bmi waiting.........

[M13]

Not much seems to have been written by the bmi cadet applicants. Now all of the interviews are over and bmi are making their choices this week its just a matter of waiting.

So as soon as anyone hears anything let us all know.

Good luck to everone who was at the final stage.

I was at the final stage for BMI over 2 weeks ago ( not the most relaxing experience)-still not heard yet either, although I feel it didn't go that well.
What I did hear about though was Atlantic Flight Training pulling the plug on the PASTS sponsorship I had with them.
My aviation future suddenly looks a lot bleaker than it did about a month ago.
Good luck to M13 and everyone else who went to the final BMI interview

Not much to say really. Now it's just a question of waiting for the letter followed by either ecstatic joy or crushing dejection...

We await the final judgement!!

Good luck to everyone who took part!

Hi Gang,

Just a quick one to officially declare my membership of the “bmi please send me a nice letter” brigade. Mine was on the 25th May and went ok’ish. I thought the interviewers were nice enough given the circumstances and the actual interview wasn't too bad.

They told me the news would be out within two weeks but it looks as though we might have to wait a bit longer.

Anyway good luck to everyone - fingers crossed!!

[HazardWarning]

On past years experience, or so I am informed, you should expect a phone call not a letter, letter = bad, phone call = good!!!

[M13]

In that case lets all hope that we all get a nice phone call.

There doesn`t seem to have been many PPRuNers going for the bmi sponsorship on the evidence of the posts on this thread and other recent ones. Either that or everone is keeping quiet!!!

So as I return this thread to the top of the pile I invite any shy bmi candidates to share their experience with us.

Happy Waiting

I was told that we'd know before mid-June at the latest so I'm expecting to hear before the end of next week. They'd better hurry up before I actually cr*p myself.

[schooner]

I feel sick. Its bloody torture isn`t it.

cheers all

[WAIF-er]

I'm keeping quiet!

All I will add is that as each day passes and I hear nothing, the more doubts I have about possible success. Stupid really, because in reality, I have as much chance of success tomorrow as I had yesterday.

Interview didnt go as smoothly as i wouldve liked it too. Definately a case of the nerves - seems to be a common occurance from what ive read in previous posts. A shame, since the questions really werent that bad.

Im in the same boat as you schooner - anyone even mentions bmi and the stomach starts doing back-filps!

[BigAir]

Well at least no one appears to have heard today! the waiting oesn't get any easier no matter which airline it is for, or how well you think you did in the interview. Hopefully we will all know by the end of this week!!!

Eagerly awaiting aswell, Good luck all

So I phoned bmi today and asked when they expected to release the results and they said that they were waiting for official confirmation of the numbers before they make any phone calls. This is likely to be at the end of the week.

In the mean time I am left pulling my hair out and finalising details for an alternative sponsorship that is not as attractive as bmi.

Lets hope that they finalise things pretty quick. All this waiting is sending me insane

Once again good luck and happy waiting.

[schooner]

You lot, please stop posting on this thread. Every time I see the number of posts has increased I think somebody may have heard something

Hang on, thats what I`m doing now " hello pot, kettle calling ? " Aaaaarrgh !!!
Now, is it the red or blue pills I should be taking

happy waiting

With the way that operational requirements change from week to week you never know, they may now need 74 cadets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AffirmBrest]

Or none! Oops...

This is fun

[Waldo P Barnstormer]

Fun! this is driving me mad (cue rocking back and forth captive polar bear style), never mind the aptitudes, interview or presentation this is definitely the most stressful part of the application.
Good show M13, now I can stop calling home every 10 mins to see if the letter/call has arrived. Roll on Friday....

Best of luck chaps

Waldo.

[travelkev]

So how did everyone find the final BMi interview stage? Was it the grilling you expected? How were the presentations?

[Turned and Slipped]

I've got to agree with Waldo, I thought the stages were bad enough but it's nothing compared to this waiting lark.

Maybe it's part of the application, to see if your still sane after weeks of waiting.

Good luck everyone

Cheers M13 for calling them.

I am away all day and night on Thursday, so I bet that is when the calls will go out. (who's saying I will be called!)

Schooner - now that youve said that, I'm gonna make a new post every day!!

I've had to buy some false nails to chew on today, cos mine have all gone.
