I think I did really good on the "test" and got the interview last year. It seems like the most important thing about the VX interview process is being yourself and being honest. The interview was really laid back and everyone there was extremely nice.

There really isn't a whole lot to study. The entire interview was HR based with a lot of TMAAT questions. Be yourself and don't try to flatter the interviewers with your vast knowledge...they'll see right through it. Everyone is extremely friendly and they want to see how you interact with others.

I'll bet VX guys have no problem finding crashpads in SFO.

Does anyone have an idea of what they think of applicants with a lot of single pilot turboprop time?

Not sure, but as long as you have the minimums, apply anyway and try and do as well as you can on the online test without any distractions.
