I just interviewed a few weeks ago. Direct quote from Amy was to make sure your friends are updating every week or so(min every 30 days) and to make sure they have currency in flying (at least 100 hours in the last year). These two items help push your application through the computer algorithm to get to human eyes.

I didn't include professional development on my app- put some things I wanted to hi-light on my attached resume.

I typed up and submitted to the web site a separate addendum page to resume listing flight lead/instructor/eval quals, military/civil education and volunteer work. Have an interview 1 Aug. Good luck!

Any comment on what kind of flying the 100 hours in the last year needs to be?

She didn't differentiate and none of us thought to ask. She made a reference to passion about flying when she talked about the 100 hours.

She also talked about the computer algorithm spits out 300 application or so that meet whatever criteria she puts in. Then those 300 are looked at one by one by a review board to determine who they call in for an interview.

You take the tests on day one of the interview at Memphis. If you make it through the tests they invite you back for day two which is the 2 on 1 panel interview and scenario based interview.

Does anyone know what the Basic Gas Turbine block on the pilot credentials app means? Not sure if I should be checking that or not! Thanks.
