      Wing Structures Manual Placement Interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Airbus (Filton, England) in Dec 2025

      Interview

      The interview kicked off with a bunch of basic questions about Airbus. You definitely need to know the company values because they’re really looking for those to be tucked into your answers. They moved into behavioral stuff pretty quickly, asking for a time I made a mistake and what I did to fix it. My advice is to show that you're the type of person who speaks up, notifies the team immediately, and is proactive about resolving it rather than hiding it. They also asked for a time I solved a difficult problem, a time I had to learn something really quickly, and a time I had to deal with conflict or communication issues in a team. After that, it got way more technical. They spent a lot of time asking about how I think wings fail. They wanted me to explain how I thought composite wings fail versus how metal wings fail, and then they'd follow up by asking how I would actually go about fixing those specific failures. They also asked exactly what the wing structures manual is. Honestly, they aren't necessarily expecting you to get every single technical detail right; it felt more like they just wanted to see your thought process and how you approach a problem you might not have the perfect answer for yet.

      Question 1

      What are the Airbus company values? Name a time you made a mistake and what you did to remedy it. Name a time you solved a difficult problem. Name a time you had to learn something quickly.
