Virgin Interview Gouge
 

Hi all, I have a friend who has a Virgin Interview next week. I've given what Alaska info I have to him but know nothing regarding the Virgin Interview. Has it changed recently to be more 'Alaskan?' Feel free to PM if you have large files and I'd be happy to provide an email....I'm also happy to trade for current Delta hiring info...HAHA.

Thanks all - Baja.

The interview process is all HR TMAAT question. Unfortunately, now you have to wear a tie. Straight forward, no surprises. Just be honest and be yourself.

You don't HAVE to wear a tie....

They don't HAVE to hire you.....

Come to think of it, check the door on the way in for exceptions but shoes and shirt may not even be required. Go in swim trunks and slippa's, and tell them it's your part Polynesian heritage that guides your attire.

Sorry, haven't interviewed in a while, what is TMAAT? Situational type stuff?

Thanks - Baja.

Yes, situation/scenario...

"Tell Me About A Time"

It's those ridiculous "tell me about a time when..." questions where you have to make up something on the spot because you've never actually had that happen to you, and "I've never had that happen" is not an acceptable answer.

Well, there was this one time in band camp... :p

Official notice from Virgin management today that a suit and tie are required for the interview now.

Agreed...My friend interviewed a few days ago and got the offer on the spot. Now has an Oct Class date as well.

Baja.

Can anyone point me to where I can find the latest gouge or PM if you think its easier.

I greatly appreciate it.

How difficult is it now to get an interview? I have an internal and I know now it's mandatory minimum of 3000 TT, which I should have by March.

TT seems a little low for competitive, there are thousands of regional FO's with more than that. They seem to prefer multiple type ratings, turbine PIC of some sort, and it seems common for new-hires to have both turborop and jet time. I assume they would prefer a fairly recent training event (probably not an issue for you).

Internal rec seems to help, but I know folks who didn't have an internal.

Caution, things are changing fast with AS integration so the older gouges from years ago are mostly not applicable. Also AS wants everyone to wear a suit and tie, older gouge said you would NOT be hired if you wore a tie but it's now quite the opposite.
