Impulse Airlines Interview Sessions

Hi All,

Am going for an interview session with Impulse Airlines next week in Sydney, just wondering if anyone can give me an idea on what to expect. How long is the actual session, do you get to speak 1 on 1 to someone, what sort of group activities are there and anything else anyone has experienced.

Many Thanks!

stormy

There is a lot about Impulse Interviews in previous topics.
You can make a search (click search on the top of this page) and look for "Impulse" related topics in the last ... let's say 90 days. You'll find plenty of info about the interview process. If you need some advice, just send me an e-mail. I didn't make it to stage II (I was distracted and sat at the wrong table ) but I got a lot of info from "insiders" and I am happy to share it with you if you wish.

Ciao for now.

Cool

Hi people,

Just a word of advice with regards to selection criteria at the Impulse interviews.

From my inside sources, the selection of a particular person as a flight attendant really comes down to whether they like your personality, the way you look, and whether you will fit into the company culture.

Sure the team games they play, etc are looked at, but generally everyone is trying to play the same character.ie. team leader who listens to others, works as part of a team, good problem solving skills, calm but assertive when needed, etc, etc.

At the end of the day, like most jobs, they pick who they like.

Word of advice for those with upcoming interviews. If you can't handle the prospect of being based in Hobart, then don't waste their time by showing up for the interview. Odds are, that is where your position will be allocated. Like it or lump it!

Anyway, take out of this advice what you will.

Good luck.

Hi,

Thanks all for your help! The interview seemed to go well, but then its always hard to tell! Nothing heard back yet so I'll just hang in there and see.

FYI bases they are recruiting for are Sydney and Hobart.

They are at the very end of their recruitment now, they have taken on just over 120 FA's recently.

Cheers

nick,

Im under the impression that Impulse have enough crew in MEL and dont know of any further recruitment in the near future. However if the rumour was true I would think the recruitment would be for HBA and SYD bases.

Hi,

We were told at our interview last week that the MEL base was full and they will not be recruiting for this base in the foreseeable future. They may be interviewing there for Hobart positions though?

A majority of the recruitment was for a Hobart base, however there are still "a few" poisitions available in Sydney.

They are at the very end of the recruitment process now, she did say that only had a "couple" of sessions to go before it was over.

Jerry, training sessions will be conducted in Sydney, during mid/late June.

Thanks to everyone for their help prior to the interview, especially Mrs FJ, i'll keep you updated!

Cheers

Hi All,

Got my rejection letter on Friday, so currently exploring other opportunities (mainly pilot related).

Thanks all for your help!
