Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend British Airways to a friend?
Yes
Why?
They taught me everything I needed to know and more! I never feel out of my depth and feel that they have prepared me with all the relevant skills and information for my duties. Everyone is so lovely and I have made some good friends through the programme.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to British Airways?
Do your research, specifically on the company as this WILL be asked at interview. Having conducted interviews as one of my duties, we look for confidence, an upbeat nature and someone comfortable in helping others who seem more out of their depth than themselves.
