Missing info you base a claim on elsewhere anywhere in your app/resume is certainly not going to help. But yeah, it ought to be readable and internally consistent and something a reviewer isn't going to have to take time to puzzle over far less catch you in some glaring error.
But what I thought was key is that they give you interview directions and they expect you to have put in the work to be able to follow them. I wouldn't bet a career on 'close enough for government work. When they give you the questions and answers ahead of time they expect you to have them. That being said, they all invested quite a bit of time into preparation. They used interview prep services, had their apps and logbook reviewed, made sure their logbook was professional and well-organized and consistent, and they spent a lot of time studying the packet that UA sends prior to the interview. They also all went to hiring fairs like NGPA / RTAG, etc. If you spend a couple hundred hours in doing all the necessary work to be fully prepared, you should have no problem. This isn't something to roll into after spending a Friday afternoon on preparation. |

This is the way. This advice is right on.
My UAL interview experience was just as I expected: friendly, welcoming, and professional, with the emphasis on professional. I felt at ease, but only because I put a ton of effort into preparing for it. I had the interview study packet memorized, my logbook all printed and tabbed and organized, a new suit, I did interview prep, read every single question on aviationinterviews.com, and so on and so forth. I'm extremely glad I did. In talking to a few FOs (and even CAs) at my current shop though, I've been a bit surprised at how common it is to hear them say something like "X airline is hiring anybody if you can fog a mirror.' On the shuttle to the hotel for my AA interview, I ran into a guy who boasted he hadn't prepped or rehearsed at all. I wasn't surprised the next day when he didn't join us in the "Congratulations!" area of the lobby next to that 777 model... |

what sort of logbook issues are we talking about? Messy handwriting? Missing info?
Didn't have the tail numbers for one company but did for others. |
