FTE Aptitude Test

How did the FTE lot find the aptitude tests? A couple were really hard in my opinion 😕

For anyone who hasn’t seen, BA have clarified in an email that this was a mistake and that the original interview you booked is the correct one.

Skyborne Assessment Days

Hi all, Does anyone know what to expect for the assessment day / interview? Will there be assessments or group tasks? Maybe an elongated interview process? Does anyone know from past experience?
Cheers for any responses

Has anyone received any communication yet regarding what to expect from the Skyborne interview?

Happily would have done the multitasking test for the entire 50 minutes as that's the only one I know I did well on. Fumbled on a few which was frustrating, but not overthinking it too much. Back to anxiously waiting for an email..

What sort of thing did you do there? I’m guessing this was for the Skyborne aswell.

Agreed, and the sense of direction I didn't mind. That memory one was something else!!

Horrific!!!

Sense of direction, multitasking and reaction speed I know I aced but the memory one and balls moving definitely were not my friend lol pity too as I did well with the balls in my practice tests but nerves must have got the better of me today 😑

Glad it wasn't just me. I think my downfall, weirdly, is that I over-practiced. I had gotten so used to the practice tests that even though the real tests were only subtly different, it threw me off. Ah well, I've felt like I messed up on pretty much every stage so far, and I'm still here so fingers crossed we'll be fine. Good luck!

Hi there,
Could anyone shed some light on this?
In regards to the Skybourne in-person day at BA Waterside, is it an interview only? or are there further tests to do?

Man those FTE tests were trickier than practice I'd done for last few months. That and nerves, equals a shoddy performance.

Think I managed to get all right on a couple of them, but the memory one was ridiculously hard. Hand eye was also much trickier than expected.

Here's to the next wait, good luck everyone
