    The gouge on this site was spot on as far as the phone screening interview went. I have been out of aviation full time for the last 7 years, flight instructing full time before that. I have been flying my Archer to regain currency and proficiency for the last six months since selling my company. I had the video chat screening call which lasted approximately 45 minutes, during which time every question I was asked was listed on this site....

    1 hour interview followed by a brief tour of the facility. Interview starts with basic questions, Have you ever had an emergency and if yes what'd you do? Have you failed a checkride and how'd you handle it? Then it moves into some more complicated IFR questions, multi engine theory, real world scenarios. If you have flown in a high altitude, IFR, real world environment it is very straight forward for the most part. Overall it was a great...

    It was a pretty straight forward interview and mostly scenario based;.TMAAT,  (view the study guide of this website).  Then they had me brief a SID, an Instrument Approach and had me read back a clearance from...

    First I have to say that the feedback from the previous interviewees was very helpful and spot on so my experience is not much different. As others stated, there are two interviews. The first one was a 20-30 minute virtual interview with Human Resources/Recruitment. It was a get-to-know-you kind of call with HR type questions, (Study the question guide). Then got invited to the second interview within a week or so. The second interview was in person at their HQ in Milwaukee. I sat down with...

    Ben, Tasha, and Tony were excellent, and all clearly enjoyed their work. A dog friendly environment with a great safety and maintenance program. A few general questions about my past flying and a few specifics about IFR. Relatively short as they had already covered much at the first interview. They focused the IFR on the plates around the Milwaukee area, so be familiar with those. They gave a full tour of the offices and afterwards a tour of the...

    I have applied a couple months back when I had less TT and about 5 months later I got an email from Tasha the recruiter lady. The first interview was HR questions with her assistant Ben through facetime. She then invited me over to the facility for the tour and the second interview that covered technical portions. I prepared for the worst case and re-studied from PPL stuff up to multi just to brush up my knowledge and especially the IFR portion. I was notified by other pilots who are...

    The first interview was via google meets. Getting to know you, tell me about yourself, HR questions, why FRE/ACE, weakness, strengths, etc. 30 min. The second interview will be in person, expect a couple weeks for them to get back to you after the first one. They will give you a tour of the facility and do the second interview which is a technical portion. Know the squawk codes, electrical system of the airplane you are flying (nothing too in depth), metal math for rules of thumbs when...

    Interview went well for the most part. The first interview was with Tasha and Ben who will ask you the HR questions. The second interview was at their corporate headquarters at Mitchell airport In Milwaukee. Sat down with Tasha Ben and the training manager who will ask you the technical questions. Some of the questions on here were exactly like it was in the study guide, (view the study guide of this website).  Good luck hope this...

    Two rounds of Interview. 1st round was phone screen with Tasha and another person. Tasha is very down to earth and made me feel comfortable in both Phone screen and the technical interview which is 2nd round. 2nd round Tech interview was schedules 5 days after my Phone screen. Tech interview was going well until the Training Manager asked me about my failures and kept going back and forth in it. I was never asked any Tech questions. But still I would say the Gouge is spot on as I had same...

    After round 1 of HR questions (utilize what's on the website) they asked a few personal questions as well relating to how I taught as a CFI and what a "day in the life" looked like for me as a CFI. After that, I received an email the next morning inviting me down for an in-person interview.  Then they had me open my own iPad with my FAA charts (they use Jepp) and go down to O'hare - pull up ILS/LOC 27C - pick out 7 items of interest on the approach and assume your glide slope...

  11. Amazing experience! Outstanding, accurate gouge.
