Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

I'm in the Engineering/Design track and was proposed two positions, both in Toulouse, but have not heard back about the AC.

I have two questions that the forum might be able to help me with.

1.) Do the proposed positions represent the first rotation in the program, or is it the intended final position?

2.) Will EADS reimburse us for the costs during, to, and from the AC, or do we have to privately finance the trip?

Thanks for any information.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

hello there,

i'm not an expert, but trying to answer your questions :-)
1) as far as I understand there are no rotation within Progress. you keep your position for two years - so during the whole Progress duration... you

2) they pay for the hotel and will arrange your transportation for you too

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

I totally agree with you, too. Sophie ignored my e-mails lots of times and other applicants felt like me, too. It does not take more than 1 minute to reply to those mails OR to update the applicant's status on the e-recruiting web. I will try to find an official way to make a strong complaint against her attitude to the HQ of EADS. I feel very much indignant about all those days she has made us to wait for without ANY NOTICE.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

I'm assuming that all of the design engineers have been notified of an AC? I was notified in April that I passed the phone interview, but was never informed if I was matched with any job. I'm currently located in Japan and was thinking that I would get the AC in Singapore. I'm assuming that this has already passed? I've already given up hope, but thought maybe there was a shred of a chance.

In the end, how many design/manufacturing/system engineers have been invited to the AC? Reading through the comments here, it looks like 90% of the people invited come from the HR or Management track.
It would be nice to know if the deadline has been postponed after June, of if people have to give up right now...

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

I am bitterly disappointed in (1) the way the AC was conducted, and in (2) the fact that I was not offered the position.

(1) The fact that several (possibly all) PROGRESS streams were given the same 3 unimaginative and boring exercises does not make sense to me at this stage of the recruitment process. I applied for a very technical job, and I expected the AC to assess something other than my acting skills.

(2) Out of all the people competing for the position, my academic achievements were by far the most impressive. Furthermore, I was the only candidate to have significant and relevant work experience. (Yes, I did check the competition!)

However, it is merely the most friendly/outgoing of us who ended up receiving the offer.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

Does anybody have any concrete figures for salary (especially in the engineering tracks)?

I only made it to the phone interview stage; however, the figure mentioned by the recruiter was up to 50'000 Euros depending on location, which doesn't seem like an awful lot for people with a Masters degree and a year of work experience.

Does anybody know more?

Hi, i am currently still in college (aerospace engineering)but i was wondering what grades you actually need to participate in the programme?

Thank you for your help and good luck ;)

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

Apparently they don't really watch the grades. I know a guy who got to the final 360 this year (phone interview) with a high 60's average. I got just as far as him with mid 80s (both mechanical engineers).

Are you doing your bachelors or masters? And I assume you mean 45-50k salary after completing a masters?

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

Salary means nothing alone. You live way better in Toulouse with 35k? than with 50k? in London. But yes, it is true that the figure can go up to 50k for EADS HQ in Munich for a support stream for example. For an engineer in Toulouse you can expect 35k.

As for the grades, you don't need specific grades to participate to the scheme.

Hey everyone,

I hope you all had a great Christmas time.

I read all your comments and recommendations here - I find it very helpful as I am planning to take a part in this process. Does anyone attempt to submit their applications for the January deadline as well?

To all experienced, would you have any advice/tips for totally new people willing to try becoming a PROGRESS candidate? I am interested in Communication or Marketing stream. I would appreciate any help and listen to your experience - my contact e-mail: pokorska86@gmail.com.

Thanks!

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

Hello all,

For me:
Problem-solving capacity - standard (100)
Diagram analysis (98)
Reasoning (98)
Leadership motivation (reserved vs. dominant) (42)
Active pursuit of innovation (13)
Outgoing nature (27)
Team orientation (40)
Customer service mentality (78)
Propensity for conflict (45)
Willingness to learn (73)

My feeling is it fits not too badly, except for the innovation which I definitely pursue actively :)

In addition there is comments for each score, giving some explanation for the behaviour (like can work within team but still comfortable to handle job on its own, etc.).

Good luck to everyone!

I think this results - the ones regarding the social/personal skills - may be lower than expected to some of us because instead of giving extreme answers we tried to keep it real, by answering using maybe 25-40% / 60-80% instead of 0-20% or 80-100%

When you do such tests more often, you will see you improve easily.

