Tricky questions at interview. Had a friend who had an interview with an airline at LHR and they asked something like this:
"How did you get here this morning?"
"By car"
"Did you exceed the speed limit?"
"Well to be honest yes"
"Can you justify that?"
I think with hindsight my answer would have been:
"No, it is not possible to get over 70mph on the M25 on a Monday morning"
"How did you get here this morning?"
"By car"
"Did you exceed the speed limit?"
"Well to be honest yes"
"Can you justify that?"
I think with hindsight my answer would have been:
"No, it is not possible to get over 70mph on the M25 on a Monday morning"

thanks a lot
Thanks for your replies everyone, I'm kinda getting the drift of it now
High Wing Drifter - I will check out the website when I'm at home, and can have speakers etc, as I'm currently at Uni.
Also apart from Easy Jet, are there any other companies doing/offering sponsorships? I've had a look through most major airline companies, and can't seem to find many. I know cathay pacific are running one, but I don't think it will be open to non hong kong residents.
Cheers

Critch,
I did a bit more digging and it seems it is now only sold as a training aid and at a whopping £125!!

My guess is critch is applying to join the CTC scheme and then further down the road secure a job with Easyjet but that's a long way off yet. They didn't ask me that particular Q at Stage 3 but if I'm guessing correctly you've probably picked that question off the Kent Uni page.
If I am right in my predictions you will probably find the CTC page of more assistance.

Actually dtur, I didn't originally get it from the Kent Uni website. The careers lady at Uni who helped me with the questions etc, supplied it in copied/pasted format, which is how I got the link to this website, and boy am I grateful now for this website
Also High Wing Drifter, thanks for the links, I will look tomorrow when I'm more awake and alert.

A320 or B737?
I have absolutely no idea on which aircraft to train for my ATPL (between A320 and B737). So what should I get in consideration for my decision? (sorry if I've done some english mistakes but it's because I'm "more fluent in Italian" , although I think I'm not so bad in English...)
Thanks
James
