The interview was exactly what you'd expect based on other experiences on here. Started off with just some small talk before the interviewer introduced himself and talked about his history and how he ended up doing interviews. The interviewer was a retired captain from Skywest. I introduced myself, then we got rolling with verifying paperwork. I needed to resubmit some things, like my CFI, since it expired between now and the original application date in January. We talked about my logbook, total time, PIC, multi-engine, night, instrument while in the actual airplane, 30/60/90 day, and 12-month flight times. Actual order after this was different, I'm just jotting down things I remember going over.

The interview was an hour long and was everything that AviationInterviews stated it would be. CRM, technical, and behavioral questions. It started with the 30/60/90/365 hour review. It was just a conversation with two pilots, very relaxed setting. It was with a FO who had been there for a year. The technical questions were basic. Make sure to be familiar with Jeppesen charts they were covered quite a... -

The interview was a positive experience. It felt nice to be over prepared and have an idea of what to expect thanks to AviationInterviews. SkyWest was not trying to trick you but it was more of a conversation about your logbook, flying experience and some technical questions. My experience left me excited to learn more about the company and the planes they fly. Follow the guidelines here and you will have no problem walking away feeling good about your answers and that you gave yourself the... -

Overall very straightforward and almost exactly like the other interviews Iâ??ve seen on here. Started with housekeeping items such as logbook totals and verifying when Iâ??ll get ATP minimums, etc. Started with basic HR questions, nothing crazy. Moved into a CRM scenario first. (view the study guide of this website, including the Sim/Scenario section). Went into the technical section which again was very similar to what Iâ??ve seen on the study guide. My interviewer seemed to appreciate... -

The night before the interview I was emailed a release including metar and taf along with two jeppesen approach plates. I spent some time studying the plates and release and found a few things that were uncommon which did come up on the interview including visibility mins and GS intercept/FAF questions. We started with a brief conversation to get to know each other and our respective backgrounds as well as why SkyWest. For technical I was asked questions, (view the study guide of this...
