Compass Gouge??
I have an interview with them in a week or so just wanted to see if anyone had any updated interview information. Thanks could use all the help I can get. Any heads up possible would be appreciated.

Just study and be honest. The interviewers at Compass are great people, you wont have a problem.

The computer exam is tricky - not because of the information - but because you cannot change your answers and go back. It was kind of disorganized. Show up, do the test and then a lot of waiting. To be fingerprinted, to do the sim (it was still a part of the process 4 months ago), to interview. Also if you are flying in the same day plan on at least $60 for cabs. It was about $15 from MSP to the clinic which is right next to the NWA training HQ - about 5 min ride. The cab from the clinic to the PanAm facility runs a bit more and takes about 10-15 min. But you also need to factor in the dispatch time for the cab to arrive. I almost missed my interview because it took them 90 mins to get one to the clinic. When done they will call and give you a voucher to get back to MSP.

If you are under age 40, the first class is now valid for one year, not six months. Previously, after six months it would revert to second class, that is gone unless you are over age 40 in which case it is still six months.

I assume that eventhough the back of my medical says 6 months it is referencing a FAR so a medical would still be good for 12 months!

Crap I need to study I guess I never heard about that either. The company is still sending out the notices to get a medical every 6 months so I guess that will be changing soon to then 
It makes me wonder what other things have changed lately.