I have done a few of this tests already for other companies, and they are somehow similare (and if Kienbaum is the provider, you even realise you know some of the graphs :D). Actually in my opinion the EADS test was one of the easier once - but maybe just because I do not like verbal tests.

You can find some pages in the internet where you can prepare for such tests. A good one is for example SHL.

How do you understand the Propensity for conflict perectage? If you have a high score does that mean that you are more likely to egt into conflicts and if you have less percentage than not? I'm confused.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

The way I see it, Customer Service Mentality and Propensity for Conflict are the two items where a higher score isn't necessarily better.
A high score in CSM would mean that you would bend over backwards to meet a customer's requirements at the expense of other duties and priorities. A higher score in PfC would mean that you would be willing to pick a fight with someone and cause problems within the team just to prove a point or to settle a personal conflict.
Just my opinion though. Don't know what you guys think.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

I don't think that a high percentage is customer mentality is negativ at all. The description says:
Customer service mentality describes the importance accorded to the needs of customers and partners,
and to solving their individual problems. People with high scores on this scale are not just intent on exactly
understanding a customer?s concerns, but they also enjoy providing the service that best corresponds to
those concerns. To that end, they are also willing to let their personal needs take a backseat. This ability
also makes it easier for them to deal with difficult partners, and helps increase customer satisfaction.
People with low scores on this scale, on the other hand, tend not to put customers? concerns so obviously
first.

If you have 75 or high it says that:
Based on your responses on the test, you have an above-average inclination to respond to the needs of
others and to commit yourself to solving their problems. Accordingly, you consider it particularly important
to understand and meet the expectations of your customers. You feel especially gratified if you can provide
the best possible solution to others? requests.

We almost all have focused mainly on the first three sections. Perhaps the personality scores are way more important than we assumed...

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

Hello mates,

It seems that everyone who reached the telephone interview stage already can be quite happy.

I am rarely asking for advice; however this time I am kind of nervous as there is no information in which language this interview will be. Are there questions in German, French or another language (except English/native language?) Is anyone of you, who already did it, willing to share experience concerning this point ? I would be very grateful.

Maybe you had in the past a benefit of something I or someone else posted at this very helpful board, that?s why I hope I will receive some feedback on my question :). Thx!

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

Hey everyone, I got my rejection letter yesterday. My scores were (49) (61) and (69) for the first three. I'm pretty sure my scores were not good enough, however this was the first time I have taken such a test and found it to be very difficult, not to mention strange.

I'll start practicing lot more aptitude tests now, and I'll definitely be re-applying for Progress next year!

If anyone knows of some good sites to practice these sort of tests, or prepare for them in any way, please let us know!

Good luck to those who made the cut!

P.S. to the person who posted above me, I would assume the interview would be in the language in which you applied for the program.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

It will be in English, that's for sure. Or at least be prepared for it.

Kienbaum is a german company so maybe you'll have the chance to have somebody speaking German, but I highly doubt that you'll be able to do the interview in French, Italian or Spanish (unfortunately :) ).

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

Practice this kind of test really helps a lot. You find some good information for instance here: http://www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departmen...

UK universities seem to prepare their students better for this procedure than universities from other countries. Search at Google a little bit and you will find a lot of advices from the career pages of UK universities.

One good recommendation of this webpage is http://www.shldirect.com/practice_tes...

I hope this will help you for next year.

Concerning your answer about the language of the interview: Did not everyone have to apply in English? I think questions in other languages are possible - but are they very likely?

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

All communication (written, phone interview, assessment center) will be in English only. You definitely should prepare the phone interview, as there might be some "hard" questions (e.g. "Describe a situation where you found an innovative solution to a difficult problem") And always have an example at hand...

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

This goes to the guys from EADS/Kienbaum, who most certainly watch these dialogues as well...

Having seen other assessment centers/methods meanwhile, that consist of an online part as well, I must say that the PROGRESS System is shallow. It seems that you guys willingly accept to be tricked upon by people knowing the right answers in advance etc. and making an application to the program a matter of sheer luck.
In the end it is EADS that will suffer from candidates that ain't necessarily the best, but the best prepared.

Good Luck

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

I wondering - why you think so? With which method can you cheat at the online test of EADS which is not applicable for other online tests? I think already the psychological questions avoid that a friend is doing your test. So what else?
I guess the people of EADS/Kienbaum are aware that this possibilties exist and therefore they also consider your CV,...

