The morning tea is a meet and greet and also their chance to check you out in a group situation. There may be a one on one afterwards. You will meet some management, maybe some crew as well, and you will need to interact with everyone including your fellow applicants. Keep the conversations light and don't forget to show interest in the others with some questions. Brush up on whats happening at JQ, you can check out the news on the JQ site. Don't forget to breathe and smile.

Basically it's to see if you can hold yourself in public and are genuinely interested in the job. Yes, it's a good sign if you are invited to the morning tea, not everyone gets the chance.
Good luck if you get through and let us know how you go.

smileyface, sorry no idea about dates for ground schools. Nothing's ever set in stone with aviation, it happens when it happens you just have to be ready for the ride.

blackbandit what do you mean?

blackbandit after reading all of your 14 posts here on pprune it is obvious you have issues. Why you would spend time posting on this forum when you have such disdain for it's subject matter is beyond comprehension.

I wonder why blackbandit has such a bad attitude? Now he's resorting to swearing at me in pm's, it's quite comedic.

It would lead me to believe he was rejected by the airline or the crew that work for them, either way he's an angry little person that needs some medication. Nurse..........

Good Morning. Sadly, somebody else got there first - somebody much more senior than me in PPRuNe (One of thee Dark Lords of Mordor) - and now blackbandit is no more, banished to the black bowels of the salt mines of Daarg.
We'll miss him...

Does anyone know how long it takes for JQ-dom to get back to you (wether you're success or not) in terms of progression to the next round?

Thanks in advance.

I will be at the 'afternoon' tea in NTL aswell!

Does anyone know the ratio of how many they invite to the afternoon tea and how many positions they are offering??

All you fresh newies!!!!!!!!!! You's are all asking too many speculative questions. Who knows anything about the workings of the recruitment process in the airline business. Go along, have some fun, be yourself. If you are what they are looking for then your in. If your not, then too bad. The main thing I do know what is looked at, is how you will be able to get on with Crew and Pax. If you cant get on with the crew then you got no chance of getting on with pax, hence you will not be any good to the company.

Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!
