Sali Demo Dolly

The interview involves numerous group exercises (with 8 or 9 other people) and language testing. The group exercises are quite straight forward, just observing how you handle working with people, how you handle different challenges, your language/communication skills etc. The language testing is made up of writing essays (in German, French and English) to assess written ability and then a personal interview in each language to judge your oral capability. Or it did a few years ago.

They are currently desperate for FAs, so best of luck!

And now back to more jokes!

Thanks for the info Azzurra... How strict are they on French?
Hey, chicken_or_beef, did you ever get this one on a Dhaka flight:
"Sister, sister, I have been pushing your button for 30 minutes, and you still haven"t come..."

Must say Ive never had it said to me, but heard of many who have!!
I think my fav. one is being told to "TELL the captain (not ASK the captain) that we want updates on the cricket (Sri lanka Vs NZ in the world cup)every 10 minutes!

I tell you.....there are a million ways I could of answered that and I stood there silent for a full 10 seconds trying to choose what way to go.

I decided to reply (sweetly)"yes sir I will make the captain aware of your request but Im sure he will be busy doing something a little more important (then loud and rough) LIKE FLYING THE PLANE!!!!!!!!

How did he THINK we were gonna get from A to B?????
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Yes Sir, our orbiting Mc Donalds docking station will be reaching us in a few minutes, please be patient..."
