QUESTION 4 OF 25

What do you feel is the best way for new staff to receive training?

Ramp Agent Supervisors are ultimately responsible for the training and development of their staff of Ramp Agents with the airline. To get a sense for your experience in this realm, your interviewer is looking to hear your overall thoughts on the most effective ways to train staff. Prior to your interview, it is important to know the key aspects of the job as a Ramp Agent so you can explain that a mix of classroom/reading training mixes well with hands-on training on the ground. Talk about specific experiences that you have training staff during your career, and make sure that your interviewer walks away from your time together knowing that you are committed to the training and development of the Ramp Agents that you would be responsible for in this job.

"Training new staff on the job is really a full scope of classroom style training and on the ground training. With an airline, I envision the classroom setting for training happening for the safety and security measures put in place by the airline, the airport, OSHA and the FAA. I would also envision classroom style training for the software that Ramp Agents use on the job. Once the classroom style training is complete, the hands-on training comes when new staff are learning all of the duties of the job, how to properly load cargo onto an aircraft, and other duties. I am a firm believer that new staff should be assigned to an experienced mentor for at least their first three months on the job."
