Gulf Air Interviews/Assessments for September 2005

[SubsonicMortal]

Hi all

I, and many others I am sure, would be grateful to anyone who can provide some information on the Gulf Air "Assessment" process. They have an assessment period in Bahrain in September over a period of 3 days.

I have read multiple posts on PPRune about working for Gulf Air and the living conditions in Bahrain so Im fairly clued up with that. What would be very useful to many is some information on the selection process for 2005 and in particulour September.

Thanks in advance to any replies!

Many happy landings.

Cheers
