  • Interview started promptly at 08:00 as I was met at the front desk and taken into an office area where I handed over my logbooks and identification, licenses, medical, etc., After about a seven minute wait they led me to meeting room with two other people present. They were the chief pilot and two experienced HR specialists. After exchanging names the process began with tell me about your flying career and how it matches up to your resume. That was an opportunity to explain a summary of each former pilot position held and the positive experiences I gained from each. This took about twelve to fifteen minutes after which the three professionals took turns asking...

    Easygoing interview. Unfortunately did not have the multi time nor the turbine time they were looking for. Hoping to apply once again when I do. Initially met as a group discussing the operation, then took us in for one on one interviews. as they are hiring for very near dated class dates to the interview it was a simple and quick interview with two pilots. Felt more like a conversation. We looked over my resume and that was pretty much...

    Very relaxed with Bob and Dave. Gave a run down of how things are at ABX, walked through your resume and why you'd be a good fit. Couple of questions pertaining to a Jepp chart. Nothing scary. Looks like they are aggressively hiring for the foreseeable future. Not a bad place to get experienced from low timers. I would be commuting in to base so will have to use the commuting policy and take advantage of the longer...

    Met near MIA airport with two retired pilots. Both guys were extremely friendly and even told us to remove our ties which I personally thought was kinda cool. They gave us an orientation about the company and told us why they were hiring and what we can expect at training and what to expect from ABX in general. The questions weren't that tricky and honestly felt like pilots talking to pilots. Biggest questions that stuck out to me were "WHY ABX" and "Why not UPS?". Which...

    The interview was very much as described already on here. A company presentation was given that lasted about 45 minutes. Then all candidates were sent to a waiting room and interviews were conducted one on one. They reviewed documents and went through past work history. Basic HR questions regarding checkride failures & background checks.  Technical questions on an approach plate- read the notes for the answer. Very straight forward. No longer handing out CJOs on the spot per HR. Was...

    I was originally scheduled to interview 3 days ago in Cincinnati but couldn't make it due to flight cancellations at La Guardia. After notifying my HR contact she said Bob from the hiring team would be flying out to interview me and another stuck candidate on Monday. The fact that they are willing to fly an interviewer out to you when flights get cancelled speaks volumes. Come Monday we met at the assigned location and the interview itself was very laid back. Bob was very pleasant to deal...

    I couldn’t make it to my actual interview session that was schedule in CVG 4 days ago due to flight cancellation because of weather. The flight was booked by the company. Another candidate and I were stranded in LGA and fortunately enough the DO flew into New York the next Monday and were able to meet him at a hotel  in Rockville Centre. Quite informal conversation, took place in the lobby of the hotel. Bob was a very nice guy we set with him one at a time and after checking...

    Interview was a relaxed conversation. The guys are two retired pilots who still love aviation. Makes things very comfortable . They are expanding and need pilots so seniority should grow quickly. They definitely drill in no breaks in training both in the interview and paperwork to follow- almost too much. They send you home with cjo and drug test...

    The interview was not bad. Bob just asked why ABX? Then walked through my work experience. Dan asked what type of plane I was flying for part135. Then they asked me to wait outside for them to discuss. Few minutes later, asked me come in. They told me I need to do a sim evaluation cause I don’t have any Jet hours. 2 days later, Dan called me. I did the sim on B767, instructor Bill let me do take off and vector to ILS approach. All hand flown. Bill said all good he will recommend me. 3...
