Not trying to be rude to Mr. Brown Cow... but first of all, thanks for making such a USEFUL comment about my post. I do not know that you happens to be an English teacher. Also, I do not realize you need to have a master degree in English language to be an airline pilot. I am perfectly happy with my workplace English skills and I believe CX is perfectly happy with it. Any more issues?

Just so that I won't pis* Mr. Brown Cow off further... before you continue reading... please keep in mind that there will always be lots of mistake in my post. I do not intend to correct them because I do not see the need to do that in a random chat forum. I always post on the fly in this kind of forum, I never bother to read over what I type. I just type what ever comes to my mind (so I type kind of like I am talking to myself) if you have a problem with that, then that's your issues. In this kind of chat forum, I can care less about some typos or some grammer errors or even many "..." at the end of a sentense... just trying to get my point across and then going to do other more useful and fun things in life...

Anyway, to add to Mr. Brown Cow comments about people in this forum... there are also a lot of arrogant people who believe they know everything in aviation. They put people down and pick on little mistakes just so that they can feel better about themselves. Wonderful isn't it?

Anyhow, one final advice for those applying to CX or who is interested in applying. You can definitly get more information about CX at pprune. pprune is a good starting point about all you need to know about your interviews. Although, you need to watch out, as some guys on pprune are either those who didn't make it into CX or CX wannabe who is contributing on what they heard from different sources. CX HR also visit pprune, so it is a good idea not to use the e-mail address that you submit to the company when you sign up. I've heard that CX HR doesn't like their employees giving out information about the interview process. Also, if you are thinking of applying to CX, get the "Prepare for your CX Interview" by captain XYZ. This book is written by 3 guys who fail their CX interview (This is a true fact that is confirmed by the HR people from CX), but it does provide many useful informations. Just mind you that CX HR people also have a copy of that book so they know as much as you do.

Finally, don't be an a&* during your interview. CX like people who can work in teams and who work well with others. They don't like people who think they are the best or that they are better then everyone else. They don't like people who doesn't like to accept others ideas. They ESPECIALLY don't like people who pick on people mistake and put other people down. CX believe that everyone will make mistakes sometimes in their career and that's why CX promotes everyone to follow the company procedure and work in a team to reduce any possible errors. Also, your personality is probably one of the most important aspect that they look at during your interview process. CX prefers people who can fit well within their cockpit environment. This involves a very flat cockpit authority gradient and having the PNF supporting the PF, which is vastly different then some airlines like Qantas where the captain will always have a higher authority then everyone else in the cockpit even if he is the PNF. CX is also very picky in their company policy, they like people who will always follow the company procedure and never risk it. You can get into a lot of sh&* if you take unnecessary risk even if you think you can get there faster and save the company some money. They rather you get there later and make a perfectly safe approach without any unnecessary risk. Anyway, good luck everyone.
