Latest and greatest: American Eagle Pilot Interview Profiles

Had the Interview...
 

I had my Endeavor interview on 3/17, I guess the "luck 'o the Irish" was with me... I got an offer for a class date of April 13th.

The interview was very strait up, no surprises or tricks. IMO.

As stated in other posts you watch a power point presentation for about an hour led by an Assistant CP, who was very nice, warm and happy to answer any and all questions. He also was very open about upgrade, attrition, flow through, fleet make up, base seniority, bidding, benefits, lodging during training and the Delta tie in, with Endeavor being a wholly owned regional of Delta.

He also told us what to expect in the interview and that it's the Delta interview adapted for regional airline use. He assured us there would be NO computer testing, or Luminosity type questions. There wasn't.....

We then were called into panel interviews, mine had 2 human resources people, a line first officer and a base chief pilot.

The CP explained that once they start they had to stick to the script and that the questions are "canned".
My questions were....

Tell us about yourself in 3 min or less...
What is CRM and tell us about a time you had to use it... how did the captain react?...
What is "P" factor...
Why do you think pilots shouldn't be reading non-company material or using electronic devises at FL350 in cruise...
You're flying in the Rocky mountains and you see the airport as you go over, you fly the approach and at minimums a thin layer of fog obscures the airport, what do you do...
Brief this approach plate....
Read this Metar and TAF... do we need a take off alt? Do we need a landing alt?
Tell us about a time you provided exceptional customer service...
Explain the engine from a jet you know...

They handed me the book to look up the Metar and I noticed there are 24 different interview profiles for them to choose from, I don't see how they can be much different from this one.

Good luck, I'm excited, I think it's a good fit for me.

Thanks for the interview update. Congrats. You mentioned that you "looked up the METAR in the 'book." Is this just their book that has the 24 different interview plans or are all the METARs/TAFs located in a section and you just have to find the one that links to the particular airport they are asking about? Thanks.

Their book...good luck!

Please share your gouge! I'm up next week.

Endeavor Interview (late March 2015)
 

Interviewed with Endeavor Air in late March 2015.
Prior experience: 3800 hours military, multiple platforms, evaluator and instructor.

Offered Job? Yes

Entire experience was very good. As mentioned previously, no tricks or surprises and entire team is genuinely interested in you and your success.

Travel, hotel and cab rides were covered by Endeavor. No issues.

The interview was professional and entire team was pleasant.

You will start the day with a power point presentation for about an hour led by an Endeavor pilot, who was very nice, warm and happy to answer any and all questions. He also was very open about upgrade, attrition, flow through, fleet make up, base seniority, bidding, benefits, lodging during training and the Delta tie in, with Endeavor being a wholly owned regional of Delta. Very positive start to the day.

He also told us what to expect in the interview and offered a few vectors about potential questions. Keep in mind that he (or she) is also an "interviewer" although he made it clear to us that he was NOT doing any/our interviews on the day we were there.

Once initial intro briefing etc is done, you are seated in the holding area and it's time to wait. The interview teams will call you back when it's your turn. The panel for my interview had 2 human resources pros (one was observing), and two Captains.
The HR pro kinda runs the process and starts out by driving through your application. There were some questions along the way too.

My questions were:
1. Tell us about yourself in 3 min or less. They followed up with some specific questions about my resume...acknowledging that 3 minutes is a bit tough to cover one's entire career, etc., especially if you have been at it for a while. Asked me to tell them about my training and how it went during each aircraft transition.

2. Tell us about your history in aviation and what brings you here to Endeavor today? Why do you want to work here?

3. Tell us about CRM and describe a situation when you had to "use it."

4. They provide a notebook with METAR/TAF and approach plates (both Jepp and NOS)... First question is to Interpret a RAW METAR, then the RAW TAF. What's the weather? Scenario is that you are taking off from XYZ and going to Destination 1. Do you need a takeoff alt from initial departure location? Do you need an alternate at destination? If so, let's assume that we choose destination 2 as our alternate...is the weather good enough for us to use Dest 2 as our legal alternate? Basically, you need to be about to APPLY the METAR/TAF info as if you were actually going to fly the plan, etc.

5. They pick an approach from their "book" and ask you to brief it just as you would in the airplane. You can use either the Jepp plate OR the NOS plate (BOTH are provided). And, let's say you fly the approach and have to go missed approach and go hold...how would you enter holding?

6. Airspace: know A, B, C, D airspace. Where does A begin. What are speed limits in B, C, D?

7. What is RVR? Only wanted what RVR stands for...no more.

8. Tell us about a system (s) on your airplane?

9. How does Density altitude impact lift?

10. How does icing impact a wing (aerodynamically)?

11. What do you expect from the company?

12. How did you prepare for this interview?

13. What would your supervisor say about your attendance record?

14. Any questions for us or anything you want to add?

Once interview is complete you are escorted back to holding area while team compares notes and debriefs. After a short wait the HR pro will come get you and bring you back to the same interview room and discuss the interview, etc.
Result: I was offered a position with Endeavor.
If you are offered the job they take you to another room and you get to fill out some paperwork (and you will need a 10 year 'where you lived' history with dates, addresses, etc). Once done, it's time for fingerprints, mugshot, and then they call you a cab to get you to the golden-flow test just down the road. You will have a voucher for both cab rides (includes the ride from golden-flow to terminal).

A special shout-out and THANKS to Jackie A (HR coordinator)...she takes care of you before, during, and after your interview. Very pleasant and helpful.

That's it. Study, prepare, and be genuine. Good luck!

Does anybody have a current interview gouge?
I have an interview on Tuesday the 10th.
Thanks

Anything posted from January 2015 to now will be accurate.
