Can anyone tell me if it is worth getting the Captians ABC - Airline interview questions explained.?? I've seen different responses but they are all a few years old.
If so, where could I get it from the UK??

The numerical test has a total of 33 questions, a set of data will be given followed by 3 questions for each set... they are just very easy maths. so just make sure u have a gd slp b4 the interview and u will be fine

Big up Flubba !
FlubbaC - Congrats mate ! You've made it to the last Interview mate ! Well done fella !
How was the Second Interview ?
Did they give any trouble with the Eyesight thing ?
I did my First Interview and now waiting with everything crossed for the Stage two call. I would have been very confident of having made it through apart from a silly little mistake I made on the very last question - so silly am still kicking myself.
Anyway , lets hope for the best - let me know about how difficult the Job knowledge thing was , how you prepared and about the stage 2 interview .
Best of luck on Feb 4 !

Hey guys
ive been looking at this website for a loongtime , i feel its about time i contribute to this site!
I jus been through 1a and 1b stages, where initial stages were a series of test that has already been mentioned on this thread and 1b being an interview with 2 HR recruitment specialist, overall i like to remain optimistic, and i think it went reasonably well.
Flubbachany thanks for the heads up, you have provided excellent and very detailed info! wish you all the best on your management interview. I just like to ask a little about your bg if you dont mind, do you hold a HK ID? what did u graduate in?
aer-D, im sorry to hear about your bad news, if you had the chance to do it again, what do you think you would do differently?
If think alot of info has been posted out there about stage 1 interviews, however if anyone has any questions, i be happy to help out.
All the best to those wannabes out there! Never give in,

Hey ProPwannabe,
Just wondering if you're willing to tell me a little bit more about your first interview; possibly some examples of the questions asked? By the sound of it, it doesn't seem to be very technical based, more like a interview to get to know you a little better. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Warm Regards!

Hi all, this's my first post here and I hope someone could clarify me a bit..
I am going to attend stage 1a the coming tue and I'd like to know if there will be any question and answer session right after the oral presentation? Or I will just be free to go right after it? If yes, what types of questions would be asked? Would it be something regarding the presentation topic (training aspect of cadets at CX) or just about myself or something else?
Thanks for any input and congratulations to flubbachany and others who have made it!

hey flubbachany,
there is no fixed time scale for the HR person to call, I got the call for FG just in the afternoon ( my MI was on 0930 in the morning ) , but some of the graders in my batch got the call just 2 days before going to FG. (1 week difference) I can see that there are many variables, like your medical , etc. I know that CP 32 was just graded from 10th to 24th Jan and thier course will start from 2nd of March. CP 33 FG should be hold around late April. Sure the HR is busy with preparing the CP 32 and the interviews for other stage one , two ppl. Trust yourself, you can do it. 9 out of 10 in my batch made it in management interview. Cheers~

OscarGolfIndia, thanks for your input. Seems like you have made a perfect presentation that they didn't have any question! Would you mind sharing how technical you made in your presentation? Did you mention something like the types of propeller (ie. fixed-pitch or variable pitch) on different trainers?
Many thanks for sharing again.
