Default Any airlines doing phone interviews only?
Wondering if any outfits were doing phone/skype interviews instead of onsite ones?

Mesa was doing just phone, and I think PSA was for current CRJ pilots. Not sure if any still are though

Which airline/equipment/base? The phone interview would work better for me. With Mesa do you get to pick your aircraft/base?

Afraid you can't make it past a face to face or a sim eval?

In this market I would be too lazy to go to a face to face interview for anything less than a direct entry regional CA job..

Is TSA doing phone interviews for the CQFO position? I just read that 5 left so I'm assuming theres 5 more spots, seniority is everything is what all my friends say. Anyone have contact details?

I have to ask, why are you unwilling to go to an in person interview? Is it because you don't want to travel? If so, being an airline pilot probably isn't for you since it obviously involves constant traveling. Is it because you assume a phone interview will be easier than an in person interview? Even if the interview is easier, you still have to get through training.

Something to think about.

Actually not worried about either. I am overseas and logistically it's better suited for me. Thanks for your support though!

I never said I was unwilling to go to an interview in person. I simply said that a phone interview would be better suited for me. Why? Because I am on assignment overseas. Not new to the airline industry (22 years) and so travel and training has never been an issue.
