Psych Test for Pilot Candidates
I'm trying to get prepared for that psych test UA gives you before they call you in for an interview. It's the Hogan, right? Is it the Hogan Personality Index or another one of their tests? I'm trying to get any prep materials on it that I can, so I want to know the exact one I need to prep for. Any other advice would be appreciated!

This is more aimed at a crowd than at you so do 't take it wrong. The whole idea is to see (albeit through a BS test) what you are made of and see if you fit their "type". So practicing the test, well, pointless and kind of fake. I can't help but think of the guys I interviewed when I was on the CA board who put on a good front and then after being hired did everything from ***** about wearing a hat to refuse to follow SOP. Just take the test and let your true colors show up. If you need to fake it to get hired, maybe you wouldn't be happy there anyway.

I sometimes, almost never, always, occasionally, often say what I think they expect that I might have once thought about, but never really that often meant to say--but I could be wrong.
I think I could pass it---

I know this is anecdotal, but I fly with a lot of new hire f/o's and I'm pretty sure the interviewers give extra points for not having a full head of hair -- you know, that UFC cage match look.

There is a United thread a ways down called "United Hogan Assessment"
See my posts towards the end
Its a very straightforward test, all true/false and your first thought after reading the questions is probably correct... as long as you answer truthfully, don't worry about what you think United wants to hear...
