Hey Guys,

I've got a phone interview coming up and was wondering what to expect. Any technical questions or is it pretty much all HR stuff?

Also, which base would you recommend interviewing at...if it matters at all?

And, according to the email I just got, it says that the typical schedule is M-F, outstation for 6-7 hours and back in base every night in your own bed? I thought you guys spend the nights in the outstations and are back in base on the weekends only?

Thanks!

The phone interview is mainly HR stuff, nothing to be worried about just be yourself. You are scheduled home every night and you will be for the most part. You will fly first thing in the morning and then fly back in the evening for most runs.

Good luck to you!

Thanks for the response...

What do most guys do during the day at the outstation. Is there a company provided crew house, crew car, etc? Or are you chained to the FBO? Is it possible to be productive during the down time (go to a gym, run errands, etc?)

You can be productive, you will have some sort of transportation and a place to stay. They set you up pretty good, the time is yours, some guys golf, workout, or just sleep.

Depends. Sometimes, especially at the bottom of seniority, you won't have a regularly scheduled run. If your outstation based, then you are on the same run everyday. I was going to take some classes at a community college, but missed the sign up date.
