New one-to-one coaching sessions for Emirates, Etihad & Qatar cabin crew introduced

The post pandemic has changed how aviation recruiters shortlist candidates. As most Asian countries are still contending with rising COVID-19 delta variant cases, many governments there have continued to implement partial lockdowns, with their country borders still shut to short term tourists. Their nationals are also not able to leave the country too! This means open days and assessment day trips by these ME3 airlines are not possible. Instead the recruiters are now placing great reliance on video interviews to shortlist suitable candidates. This has extended to every candidate worldwide and not just limited to Asian countries.

Does video interview make it easier for Emirates, Etihad and Qatar to recruit candidates? Yes and no.

The video interviews using Hirevue and the Taleo Artificial Intelligence screening means it is easier to complie the initial shortlist from the big pool of applications received. it also means the recruitment panels back at base in Dubai, Abu Dhabi or Doha can view the candidates recordings over and over again before shortlisting the candidates for further tests including the English Test, other assessments and the final interview. For candidates that makes it through to the final interview stage, the lack of face to face in-person interviews could mean that some suitable candidates who naturally perform better in person could be disadvantaged. In addition, poor broadband connections from developing countries and who live in rural areas and those with older PCs or mobile phones would also be disadvantaged. All of this prevent some very good candidates from getting pre-selected.

For the candidates, shortlisting using this new methodology can be a nightmare as they use different benchmarks for their selection. Recording yourself through video can be nerve wrecking for some.

We have a new product and service aimed at helping candidates who are preparing for their video interview and the final interview. The coaching will be one-to-one via Zoom and everyone who signs-up will get Power point slides covering body language, what recruiters look for, how to give effective answers and finally how to answer some of the most difficult and stressful questions under the clock.

The coaching sessions are GBP£50 per lesson and each lesson has been extended to 90 minutes (previously 60 minutes). This ensures we make it affordable for most candidates and create value from each lesson. The investment will mean you will get to achieve your dreams sooner rather than later.
