Depends on how much you study. Honestly, I felt I was prepared for the sim because you do the same thing over and over again. It's a big boy program so just study with your SIM partner and you will be fine. They aren't trying to trick you. It's all laid out in the packet they give you with the profiles. PM me if you have any other questions.

They did this 2 years ago at one of the job fairs. The common trait of those getting the onsite interview was Training Department experience. They had guys taking the Cognitive Test there and staying an extra day for the panel interview.

Especially when one of the volunteers is a current ALPA MEC committee chair member for us.

Only management and HR will be attending the Dallas event. My assumption is certain pilots will be asked to stay later in the day for a full interview. They will not be looking for certain types of pilots (LCA, Captains, etc), just pilots who really want to work for Spirit.

The only thing the sims add are engine failures. You do everything else in a FTD because it's cheaper. And because the FAA only allows type rides in a simulator. If spirit could give type rides in an FTD to save money they would.

Yes it is only 4 simulator sessions, but leading up to the simulators you have done 13 sessions in a flight training device doing normal flights, two engine instrument approaches. So by the time you get to the sims you should be relatively proficient at doing normal procedures and pushing off the gate within 15minutes.
