Hey guys. I interviews at PSA today, was wondering how long it takes them to call you if you get the job?
Thanks
Brad

 

interviewed yesterday. hope to hear from them tomorrow after they get back to DAY..
good luck

 

How in depth is the interview? Was the gouge info on aviation interviews right on?

 

They called me the next day, but it was at a little past five their time on a friday so I really wasn't expecting a call till the next monday. From what I've heard it's pretty common for a next day call there.

 

I sent them a resume a week ago. How long does it take for them to call you for an interview after you send them the resume? What was the application process like? And, if you don't mind my asking, what are your times?

 

I thought this thread was going to be in reference to the "phantom pooper" incident.

 

Im currently doin sim in montreal for PSA, checkride this weekend, as for me, they e-mailed me and everyone else that interviewed with me 8 days after our interview. I remember the email saying though that usually they call but Rachel was busy or something and just sent out an email. Hahah, that was a really long week. Good luck, also remember to always lock your flight case.

 

I recieved a call late in the afternoon on the next day.

 

It took me about a week and a half to get an e-mail back from them. The gouge on mypilotcareer.com is right on and they have all the questions that they are going to ask you on the written and in the HR/Technical portion. If you have taken a CRJ Transition Course then expect to be asked questions about the CRJ. We had a guy not make it through the HR/Technical portion that did do the CRJ Course. I felt bad for him because he was a pretty good guy and would have been easy to share a cockpit with. As for me I only have 650TT and 38 ME with a CFI. So they asked me mental math questions about crossing fixes and certain altitudes. I’m in and out of Lexington a lot so they asked me about the Comair crash and what I have done with my students to ensure that they practice safety while taxing. Why PSA? Have I ever broken an FAR? What was the biggest struggle in my last certification? Tell me about a manager that I worked well with and why? Do I learn better with a lot of direction or little direction? They looked at my log books. Mrs. Brame the lady who sends the e-mails actually does your interview along with a check airman, a chief pilot and Mr. Fusi the manager of flight standards. They are laid back, funny and the nicest people. So go in there and have a good time. If you go in there and never crack a smile or laugh then they probably won’t want to share a cockpit with you, so keep that in mind. The sim is an MD-80 PCATD and it’s not that bad. You will get a sim profile that explains the entire ride and it said to use 1.3 EPR’s for 250 knots but it’s easier to use 1.2 EPR’s for the 250 knots that you will have to maintain. When you do your descents pull the power back and just pitch for 250 in the decent. The ILS is easy and just like every other ILS pitch for glide slope and power for the 140kts approach speed. Hope to get a call back today or tomorrow. Good luck guys.

 

hey ksatflyer, are they giving 2 weeks off between ground and sim?
