Virgin Australia pilot interview questions and selection process
How Virgin Australia selects pilots: 5 selection stages. Use them to practise; they are examples, not official answers.
Selection stages
- Online application/EOI
- Talent team eligibility review
- On-demand video interview (background + role questions)
- Assessment Centre in Brisbane (competency activities, team dynamics, simulator assessment), business attire
- Outcome advised on the day; 12-month wait to reapply if unsuccessful
Tests
- Online psychometric testing (PPRuNe 2017-18); one 2024-25 poster says VA used a 'COMPASS' test
Simulator check
Simulator assessment at the Brisbane Assessment Centre (profile not published).
By rank
- First officer: B737 First Officer is the only role with published requirements.
For practice only: general examples, not official answers. Pilot Jobs International accepts no responsibility for how they are used; prepare your own answers in your own words.
