Default Anyone Interview at PDT lately?

Hey guys,

I have been unsuccessful at tracking down current interview info for PDT. I am interviewing on the 1st and am studying the standard regional gouges (same stuff I studied for my interview at AWAC). Has anyone here interviewed with PDT recently? Anything in particular I should pay attention to?

Also, any word on the hub bases? I know they were supposed to announce last Friday and have not yet. Hoping for DCA. If not, PDT may not be viable for me. Thanks guys!

There will be a hub base don't worry. However the rumors are PHL or DCA. I think as more RJ's get on line it will probably be both and a rumor of PIT as a mx base. Don't forget we also have a commuter policy where the company will buy you 4 hotels a month and a retention bonus is in the works.

Good Luck! I'll be flowing by the end of the year and have loved my stay and Piedmont. Great Plane and great people to fly with.

Don't forget AWAC has bases in PHL and DCA. They also have a great working contract and good benefit package. So if you need a hub base now they are another good option.

Expect a 50 question ATP style test. Aviationinterviews.com had good info of the style of questions. The rest is a get to know you style interview with some Jepp and maybe low reroute questions. Very laid back and informative. They want to hire you, so just go in there and seal the deal. Your interview at Air Woosterheden will have prepared you well.

Thanks... I studied hard for that interview and was well prepared. I was offered the position with AWAC but don't think its the best fit for my family and I right now. Looking forward to seeing what PDT is all about!

Retention bonus in the works? Could you expand on this?
