Any good interview books/guides?

[Coventrian]

Hi there,

I hold a Frozen ATPL and am currently searching and applying for any possible flying job. I was wondering if there are any books regarding modern airline interviews that people would recommend?

Regards,

Ben

Amazon.com: Airline Pilot Interviews: How You Can Succeed in Getting Hired /921T (9780942195019): Irv Jasinski: Books (http://www.amazon.com/Airline-Pilot-Interviews-Succeed-Getting/dp/0942195019)

However it's a little out of date. Some good stuff in there though.

Cue someone saying "you'll be lucky to even get to interview stage in this current climate".

Good luck, S88

Thanks for the replies,

I have been checking out that Amazon.com: Airline Pilot Interviews: How You Can Succeed in Getting Hired /921T (9780942195019): Irv Jasinski: Books (http://www.amazon.com/Airline-Pilot-Interviews-Succeed-Getting/dp/0942195019) and seems it's sold out everywhere.

I have been looking at the ASA interview book: Checklist for Success: A Pilot's Guide to the Successful Airline Interview (Professional Aviation Series) (Paperback).

Has anyone read this? Will it help much or should I wait until the other book is in stock? I get the idea ASA is more focused on the US side of things and this book may be based around US airline interviews?

Cheers

Regarding 'Ace the tech...etc", I refer you to the following thread.

http://www.pprune.org/interviews-jobs-sponsorship/391896-ace-tech-pilot-interview.html

If you're in the market for a good doorstop or have a wonky table leg that needs adjusting I'll happily sell you my copy.

Hehe,

I've read many a bad review on that 'ace' book. Incorrect formulae, diagrams etc. I was pretty good with my theory stuff so could probably clock the mistakes, is it any good for pointing you in the right direction to what technical information to focus on for the interviews?
