Default Best Gouge

So I have hit the 1500 mark and will start interviewing in a week or so. Got the first call today from CommutAir, and for a few reasons I am strongly considering going with them. So- where can I find the best gouge for this interview as well as all the other regionals? I will be taking a pre interview timed written late next week, so I will be buying some ATP written prep software like Sheppard or Dauntless it looks like as well....


Thanks all.

This is everything you need to know. Just be respectable and you will be fine.

Airline interview has a good gouge. The pretest is pretty close to spot on.

I interviewed late October. Interview was via Skype, which some people hate but I like simply because it is more respectful of my time. I did not want to waste a day traveling to HQ until I knew for sure I was in. Wish all airline interviews were like that.

As for a gouge, it's all basic stuff...

Why Commutair?
What is your best and worst attribute?
Tell me about a time when...
Brief this approach plate.
Brief this SID.
Copy and readback this clearance.

I also had a training issue in my past (see my post history for details) and they asked me to explain what happened and what I learned from it. I was as open and honest as possible. Got the CJO the next day.

Dress appropriately (from the waist up, anyway) and bring a personality. You'll do fine.

Waiting for the day when the final question of each Skype interview is, "would you please show us your pants?"

That has been asked in the past for some of our interviews.

This was spot on. Even in that order. Obviously I got an offer. I decided to take it.

So my class date is March 4th. Anyone have a list of pointers to be successful in class or make life better during the next few months? This will be my first 121 training event.
