QANTAS MAINLINE PILOT INTERVIEW PREPARATION
PREPARE FOR YOUR QANTAS MAINLINE PILOT INTERVIEW
A Qantas Mainline-specific preparation and coaching system.
Designed to help you understand what to prepare, build strong interview examples, practise your responses and improve your performance before interview day
Complete Preparation Package: | $495 NZD
Built from experience — not theory.
Practical experience, a deep understanding of airline selection, and a genuine focus on helping pilots prepare properly.
Current B787
airline pilot.
I’m currently flying the Boeing 787, bringing current airline operational experience and a practical understanding of the standards, behaviours and professionalism expected in a modern airline environment.
Three Qantas Group
interviews. Passed all three.
I’ve personally sat and passed three Qantas Group pilot recruitment processes, giving me first-hand experience of preparing, performing and being assessed through airline selection.
Experience on the
other side of the table.
Prior to aviation, I worked in a corporate environment where I conducted behavioural interviews and made hiring decisions.
My Flight Deck Prep brings these experiences together to help pilots prepare for the interview in front of them — not just another generic airline interview.

OUR 3 STEP PREPARATION SYSTEM - WHAT YOU’LL RECEIVE
Build your foundation.
Before you practise your interview, you need to know what you're preparing for and have strong examples ready to draw from.
Qantas Mainline Pilot Interview Preparation Guide
A research-led guide designed to help you understand the Qantas Mainline recruitment process, focus your preparation and build your knowledge before interview day.
Qantas Mainline Pilot Interview Question Bank
A structured collection of representative interview questions covering the key areas you should be prepared to discuss during your Qantas Mainline interview.
Build Your Interview Answers Workbook
Guided worksheets to help you identify your strongest experiences, structure your examples, map them to competencies and prepare for likely follow-up questions.
Practise your interview.
Knowing what you want to say is different from actually saying it under interview pressure. Practise your answers in your own time and get comfortable responding to the questions that matter.
Practise in your own time.
No need to coordinate schedules with another person. Work through targeted interview questions, record your responses and build confidence through repetition.
Receive personalised coaching.
You can practise the same answer ten times and still repeat the same weaknesses. The difficult part is knowing what an interviewer is actually hearing in your response.
And then we coach your answer.
Your assessment doesn't stop at a score. We look beyond the answer itself to understand what you're demonstrating, what you're missing and how your response could be stronger.

Meet Sean.
B787 Pilot · Founder
I’ve built My Flight Deck Prep around one simple idea: preparation should come from real experience — not generic interview advice.
One preparation system.
My approach is shaped by experience on both sides of the interview process — and by working in the airline industry today.
I know what it’s like to be on the other side of the table.
Across my aviation career I’ve attended eight airline recruitment processes and received a job offer every time, including three Qantas Group interviews.
I understand what behavioural interviews are designed to uncover.
Before my aviation career, I worked in a professional corporate environment where I conducted behavioural interviews and assessed candidates for professional roles.
I understand the industry you’re preparing to enter.
I’m currently a Boeing 787 pilot, giving me an up-to-date perspective on professional airline recruitment and the standards expected in the industry.
That combination shapes how I build your preparation.
Real recruitment experience. Current airline perspective. Practical preparation designed for pilots.
Pilots across New Zealand, Australia and the United States have trusted My Flight Deck Prep with their next application.
From professional CV services to interview preparation, pilots are using My Flight Deck Prep as they prepare for their next career opportunity.
Sean helped me present my experience in a much more professional way that also communicated the value of my previous work experience.
Sean completely transformed my application. His structure and format made a huge difference to my application. And he thought of ways to communicate my skills that I hadn't even thought of!

Traditional 1-1 coaching interviews usually provide verbal feedback during or after the session. There often isn’t enough time to go over multiple questions that can be covered in an interview.
This assessment gives you a comprehensive written report that you can refer back to whenever you prepare for future interviews for all the common competency questions airlines usually ask.
Each interview question receives dedicated pages of personalised feedback, allowing you to clearly understand what worked well, what needs improvement and exactly how to strengthen your response.
Put simply: you get more questions covered, more detailed feedback, and you do it all on your own time - for less than the cost of most 1:1 sessions -
