Likewise. And the rendezvous sounds good, Barrell Rider.
Interesting and varied group. Pilots ranged from an EMS chopper pilot (also lots of 727 time) a C5 pilot, a PC-12 pilot, commuter pilots, furloughed and active pilots, both genders, young, old. Pretty much all over the place.
Information here and elsewhere is all good. Nothing really new about the process or questions. It appears that they are looking for genuinely good, nice people who are solid pilots with relatively clean records who REALLY want to work there.
My best advice is to do your homework. Study up on the place if you really want to work there. If you don't REALLY REALLY want the job with them, they will find out and wash you out to avoid wasting their time (and money) and yours.
During the intro, they quoted to us that they had: "4000 resumes, 1500 reviewed, 275 interviewed, and 85 new hires" in the "past year"... That's something like 1 hired for every 3.2 interviewed. Sobering way to start an interview day.
