Spoken practice
Airline interview
The questions every pilot interview opens with, plus the competency set with STAR.
Twelve questions in three parts: the opening set every airline interview uses, then behavioural questions on the nine EASA core competencies answered with STAR, then the close and the questions you ask them. Answer with real examples from your own flying, training or work. The report quotes your own words back at you, so a rehearsed paragraph will be visible as one.
The three parts
12 questions, about 22 minutes in total.
Part 1: about you
4 questions, 6 minutes
Motivation and self-awareness. These are the questions the panel has heard a thousand times, which is exactly why a vague answer costs so much.
Part 2: competency and CRM
6 questions, 12 minutes
Behavioural questions on the EASA core competencies. Answer with STAR: the Situation, your Task, the Actions you took, and the Result. Use I rather than we when describing what you did.
Part 3: the close
2 questions, 4 minutes
How you finish, and what you ask them. A candidate with no questions reads as one who did not prepare.
Not open yet
This part opens when SkyStudy leaves beta. It is the one piece that costs money to run every time somebody uses it, so it is not something the project can give away while it has no revenue. Everything else on this page is open now.
What is open now is the material the room is built on: the nine EASA core competencies, the verified employer profiles and the sim assessment guide.
