  • Applied after talking to PSA at a conference online. Within a few days got an email to schedule the HR portion of the interview, which was over the phone and just a logbook/hour review and got asked "Why PSA?", but no other HR questions. Scheduled the technical then and was sent a study guide that mainly had some tips/tricks and a few old Jepp plates, but nothing that was directly used on my interview. My interview was with a current PSA FO and started with a logbook review and just confirmed my hours followed by a few HR questions -- Why PSA (again) and what qualities I think about in a good leader and follower. Then started the technical portion. He shared his screen with me and began with me decoding a Metar (pretty tough one with some unusual and rarer things on it) and asked if I need a takeoff alternate, followed by showing me a TAF...

    The interview began with a review, (view the study guide of this website). The pilot interviewing me then explained the parts of the interview process and we moved to the technical questions section. I got a lot of the standard questions that you'll see on the study guide, so definitely study it. Three questions that stood out to me.  Overall, there was nothing during the interview that felt like a "gotcha" question and the process was pretty painless. My interviewer was friendly and...

    Was first contacted for an initial phone screening which appears to be the entire HR portion of the interview. She ran through and confirmed all my total times and my certs as well as my medical.  Then finished the interview and told me she would be in touch to schedule the technical portion of the interview. Maybe took 10 minutes total for the entire phone screening. The technical interview was only a week later and was just me and a PSA FO on MS Teams. She started by having me tell...

    Phone Screening was about 10 minutes and is the primary HR portion from my experience. Technical was almost all technical questions lots of CFII knowledge stuff as well as Jepp charts combined with a scenario. If you've been flying the line for a while and rusty on some old flight school questions definitely go back and look at that stuff. I was pretty rusty on a lot of old flight school knowledge but tight on the Jepp charts and scenario. If you don't know the answer take a second and think...

    Submitted App early May. Hadnâ??t heard anything. Was told be another PSA pilot, to send an email being pro-active. I sent one on Friday the 7th, and was contacted 20 min later from a recruiter asking to set up my screening interview in an hour. My technical interview was the scheduled the 12th. My interview was only 45 minutes. First 15 minutes were going over my docs, and telling her about myself. The rest of the time I was asked questions mostly pertaining to IFR flying. Some current...

    It was very straight forward. Phone screening is about flight time, checkride failures, accidents/incidents, why PSA. Technical is tell me about yourself then right into questions. Know some PPL questions Explain any engine you have flown. Then METAR and TAF, considerations associated with them. Finishing up with Jepp charts. Arrival, approach plate, airport diagram (view the study guide of this website).  Study up and you'll do...

    Everything happened fast I had my phone interview and then a week later had my technical interview. The interview was mostly private and instrument stuff. Know basic plane aerodynamics, CG, weather, airport lights, RVR conversions and jepps. The interviewer asked questions on SIDS, STARS, approach plates and taxi diagrams. Know your metar and taf codes as well as when you need an alternate. Itâ??s a very fair interview study this website and youâ??ll do great! I got an email the next day...

    Interview was around 40 minutes long. The interview started with brief introductions and then moved straight into technical questions. They first covered the required documents and required equipment for both VFR and IFR flight. Next, we discussed the systems on my current aircraft, primarily focusing on the engines. The interviewer then pulled up an approach plate. I was not asked to give a full approach briefing. Instead, he pointed to various items on the chart and asked me to identify...

    Incredible experience. HR phone call is 10 min. You run through documents and why PSA. ATP/CTP is now required since a week ago. Technical portion lasted 45 min. METAR (they showed me one, concerns from this metar?, read a TAF and questions, (view the study guide of this website).  They donâ??t have you brief charts just point to stuff and ask questions.   If you donâ??t know something own up to it. I got a couple wrong and no worries at all. I received a CJO 24 hours later. The...
