I prepared by having all my transcripts and driving records before I got the interview.
I followed their instructions as close to perfect as possible. I had two folders with all the packets they send you all paper clipped and filled out the way THEIR instructions say to fill them out. Some of the faa doc's have instructions too. Follow AE's instructions first then the FAA instructions!
When you are done, review them. then again. then have someone else review them (yes i did haha).
Make sure the fax numbers of previous employers are correct and working!
I had one previous employer I knew would be a pain. the second of got off the plane after the interview I went to their office and went to the fax machine pulled the documents and watched them fill them out and fax them back!
I called all the rest and asked them to check for and to send the faxes back asap.
I had one previous employer had his faxed back before I left AE HQ.
ALL of my required faxed doc's were back at AE by the next morning (8AM)
Just be prepared as much as possible before you go!
If you don't have a good gouge get one.
When you are at the interview, remember its more about YOU then anything else. Every single person you speak with except the hr guy is a Eagle captain.
I believe every one of them is looking at you thinking could I spend 5 days in a plane with that guy.
I interviewed 9 days ago!
I got the call at 1130 this morning. at 1330 i got the email for conditional offer. I faxed and emailed a copy of the conditional offer by1452 and while I was typing
this reply i recieved an email for a march 28 class date and a 3/16 medical date.
I have always treated every one there with the utmost respect and was not pushy about the emails or phone calls and always very appreciative.
Not saying it will work for everyone, but that is my story!
