Prepare for Each Step of your Airline Interview with Global Pilot Coaching Experts - Pinstripe Solutions

This on-demand course is specifically for Cadet Pilot candidates. We train you in each aspect of your airline assessment, so you can perform at your best

You have landed here (excuse the pun) because your dream is to become a commercial airline pilot, one of the most fulfilling and sought after roles in the world.

We know you are up against thousands of candidates, especially for fully funded cadetships at major airlines. We also know, that it comes down to your performance throughout the assessment tasks, on the day.  

The airline needs to see your potential and you want to deliver to the best of your ability.  

  • Did you know airlines like you answer questions in specific formats?  
  • Do you want to know how to use your transferable skills to prove your ability to the airline?
  • Have you thought about the question 'Why do you want to be a pilot?' without talking about 'travel' or 'an office in the sky?' Which are no-go reasons.
  • Do you know how to pick the best examples from your life and/or work experience to help you stand out?

 

We are here to help.  In fact, we have prepared thousands of pilots for over 40 airlines globally. 

The Cadet Pilot Airline Interview Preparation Course will answer your questions, train you in the SOP's and enlighten you as to what airlines want to see.

This video course is the ultimate preparation ahead of an intensive one-on-one coaching session with one of the expert Pinstripe Airline Interview Coaches.

This Option B 'Cadet Pilot Video Course' does not include the Aviation Interview Success Workbook. If you would like the Cadet Video Course + Workbook (which is yours to download and keep) please select Option A Cadet Pilot Airline Interview Preparation Bundle, using this link.

Are you ready to walk into your airline assessment having done everything you could to succeed?  

Then let's get started!

Testimonial - Don't just take our word for it

George T, Captain, over 20,000 flying hours
 B787, B777, A340-300/500, A330-200, B747-200/300 

"In 2017, after 24 years of constant employment in the Airline Industry I was forced to take time off work to deal with a family crisis. Sixteen months later with crisis resolved I was once again in the market but faced unique challenges including my lack of currency. 

I purchased the Pinstripe Interview Success Workbook and followed it up with a 1 on 1 coaching session with Tanja. The workbook helped me prepare the foundation for my upcoming interviews but it was the 1 on 1 coaching that revealed weaknesses that had crept into my psychology as a result of recent events and together with Tanja and Kirsty, turned it into strengths. It was a team effort and thanks to Pinstripe’s commitment to its customers I was soon back in the left seat of a B787 where I felt most at home. 

Being a new joiner when Covid appeared I was once again unemployed and am now out of currency again! Except this time I know I can get back into it as I have already done it once before.
To prepare for upcoming interviews I am now using Pinstripe’s ‘Essential Interview Coaching Video Course for Pilots and Aviation Workbook’ as a refresher. This is a powerful package. The workbook is thorough and easy to follow and the videos are excellent!

This course covers everything I learnt from my previous experience with Pinstripe and a whole lot more. It offers clear guidance and direction, methods and techniques and plenty of practise so that I know I will be ready - as I was last time - when I'm sitting before an Airline Interview Panel.

Furthermore the skill set I developed through Pinstripe is also transferable into my professional life.

It's worth every penny."
