What did they do at their previous airline? If they've been at an airline previously, they should know the drill. If they haven't been at an airline before, they're either getting divorced because the SO can't hack this lifestyle or they're getting out of this career (at least the airline part of it. The local FBO might be hiring citation pilots for their 135).
Unless the company changed the interview in the last year, a decent part was asking how you would cope with not getting the base you wanted and getting exiled for a year to middle of nowhere base the company can't staff.
