Hi Pukka,
I had the usual "pre-interview" nerves, but I settled down quite quickly. I guess its out of our hands now.... How did yours go?

Hi guys im new on here. I know you guys are talking about Heathrow, but i have my fitness and hopefully interview at stanstead on 23rd June. I have had an interview for la fire service before in surrey at passed it, but still quite nervous, What sort of things are the asking. Is it the questions like, "tell me a time when you have helped someone else to achieve a goal?" also have the mentioned when you have ot have medicals? is it as and when aplace comes up or before you go on the waiting list?

Harwichfire: hi mate, for my interview they asked me questions like the 1 you were on about based on the job competencies which are on the web site. no mention of medicals yet, just that i was on the waiting list with the other guys that had passed.

all the questions are pqa related, and you can find the infomation on the website.

pukka i guess there no way of finding out is there i thought about emailing baa just for some kind of guide, as much as i'm happy could be a long wait.

Congratulations guys. I really have no idea how many we are recruiting now, but I will dig a bit on Wednesday when I go in. Looking forward to getting my hands on you for your phase 2 (BA) training.

Swiftfire, The truth is, at the moment no one knows how many we need and I believe there are a couple wanting to transfer in from other BAA airports,
 I have no idea whether they get priority or not.
