Default Net Jets Technical Written

Can anyone with recent experience with the technical written shed some light on the questions asked and possible study resources. My understanding is that when the applicant is offered the interview at NJ HQ that the the written exam is one of the steps in the process?

Thanks for any help.

Back in May it was a multiple choice written test.
Aviationinterviews.com is a good place to get more information

Triumph -

I've seen that aviationinterviews.com is a good place for the HR interview, but you are saying that they have good information on the written tests too then? Is this the site that costs $10? I take it that you consider it a worthy cost if so.

USMCFLYR and others

I used the following "free" website for Technical interview prep: Netjets interview gouge

I also did the the aviationinterviews.com site and only paid 6.95 for 1 month and then cancelled my subscription. I'd print out only the last month or two of interview gouge to read as they get redundant in a hurry. Lastly, if you don't have Richie Lengel's book "Everything Explained for the Professional Pilot" spend the 50 bones and get it ASAP. It is all Part 91, 91K, 121 and 135 explained very well even a Marine could understand (they use pictures as well mostly for us AF types) HA!

Just be careful with what gouge you read, the sim profile has changed and they've retooled their hiring department.

Good Luck

Can anyone give me a straight answer on whether NJ International (gulfstreams) hires off the street anymore, or is it only fed from NJ now??? Thanks.

Unless you know someone very high up at NJI, they are more or less done hiring off the street. The official cut-off date is November I believe, but they already have all the applicants lined up for the few open slots between now and then. But hey, it's worth a shot, so give it a go!

As for the written exam, I remember being told in recurrent that they would be using a revolving question bank (a very large bank apparently), so no one will be getting the same test twice, at least not anytime soon. Good luck to all.

Thanks for the scoop. I sent in apps to NJI and NJ just in case CAL requests my departure come fall. I did have some Gulfstream time so I figured I'd give it a shot. Blueridger, eh? Do I know you? #16740 back in the day at ACA...

Well DD -

Let me tell you that I did read some of that book on the way to me getting my newly minted ATP and you're right! I probably looked more at the pictures than read the words
Nah...seriously - thanks for the gouge website. The sim is not too much of a concern - doesn't matter what it is I'm know I'm gonna have to learn the civvie way of flying. If they really wanted to know how I could fly right now I'd gladly bring them to my sim I can only hope a pray for a civvie sim partner who wouldn't mind helping an old dog along.

Aviationinterviews.com is well worth it, from several friends who have interviewed recently.
