Transforms Your Airline Interview Experience
I’ve been flying for 10 years and professionally (not airlines) for 5 years, I’ve been to many ATOs, met many pilots, read books on the subject but never did I understand what the airline interview was all about before following the ASP course, and I thank you for that because it brings so much peace understanding the rules of games.
As I understand it’s not about telling the interviewers what they want to hear by being someone we are not, and it’s not about telling them true stories that has no use for them, but it’s about looking into our past for evidence of the competencies that they are looking for, preparing answers by funneling the key competencies that we have within ourselves and showcase them from past events, discarding irrelevant stuff, thus making their job easier and enhancing a pleasant overall experience.
PS : I just received a positive answer to my interview.
Guidance in Acing Your Airline Selection
I took the Psy2 HOP in September and not wanting to make the same mistake, I took an AIC preparation at ASP, I also added a 1:1 interview supplement with Guillaume. Note that I also passed the Wizzair selections which I succeeded (also in September) The 2 selection processes are different but the AIC allowed me to better understand the expectations of recruiters.
For each of the 2 companies, I did a lot of personal work on the operating mode of the companies so as not to get caught during the interviews. As a good student, I thought about the most relevant examples I could give by filling in the boxes in the excel skills table… a bit laborious but it allows you to sort by choosing the most relevant examples.
I focused my examples on recent flights (< 3 years) but not only, especially the flight that marked you the most… there’s only one and it was 15 years ago!
I really appreciated the 16PF and the debriefing is important to understand, I think about 3/4 were common with the brief debriefing done at the end of the individual psy2 interview.
By understanding the philosophy of the individual interview, I did not go there on the defensive (like the first time) but with the spirit of dispelling the doubts they could express and confirm their expectations. For the group tests, for Wizz or Hop, I made sure to be the good second, to give everyone a chance to speak. I did not chase my nature, I just made sure not to be too enthusiastic. In my case the 1:1 interview was very profitable because I wanted to see the adequacy of the questions asked by the recruiter according to the 16PF without forgetting the debriefing that goes with it… It reassured me about my ability to succeed (even if everything is not in my hands!!!)
I also did a lot of work understanding the skills to guide my answers, without distorting the trait but just by explaining more accurately and clearly arguing. As it is explained in the courses, honesty is important and the preparatory work you do will allow you to bring clarity to your words.

Entretien réussi, résultats attendus !
Ils m’ont demandé la communication avec un capitaine, une situation qui me stresse, un vol difficile et l’acceptation de l’erreur, J’ai eu plus de mal à décrire les compétences humaines que je devais continuer à développer mais dans l’ensemble très correcte. Entretien de groupe j’ai pris soin de bien structurer et de partager le lead comme dans les vidéos, Résultat dans 6-8 semaines !
