I'm there in the morning on Thurs. I think I will make a sharp exit afterwards too as I should be able to get back into work for the afternoon so I don't use a whole days holiday. It is also fun too when you go into the office in a suit and some comedian always says "ha, ha you been for an interview"? I will answer "yes.... yes I have". I hope to start in June, get on with it an all that.

Has anyone got any feedback from their MAPS interview? When do they tell you whether you're the chosen few or not? Do you just arrive, have your interview and then leave?

Socloss,

Had my interview yesterday afternoon buddy, you get the usual 2 people interviewing you and you don't get any feed back, just the usual chance to ask any questions you've got and then your on your way home!

Thanks Danny T,

I assume the Qs are along the lines of why do you want to be a pilot and what do you know about Flybe?

Best of luck to you when the results are out.

So you all want to start in September... Am I going to have any mates?

It was said during my interview at least that they have up to twelve places but there was no requirement to fill them all. If you meet the standard you are in, if you don't then you are not. Flybe would not lower their requirements to just to fill all the places.

Congrats again everyone.

Bummer. Didn't make the grade this time round. Hopefully I'll bounce back and learn from it. I wasn't 100% confident that the interview went well anyway so I'm not massively suprised. It's still gutting though. Any tips from your sucessful interviews guys?

Anyway, I may well still try and come out to Jerez self sponsored if I have to so I might see some of you out there! And congrats to all of you that made it.

Take it easy,

Ben

Ben,

Sorry to hear you didn't make it this time.

Where did you feel you struggled on the interview? I thought the questions were fair but quite tricky sometimes, I must have prepared ok though because I got a place.

At least you've got a self sponsored position at FTE if you want it and you don't have to go down there and do the aptitude tests again!!

I'm not really sure, I guess just some of my answers were a little vague. Perhaps the 'how does it work between the two pilots on the flight deck' and some of the 'tell us about when you've screwed up' type questions.

I'd agree it was fair, I think I just didn't quite pull it out of the bag on the day. But again, well done to all of you, and I may well see you sometime soon.

Sooo Thompsonfly...
