I interviewed with Comair on 7-24-2001 in Sanford Florida. I was one of the last ones who had to do the simulator ride and written tests. All future applicants will now be required to go to Cincinnatti and take the Cognitive Evaluation computer test and oral interview there. In any case I interviewed with a Comair Senior Captain and a woman from Human Resources. Both were extremely professional, competent and easy to talk to. Most questions on my interview were HR questions about my background as a CFI, my strengths and weaknesses as a pilot. Other questions dealt with how I would treat their customers and my views on image and professionalism in the industry. Technical questions dealt with a groundspeed question (300 kts in 1 minute...how many miles covered?). Others were Class D airpace dimensions, Part 121 minimums for approaches and airspeed restrictions under and above class B. All in all the interview went real well. I would recommend to just be yourself and above all....lose the attitude if you have one. Most airlines are looking for people with whom they can work with and will fit into their team. If you really have trouble working with others, an airline job may not be for you. Hint...if you carry a cell phone...don't carry it into the interview with you! If you don't have it, you can't use it. I was notified in writing 6 days after the interview and I was told to expect training in the CRJ. Comair seems to be poised on something big and is preparing to get even bigger.....upward and onward. Good luck to all!
