Apart from a few other threads and what BA have emailed to me, I haven't got a clue what its gonna be like! Any suggestions about what needs swotting up on??! I have read that BA no longer do maths tests, yet others have told me that they still do... can anyone clarify this for me (and also the kind of math invoved would be great too!)
Cheers!

Hi All,
I cancelled my interview on the 12. because I work for EZY in Germany for a really good money but only Eurofleet. Thought it's the same as flying for EZY but with a nicer uniform and some nightstops....but now I'm not sure if it was the right decision ( mixed fleet )....2 other colleagues have their interview tomorrow/next week......curious what they will tell me..

Hello
Would anybody be so kind and tell me what the group task consisted of? Was the group exercise like the Virgin's ...cards and stuff, or was it playing roles as well?
Thanks so much in advance

For those of you that have an assessment day...don't panic! It's the most relaxed cc interview i've been and the most friendly.
However, make sure you're fully clued up on BA and the products and services it offers to customers. Also you will get asked the same questions that were on the online application form but you must give different answers though. Just have lots of examples ready and do your research and you'll be fine!
For the group interview, you will be given scenarios about passenger entertainment and care on along train journey and decide what to do and what items to take with you.
Hope this helps and good luck
Also, i've applied to gatwick and have been waiting since the beginning of September for a training date....does anyone know why it is taking so long or when training dates are likely to be? Thank you

I don't think they did, but i was so excited when they rang me that i wasn't listening properly so i might have missed that bit! the lady gave me a number to ring if i need to ask any questions so i'll probably be giving them a ring next week to ask them to repeat practically everything!
I can't wait to get started now after having waited so long...

Congrats on your start date mk124!
here is what happened at my BA interview:
My interview was for Gatwick on the 17th. All was fine till I got to Hatton Cross and got on the wrong bus along with another candidate and ended up at Waterside, what a muppet I was late so along with another girl, I was put onto the 12.30 assessment. They were really nice about it but I felt sooooooooo silly and dim. Make sure you get on BA bus number 4 to Cranebank!
Anyway, I got talking to the other candidates, we were measured and had to sit in the jumpseat and do the brace position in front of everyone. Lots of the girls were in skirt suits but several wore trouser suits. There were about 20 of us total.
For the group assessment there were 6 of us and 3 assessors taking notes. We had 5 minutes to introduce ourselves to the group-not 5 minutes each, as in for all of us. Then we had a group task involving a travel agency and customer complaints. Standard group task really! Lasted 30 minutes.
Then the 2 on 1 interview was quite intense, had a purser and an interviewer asking questions. One of them would ask questions and the other would write, then they changed over. They asked things like: 'tell me about the people in your group test, what were they like?'
'what role did you play?'
'when have you been upset at work?'
'tell me about dealing with an angry person.'
'when have you provided good customer service,'
'why do you want to be cabin crew?'
'how do you integrate yourself in a team?'
'when have you been thrown in the deep end?'
'when have you dealt with someone from a different ethnic background?'
I haven't heard back yet so I'm not sure how it went,
Everyone I met was really nice and tried to put us at ease.
I have had another email inviting me for a LHR interview but I've emailed them as surely I can't go for another exact same interview and have to fill all those forms in again...

mk124 congrats on your interview...
Katie, I'm keeping my fingers crossed...I'm sure, you did well.
I have my interview on the 31st .....wooo-hoooo so happy
....but now I am getting a bit nervous. 
Could anyone please help....they've said that I sould bring the NIN - UK national insurance number, but since I don't live in the UK, I don't have it...I wrote them an e-mail few days ago, but still no reply
And what I find strange is that I wasn't asked to bring any school certificates???? is that normal for BA? or should I give them a ring?
Thanks a lot for your help
bye bye

NI Number
Hey lusky,
I dont think it's a problem... I currently flying for a british low cost airline and when I started I didnt have any National Insurance number... I've been given one, meaning they did all the quick process to get one for me.
So I wouldnt care too much about it and it should be alright.
About the school certificate, I would bring them at the interview, just in case, they need it!
Cheers

Results??!
Hi everyone,
Has anybody heard about whether or not they have got the job at Eurofleet from last weeks interviews (16th to 20th Jan)?
I think BA said five working days or more but I know that 2 people from my interview day (16th) have definitely got the job - infact they were contacted the very next day!
Cheers
Oli
