Hi grace

I have a friend who is going down for his FB in a few weeks. I am sure I could see if he could e-mail you and give you a bit of info if you would like?

All the very best, let me know how you get on!

Oi Claire dont forget me! A guy replied to me sayin...

1. Be yourself in the interview, not someone you think you are, you think they
want you to be, or someone you think you should be, they are not stupid.

2. Get the written exercise down in your head before you turn up. Just think
logically about it, they don't want qualified pilot jargon so just be logical
about it, whats sort of thing pleases customers and what wastes/saves money?

3. Treat the groups exercise VERY seriously. Again be yourself, and remember
good team working envolves listening aswell as speaking!

Please share any of your info madam!

BigBadDon & grace,
I have my FB next week, if you research BA via both their website, appropriate magazines such as Flight int. and Airlines monthly e.t.c. and also in newspapers so that you have a good foundation knowledge of strategies, fleet and business that should help. In addition to this as many people have probably said, be yourself! Try to have a couple of examples other than your application examples of team working, leadership.... There is also a book which deals with interview questions which will help your general interview technique, title is something like 'The toughest interview questions answered.'Bright red cover! Sorry I cant be more helpful.
I may be the person Mister Geezer was refering to, e-mail me and we can help each other. United we shall stand!
