Do yourself a favour and throw it in the garbage. It's idd full of (big) mistakes, and not nearly as detailed enough. Makes you wonder how he got through his interviews...

That was the original idea, but then the editors decided to keep all the errors there. Otherwise people answering correctly would start failing assessments because their answers wouldn't be correct according to the old version.

The questions are pretty good actually for preparation however the explanations aren't the best and there are many errors but they are easy to spot and they often miss the point.

I was interviewed for a SO job at Cathay in 2007.
One of the questions I was asked :
"Why does the Anvil form in the mature stage of a thunderstorm "?
Any guesses what the apparent correct answer is ?

Maybe they made those errors with a reason.
This makes you actually search in your ATPL books, so you will find the correct answers in the book. I have been reading also another Job interview book before, and there it states, that people just take everything for granted to easy. Just being lazy and take answers for correct without even thinking about it is to me a sign of bad motivation.
That was why I for example always studied the books before my exams and supplementary used the questionbank. Having actual knowledge is more valuable then just remembering answers.
That is just my point of view.
I have also ordered this book today, to have a bit more a clear idea what to expect, but I WILL also use my ATPL book.
So its all up to you. How bad do you want to have a pilot job and how much effort do you put into it.

I agree, this is more valuable for your first break. Later if you apply by for example Emirates,Cathay etc. you have specific prep. bookwork.
Cost more, but the job interview is going to be a lot different then your first job interview.
I guess at airlines where high exp. is required the questions will be a lot more difficult and more extensive on previous exp. And more knowledge is expected.
Maybe for cadets also useful to read Handling the Big Jets?
Anyone?
