    I had my United Airlines pilot interview today and it was a really positive experience overall. We were picked up from the hotel in the company van and brought to the training center. After checking in and dropping our bags, we waited in the cafeteria. A very friendly pilot gave the three of us a tour of the facility and the small museum, which helped calm the nerves. We were then taken to a waiting room and called in one by one. My interview panel consisted of Nixon (HR) and Aaron (Pilot)....

    Attended interview, showed up dropped off logbooks, stored bags/luggage in their baggage storage room and then was escorted to cafeteria. Once the pilot recruiter came to get the 4 of us, did the tour and went to wait in a classroom for the interviewers. Interview was 5 TMATs, supposedly based off your hogan results. They all seem to trend the same way, however. Questions were TMAT (view the study guide of this website, including the Sim/Scenario...

    Showed up an hour and 15 minutes prior to the interview. The front desk will bind your logbooks together. You then meet the rest of the interviewees in the cafeteria and hang out for about 30 minutes. A pilot in uniform will come get you. Youâ??ll drop off your logbooks then take a tour of their museum and be able to ask questions. Then you go to a classroom for another 15-20 minutes to ask more questions, use the restroom, and get some water. One by one other pilots will come grab people...

    Very chill environment, it started by collecting logbooks from all applicants for review. This was followed by a tour of the museum and the facility before being led to a waiting room. You were then pulled for your interview by a pilot. You introduced yourself and your background. Then were given 5 TMATTs followed by the technical scenario which was just like others have wrote where you are a captain of a Part 121 flight you have to chair...

    Overall it was a wonderful experience. There were 3 of us interviewing and we all met in the cafeteria at least an hour before the interview. Around 0915, someone in uniform came to grab us, take our logbooks, and show us around. He was extremely friendly and helped to calm the nerves. After, we went to a waiting room and got called one by one by our interviewers. Mine were Aaron(pilot) and Nixon(HR) 5 TMAAT TMAAT you made a quick decision without realizing the consequences it would present...

    The interview was quick. Once there walked us through a small history room with some models and old flight attendant uniforms. Two parts. First was personal and TMAAT (be careful and mention professional standards; they did not want simple post-flight cockpit debriefs, which is what I did every time), and second was a departure briefing. Lastly, they asked why United. I feel they wanted a heavy DEI statement on why United was the best. Logbooks were copied, but never opened or discussed. The...

    This was an interview for Aviate through one of the regionals. I donâ??t know whoâ??s getting real interviews with no TPIC time. Interview was exactly as described. TMAY then 5 TMATâ??s. My scenario flight was from LAX - SFO. 3 diversion options. Diverted to Sacramento. Furthest away but VFR. Ended with â??Why...

    My interview was exactly as others have posted. Group of 4. HR questions went as advertised previously TMAAT you had to do a lengthy procedure, Disagreement with a captain in the flight deck, you had someone question your judgement. Technical was a flight from Denver to Des Moines. No tricks or gotchas, 13 point briefing, reject criteria, v1 profile, stable criteria, go-around profile, 3-1 calculations, procedure turn outbound on a ILS max speed?, honestly in and out 60 minutes. It was a...

    They ask you to be checked in 1 hour prior, I was there at 8:30 and checked in. They will direct you to the cafeteria where you will meet with the other people interviewing. Use this time to chat and get to know each other, this helps calm the nerves and it looks good to be social. Lots of pilots came up to us to say congratulations, welcome us and wish us luck. At around 9:15 2 United pilots on the hiring team came to greet us get our logbooks and take us on a tour of the Museum. Again use...

    There were only 3 of us that morning. We waited in the cafeteria until they came to get us for the tour and brief of what would happen. Then they came to get us one by one. I had a pilot, an HR rep, and another pilot observing. I was asked to tell them about myself, then 5 TMAAT questions. You had to work with a team, changed your communication style, justify a decision with a passenger or crewmember, a change you implemented, and emotional outburst at work. Then a brief break, before the...

  11. Lots of great gouges to help keep prepare best for my interview. It’s worth hearing other peoples experiences and brings ease to the nerves.
