How is Compass interview?
Reading some previous post and seems like compass interview is all about HR and getting to know you. No technical or written test. Are they really that desperate For right side bodies and let the training department weed out poor candidates. What is the pass ratio of new hires and how many sim do they give before the AQP check.

It’s mostyl HR, TMAAT, WWYD questions. Nothing technical. They just want to see your decision making. Still see about 1-2 people failing to pass the interview.
Not sure how many sims but the failure rate is higher due to the older individuals and rotor we are getting now. It is AQP. If you study hard, you won’t have a problem. |
Completed the interview in the last week. Was successful, all questions are as described. Looking for decision making, and understanding your role as an f/o. Focus on safety and understanding, while also making sure to exhibit qualities that would make you someone your crew would want on a trip outside of the aircraft.

Unfortunately no burrito questions which was very disappointing since that was what I focused a majority of my prep on.

Mine was a 45-minute HR-based interview back in March, administered by a Captain. Nothing super technical. Easy HR questions, such as...
"Your Captain says/does this during taxi, how would you react? Preflight turns up this squawk on a last leg of a four-day trip, WWYD? Ever have a checkride failure and how did you recover from this setback? Ever bust an FAR, and what did you learn from it?" Pretty obvious stuff, maybe one challenging question just to see how you react to the occasional 'unanswerable question'. Just sit up straight, be friendly, relax and you'll be fine. Wear a conservative suit and tie. Have your logbooks tabbed for quick reference. Be open and honest about any struggles you may have had in your past training, you're a human being after all. Got the conditional job offer on the spot. After much deliberation, I turned down a couple other regional offers and am joining the CPZ Team. I have researched this quite a bit, and although its not perfect, for pilots on the Left Coast CPZ looks like a great place to grow. See ya on the line! |
