Sure thing, it seems to be a great place to be employed here at the moment. So, lets see.......the interview:

There were 3 of us there and I think 5 were supposed to show up. One thing that they found that we all had an issue with was our 121 knowledge. This is something they would like you to have a good foundation of before you got to training since the training isn't really designed to teach you regs and 121 instrument procedures and things of that nature.

So first off you go through a quick seminar on the company and it's present position in the industry. Next is a one on one interview with one of the recruiters which are retired pilots so the bull won't work there. Just be yourself. They go through your application and make sure that your background history is legit and specific enough for them to do a required check on you. Then you do a written test which is 30 questions. The questions were pretty easy. Nothing I hadn't seen before. It consisted of instrument questions and a few straight forward 121 questions ranging from performance to approach questions. Also know your approach plates (jeppesen) and low alt enroute charts. We spent a bunch of time on that. He asked a bunch of questions there were pretty open ended. Questions such as "why ASA?" "What is your worst quality?" "What are your intentions at ASA?" and things like that. Then they have you call a number when you go home to see if you were selected for phase II which is a Sim session. That was really fun. There really isn't anything to be prepared for accept to know your regs. Know your holding speeds and have a good scan with glass. Be gentle with the power and the controls. The flight consisted of a take off, climb, 180 degree turns, direct to VOR and hold entry to an ILS and full Stop. Any other questions feel free to ask.
