Interview experience:
ATA Interview
Show up in Indy the night before the interview- they put us up at the la Quinta right next to the airport. Get up the next morning for the free continental breakfast and check out of the hotel. An ATA van will pick you up around 7:45 to 8:00am. They will take everyone over to ATA headquarters for the interview. There were 7 guys in my group.
At HQ, they take you into a briefing room to start filling out paperwork which includes a 24 month training contract. While doing paperwork- several people came in to talk to us about the company including the Chief Pilot- Dave Lindskoog. All were very friendly and extremely informative. Told all of us that if we were hired we would be going into the 737-800. Each one of us was taken individually to do 2 separate interviews- one with HR and one with a pilot. Everything was pretty straight foreward. Questions they asked were:
HUMAN RESOURCES
Tell me about your flying carreer up to this point?

How do you fight complacency on a long flight?

How do you keep yourself motivated?
