The interview is pretty standard to what you see on here. I found the in person much more advantageous than the online option. You arrive, hand off your documents and are provided with a presentation and Q&A. You do not get this during the online version. The online version is brief and I feel didn’t provide an opportunity to get to know the company or people. They call you into a separate room where multiple interviews are being conducted. It starts with a release sheet and given a dep/ arrival time. Can you take...

I was interviewed by a FO and a CAPT who were both very friendly. My technical interview began with the scenario of flying from KDTW to KCLT. I was given a METAR and TAF and asked questions, (view the study guide of this website). I was given the KDTW airport diagram, SID (BAR11 3 DEP), and STAR (PARQR 4 ARR) into KCLT.

I did the online Microsoft Teams interview, it was about 40 minutes total. We started with an introduction and then onto the HR questions which was super quick. They asked me what organizations I'm passionate about, what fictional character represents me, explaining checkride failures, how many hours do I have, if I could solve one worldwide problem what would it be. I got a scenario of what to do if the aircraft is overfueled. For technical questions it was VERY straight forward, I didn't... -
