Minchiarello, I think you should re-read the email. It sounds like you got the generic MAY be invited notification, rather than an actual interview. If it were for a genuine interview you would have a specific date and time. Invites should go out next week. I realise English is not your first language, so an easy mistake to make.

Hi Minchiarello,
Dr Eckener's right.
I'm italian and got the same mail too ... a couple days ago elected to phone BA and ask for further info about what I could have expected in the assessment. A girl just told me they were in the process of shortlisting people and that those excluded would have been considered for future selections in 2011. Anyway let you understand depending on what they decide to pursue your application further or not ... funnily enough it's like we meet the requirements to apply but not the flying experience to go on.

Despite minchiarello mistake he does ask a valid question. Does anyone know what to expect on the selection day for those who are fortunate to get offered an interview.

It would be good to know what to prepare for. If you have info and would prefer not splash it all over this forum the please PM me.

Thanks

Leading_edge_190


ps goodluck to all the people fortunate to get shortlisted.

Aviation is, and always will be, all about who was there when the phone rang!

Has anyone else heard anything? I'm a Brit working overseas and have been flying all day today (still got one more sector to go!), so my phone is off. I've logged into the Cityflyer jobs site and my application status is still showing as active. It's a long journey back to Manchester from here, so it would be good to know either way!

Are you rated on type ? Because I would think they are calling rated candidate first.

Hi guys,

Not rated on type. Around 1700 TT, most of which is made up of multi-crew jet time. Was just told the interview will consist of a competency based interview, group exercise and psychometric testing.
