To achieve their ambitious plans the airline is conducting open days throughout the globe with the aim of recruiting the worlds most talented first officers.

It has a large fleet already, with 148 planes including 15 Airbus A380 super-jumbos, and plans to grow to 169 next year, with six more A380s and 13 Boeing 777-300ERs.

The airline has another 200 planes on order, including 75 more A380s and 48 long-range Boeing 777-300ERs.

Whilst the number of new recruits is impressive the competition is going to be tough. Only those pilots who meet their minimum requirements and are fully prepared to tackle the grueling interview process will find themselves with a letter of offer.

Sasha Robinson, Flightdeck Consulting’s principal interview consultant warns “the style of questioning is specifically designed to catch the candidate off guard and really put them on the spot”

Questions of late have included “If you could be any car which would you choose and why?” replace car with bird, fish or planet and you can easily see how a candidate could find themselves sitting red faced and scrambling for some kind of semi-coherent response.

Preparation is the key advises Sasha. “We first send our clients a interview work book to complete as well as online virtual interviews to practise their skills. From there we run two, one and a half hour sessions over skype that follow the Emirates interview format. Following a thorough written debrief our clients are fully prepared for their interview and many have later commented that the Emirates interview was a breeze compared to what I put them through!”

Last year turned out to be a slow year for the recruitment of pilots within both Virgin Blue and Jetstar whilst non-existant in Qantas Main Line.

Whilst the numbers may be large competition for the available positions will be tough.

For those pilots seeking employment with Virgin, Flightdeck Consulting recommends starting your preparation early. Sasha, Flightdeck's principal consultant advises " Virgin Blue is known for it's fast track, no bullshit recruitment process, the downside to this fast pace process is that notice for an interview can be as little as two weeks leaving little or no time to prepare for the gruelling behavioural based interview process"

For those wishing to get a head start on the competition Sasha recommends either the "The Complete Airline Pilot Interview Course" DVD or "The Airline Pilot Interview Online Course" (identical content in different formats)

Both course have proved to be incredibly successful and come with unlimited email support from Sasha. For more details visit us at www.flightdeckconsulting.com or email us at info@flightdeckconsulting.com
