Define CRM as you understand it.

Are you willing to pay the 20k training bond?
When would you be available if offered the position ( did not frown upon a date that was three months away from the interview date)

This one was just insane
done on an IPAD)
example:
city x reduced their restrictions on oil import , as a result oil prices went down but unemployment in the field went up while the overall unemployment went down
a statement in this regard is made and you have to say if it is relevant or not
As far as the experience level of pilots being interviewed , all regional pilots and it appears that most new hire pilots are former regionals.
As far as hearing back from the company , in recent interviews some pilots got an the invitation on the same day .
Plan on spending approximately 4 hours ( plan your flight back home accordingly if you are not local)
Hope that helps.
Good luck.
