....Nigeria, the land of oportunity.

Appologies to any law abiding Nigerians out there.....all 3 of you

Can someone please give me some info on the VN interview please. What kind of questions do they ask? What is the psychometric test like? Is it numerical, mathematical, 3-dimensional questions??

50 tech questions, Ihear it is great if you have looked up ACE the PILOT Technical Interview.

A panel of three with 1] A management pilot, 2] A Human Resourse person, and 3] a Human Factors speciallist.

Questions range from life experiences to the tecnical, I guess they just want to get to know you and see if you can fit in.

The psycometric test is all about yourself, likes and dislikes.

There are a few good sample test on the internet.

Generally be yourself.

Hey fluffyfan, some mothers do have them ...enjoy life its free

Hope that helps.

Sorry Fedeno, no I don't know the name of the woman. I was out at work at the time of when she called. But I am sure it is probably same one that sent the e-mail about the days and times of the interview.

What have you been studying in preperation for the interview?
