BMI Mainline?
Does anyone know about recruitment policies for BMI Mainline?
Can't find much on Pprune (all regional\baby stuff) and PPJN is not much more helpful either...
Is it staffed by ex Baby\Regional pilots? If not do they ever consider low-hour guys?
cheers

BMI (Mainline) bases
Hello people.
Just a very quick one. Does anyone know if BMI Mainline have a proper base at Manchester? ie you could end up based there if you got a job with them?
cheers

Between 45 minutes and an hour long. Nice chat about you, when you have done various things/shown various qualities (eg leadership, done something you didn't want to do etc) and then a brief technical quiz (how do winglets work, what does an FMC do etc). Any questions? Go home and wait for a phonecall, letter on the mat is probably going to be bad news.
They are currently interviewing applicants with the bare minimum for license issue. This interview round is the only one they have planned for this year and they are recruiting for positions rather than a holding pool. The impression I get is that if you haven't secured an interview now you won't get a look in this year, indeed the interview phase may already be over as I understand that A320 sims around the country have been booked up by second stage hopefuls in the last few days!

Great. Thanks for all the help everyone.
Has anyone had and interview? Do they know what it includes and who it's with, ie how many people interview you and they're positions held.
Any ideas on how long you have to wait between interviewing and sim assessment?
Thanks for your help so far StudentInDebt. Have you been through the process yourself?

Does anyone know how long you have to wait between the interview and sim check for BMI mainline?
Anyone know what it involves in the way of SID's, STAR's, Engine failures, Approaches, etc?

Skysunclouds, congrats on getting an interview with BMI. As a matter of interest, who did you apply to? Was it a CV and covering letter? If so who did you address it to?
Many thanks

Does anone have an idea of when the course starts? how many they are taking on, basing policy etc.

I can't believe that someone who has actually been through this assessment hasn't spoken up to answer some of these questions.

Oh, Come ON Guys!
Hi All,
I've got an interview with bmi mainline on 12 Apr, and would really, really, really appreciate some proper answers to the questions posted earlier on roster, bases, interview et al; that's if anyone can remember when they went through it.
Please.
Trotts

Here are some useful tips for the BMI interview.
1) Type "Competancy Based Interviews" into Google and answer all of the questions you can find. This will help...trust me.
2) Learn your last complex type
3) Read "Ace The Technical Pilot Interview" by Gary Bristow about 4 times cover to cover
4) Gen up on the company. Flybmi(duh!!) and wikipedia are very good sources of info
5) Put your right foot out
6) Put your right foot in
7) Do the hokey pokey and turn around
Enjoy
