About the role
This graduate interview explores how you think about airline customers, routes, sales channels and commercial performance. The panel is looking for curiosity, structured analysis, clear communication and the ability to learn across sales, network, pricing and operations teams.
How to prepare
- Learn how passenger demand, fares, capacity, distribution costs and service experience affect airline results.
- Prepare examples of analysing information, influencing a group and learning a new topic quickly.
- Practise structuring a route, market or sales problem before proposing an answer.
- Review a recent academic or personal project and identify the commercial decisions you made.
- Think about what you want to learn from rotations across aviation commercial teams.
Common mistakes
- Talking about aviation only as a passion without showing commercial understanding.
- Recommending growth without considering demand evidence, costs or operational capacity.
- Giving group-work examples that do not make your own contribution clear.
- Presenting conclusions without explaining the assumptions and evidence behind them.
