AviationInterviews.com usually has some good information based on recent interviews.
The interview was very relaxed and friendly. We were picked up by Erin, Sean and Joe. They also performed the interviews and answered all of our questions. What a great group and a great mission. I accepted another job offer with another company before hearing back from Erin but I was very impressed with Omni and their facility in Dallas. Interview started with a brief introduction of the company, their goals, history and how you could play a role in it. We all asked questions about schedules, reserve, benefits, upgrades, etc. The interview panel was Erin and Sean with no gotchas no difficult technical questions. Asked about your resume and previous jobs. Next came the SIM eval. (view the sim/scenario section of this website). I can say they were all great folks and I've heard nothing but great things about working at Omni. I think as usual if you are invited to interview its your job to loose. Be yourself, remember they want to hire you but only if they feel like they can get along with you in a cockpit for hours upon hours and 16 to 18 days out on the road.
Simulator check in company B767 full motion device. Entire profile hand flown; you choose your seat. Company LCA seat filler loads the FMC and assists with speeds, gear, flaps, etc. VFR takeoff and climb out of KLAX using raw data and autothrottle off. Basic flying evaluation including level-offs, turns, and track to VOR using RMI. Several basic aviation “math problems” asked throughout, including about planned holding pattern entry at the VOR. WX reduced for vectors to ILS using flight director in IMC. Break out of WX above mins for normal landing. Repo to departure runway for VFR V1 cut. Very straight forward; no curveballs.

All the gouge here is spot on. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a more relaxing and enjoyable interview experience anywhere.
Joe, the 767 fleet manager, talked for about an hour describing the operation and the pay. Then Erin and Joe did the one-on-one interviews. Those were a piece of cake. Short and enjoyable. Why Omni. 30 second CEO elevator spiel. Nothing technical.
They fed us lunch. The 777 sim was down so we went to another facility and used their 787 sim. They set everything up. Take off, level off at 5000, then vectors to the localizer in LAX to a full stop. Then a V1 cut to 500 feet. That was it.
