I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Flight Centre Travel Group (Exton, PA) in Dec 2017
Interview
The interview with the Flight centre confirmed my opinion that all big companies announce from time to time that they are hiring. This is part of their policy to mislead the public that new jobs are created and the economy is “growing”. This is what they are instructed to do. It is convenient for the companies because interviewing people they spend their working hours in useless interviews, and justify their salaries. They don’t need new staff, but the people who managed to get a job there because they are relatives or friends, they have to pretend some kind of work to keep the salaries coming.
My interview was fast – 15 minutes on the phone, which assured me that I won’t be hired. I received at least 15 email reminders for that interview. I answered all questions positively – location close to home, experience in the travel industry, availability to work at any time, agree with the salary and commission structure, everything that qualified me to be on the top of the list (if any). The interviewer gave me information about the company, and everything what she was instructed to say robotically to anyone without any intention to hire. She was in a hurry because she delayed 10 minutes for my interview and she had to catch up.
One day after the phone interview I received a negative email that the company decided not to continue with me. Not a word why.
I interviewed at Flight Centre Travel Group (Sydney)
Interview
Phone interview- asked general why would you be a good fit, tell us about yourself, whats a situation that went pear-shaped and what did you do to resolve it, fav destination and 3 reasons why you should go. I didn't get an offer because apparently other people had a bigger passion for travel so push that i guess
