Hi and welcome to FLY GOSH. Thank You for downloading the Cathay
Pacific interview questions. As everyone is different, it can never be
possible for me to provide the entire questions being thrown to you
during the interview. Same as those on personal questions as everyone
has their own experience and background. What I can do is to give you
a general idea and some favorites question that you will most likely be
asked. I believe that you have an interview coming up or just to prepare
yourself for future interview. Whatever it is, I hope that I can help you
be a better candidate and wish you the best of luck in pursuing your
dream as a Pilot.
