If you don't get prep you won't get hired. Start tonight. Hire a pro.

Also, Aviationinterviews is probably the worst idea for prepping.

If you don’t do the prep you’ll prob never get passed the HR portion, that’s the way it is. They have a certain flow they use and if you don’t know how to answer the questions you’ll more than likely fail.
It’s $300 for 3-5 million in retirement, easy decision!

No offense to the guys that have been on property for a long time, but it seems fair to say HR rules this new era of interviewing at United. An outfit like Cage with very connected consultants to the interview team at UAL know this and don’t just over train you. The consulting is not about being fake or pretending to be someone you are not. It’s to highlight your personality and experience all while preparing you for the format of the interview questions. If you have some quirks or mannerisms that are less than desiresble for a preofssional airline interview, they’ll find them and work to improve those issues/weaknesses. By no means are these consultants training you in anyways to misrepresent yourself.

But it’s your career... if you think you’ll be able to go in and ace it with only having your significant other critiquing your interview skills then good on ya!

So then how did I get hired? That website is a great resource to gain insight into the general interview process and adds information to your study material on possible situations during the interview. What it should not be is your only resource when you prep. The process is so competitive now that one should also get professional prep.

The flow is not some mystery. It’s called situational based interview. Google it.

Just because you got away with a bad idea doesn't mean it's good advice. John Daly smokes and drinks to excess but is a professional athlete, just because he can doesn't mean I'm going to recommend his training schedule to youngsters! :)

Anyway, it's FINE to read that website but just take it with a grain of salt and focus on the professional help!

A month is enough time. Not advisable to schedule an interview much farther out than that anyway. He’s probably been going over tmaat questions in the STAR format in his head for years. I did Cage and Emerald coast. Both were great but Cage was a bit better. Maybe CV is still on here and gives his own interview prep?

Good luck. I’d have to recommend some ‘prep’ service too.

Don’t be talking about any ‘scud running’ either. They don’t want to hear that version of ‘hero piloting’.

Congrats on the interview . I interviewed in DEC of last year . I took about a month personally . However people are dif . I did interview prep for my last gig and eventually did interviews at that airline , then when my United chance came I still did prep. I agree some will go in and breeze right threw it . But most won't without help from outside perspective from people who do this for a living . The business really has changed from when guys interviewed back in the 90's . Prob for the worse in my opinion.

Few free to PM me to get my contact info would be glad to help any way I can .

Best of luck.
