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. Coffin corner, mach tuck, swept wing advantages and disadvantages, where does a swept wing stall at, how do we maintain roll...

My interviewer was a current Captain who is part of the training department. The interview was very relaxed and covered basic knowledge with no surprises. Both had introductions, asked about recent flight time, aircraft preference, wx, IFR knowledge, approach plate brief, systems, swept wing and turbine theory, CRM scenario, and final... -

Interviewer was very kind and gave me the rundown of how the interview would go. He let me know about himself, his time with the company and wanted to ensure that this felt more conversational than like an interview. Overall, extremely knowledgeable man who seemed to really care about the success of applicants whether or not they were hired. We Jumped right in to discussing high speed aerodynamics. (view the study guide of this website). We then discussed the TEAM model and... -

Interviewed with Ben, FO at SkyWest. Went through introductions. Asked to decode METARâ??s and TAFs. Asked about alternate mins. Asked about electrical system of c182 (current flown aircraft) scenario of extreme turbulence and what to do. I said asked ATC for pireps for smooth air. Basically everything on this site is enough to do very well on the interview. At the end of the interview I was told I interviewed very well. And â??If it were up to me Iâ??d hire you, but itâ??s not up to me,... -

The Interview was with a F/O. He presented himself then asked to present myself. It was 1.5 hours long. About 15 minutes of getting my hours. Make sure you got your 30,60, 90 days and 6 months of past total hours. Make sure all hours are totaled as they want to know multi, XC, IFR, etc. It was about 20 minutes of Hr and the rest was technical. The questions were more scenario based question and went more in depth than what I was expecting. LASHO, ILS critical area. Lots of systems of my... -

Study Jepp charts, WWYD scenarios, know systems and jet engine operations, aerodynamics, brief metar/taf. It is a pretty straight forward interview, but definitely use the study guide as much as possible. Interview was 1.5 hours with a FO who was nice and informative. If you are part of the cadet program, definitely attend their monthly sessions. Overall, it was a good experience, but a challenging... -

The interview was super relaxed. I wasn´t sure at the beginning whether to purchase AviationInterviews but trust me when I say that everything asked was in the guide. My biggest advice is to go to each category, and if you don´t understand the answer completely, Study until you fully get the big picture of it. Be able to explain and give the long answer; don´t just memorize the answer. Is your dream job? Make sure they feel like it matters to you. Be yourself and show them why... -

Started out with some basic instrument questions. Know 91.175, holding speeds and how to brief a Jeppesen approach plate. Then was asked about systems. Had to explain the electrical system on the plane I fly then had to explain how a jet engine works. Then went into high altitude aerodynamics. Ended with some standard HR... -

I interviewed with a two-year FO, and the whole process took about an hour and twenty minutes. We spent around thirty minutes just chatting at the beginning â?? he was really cool and made me feel comfortable the whole time. The study guide definitely gets you ready; everything he asked came from there. The interview started with introductions, then moved into HR questions, followed by a few scenario-based questions, and ended with technical topics. I was asked some HR questions: (view the... -

Very relaxed and quick interview with aa current FO for the CRJ. Started with Logbook totals and typical HR questions. Asked me about the scariest flight I've had. Then immediately went into the CRM scenario, (view the study guide of this website). After the CRM went immediately into airport diagrams, Jepp charts, and airport signs and markings. Very quick and straight forward questions. Asked me to read a fairly difficult METAR including pressure differences, P0000, etc. Had me...