Do you have practical improvement suggestions?

Actually preparing well isn't a bad attitude. However you should always keep in mind that an application also needs luck. Otherwise you can continue to complain about the people who get the job with connections and so on - life is not fair.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

had phone interview today.

they said it takes up to one month for the results.

it's split into 3 parts, first general questions about eads - you should read about it, then about the aviation industry in general.

then problem solving questions for you when you have to give a lot of examples - such as hard situations you dealt with and how, what is your biggest achievement, what is your biggest innovation, what do you think are the biggest challenges for the future of eads/aviation/you.

the last part is the online assessment, when you have to give feedback and solution for three business cases, mostly team-management and project management oriented.

i cannot say more, but i can say good luck to you guys! its not easy, i suggest you be rested and think about your goals beforehand!

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

My interview was a bit different, the first part about the company was similar, what do you know about the company, some business numbers, who is the ceo...
The third was also the same, but the second part was different. i had rather the classical interview: "tell us something about you/your cv, why did you choose this university or that internship, what are your strengths, weaknesses, what would you like to achieve in 5/10 years...
I applied for the marketing track, maybe the interviews differ according to the track?

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

I guess it is different - as my interview was also different to your two descriptions. The focus was definitely on your described "second part".

I just had the typical question about why I want to work for EADS and nothing from the aviation industry or the industry sectors itself. Would not really say that was are "part" - more an introduction part to the main interview.

Therefore I had to answer to quite a lot of this question "Tell me a time..." - that is also why I hardly remember what it was, but nothing too tricky. I just was wondering that it was nothing direct about my weaknesses and challanges - guess that is what they asked between the lines and I did not got it ;-).

This situation part was in my opinion a bit strange, as I did not got it why we had to read it online instead of the interviewer telling us the situation. Nothing difficult and I wonder how they evaluate it.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

Well, one can back up the comment earlier " guys willingly accept to be tricked upon by people knowing the right answers in advance"

Just give it a second thought - after doing a couple of online assessments, I can now think of a way that people want me to be for a certain position and will answer accordingly. I made 100/100 here in leading skills on purpose, when applying for strategy, was no big deal although my guess might have been wrong and I could have answered just one of the questions "wrongly". Others might have done a better guess or pick at guessing their outcome or had a better book to prepare with.

Now combine this with other people's comments from further up: "I knew half of the questions already"

Although the need for a system to sort out applicants is valid, this system has some downsides and EADS will get a pretty high portion of cheaters among their staff. But then again, as one sugggested earlier, cheating needs some skill, preparation and brain as well. Right?

It's either EADS wants this or to spend more money, e.g. in conducting more interviews.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

What you are writing is nonesense. The parts that really mattered were the problem-solving capacity, the diagram analysis and the reasoning. Nobody could have known these questions before.
And if you are refering to the psychological questions: You could only have guessed what they might want to hear from you. So if you know customer service is really important for EADS (which is clearly stated on the webpage) you could have decided to answer accordingly. Anyway the psychological part was not really desicive for getting the phone interview as we have seen from all the different scores above. Which is not cheating by the way.
I think you are just offended because you failed and now try to pinpoint your failure on somebody else, the system, the test... etc. Just except that you didn't do well enough and move on. Nobodys fault but yours.

I passed too, but it doesn't mean that you are invited to the AC. They are going to try to see if your profil fits open positions and only then introduce your profil to the responsible manager. If the responsible manager thinks you are a good candidate you are invited to the AC. Usuall 3 people will be invited for 1 position.

Re: EADS Progress Assessment Center

I can't speak for this year, as I did not apply, but I applied last year and made it to the phone interview stage. This is the information I can provide from this year's cohort:

-over 9600 applicants
-roughly 360 phone interviews
-roughly 250 get to selection day
-maximum 115 get a spot (it was about 98 in the end, based on a guy I know who got in)

I decided not to apply this year, as it was the age that hurt my application last year (I was 20, finishing up my Mechanical Engineering Bachelors, applied for engineering development).

As a result, I decided to tack on a Masters in Management and 2 more internships and will be reapplying next year for either the Strategy or Engineering Development stream, haven't decided yet.
I'll be older then and had more internship experience, which will hopefully help my candidacy.
