I just got the call for the interview today. Can anybody point me in the direction of what to study for the interview? Sorry if this has been discussed to death, but I only just registered here and though I did a search, I didn't turn anything up.

Thanks

interview

Good luck.
Did one last week. There is really nothing you can study for. Just have a story ready for them, and be yourself. I was asked nothing technical at all. Interview lasted about an hour. As far as the cog and psych tests, you cant' study for them, so just relax, and do the best you can.

Thanks Bart,
Was there any arithmetic on the tests. I did some tests for a European carrier a few years back and was surprised to see how rusty my math was. Also, does anybody know if there is a sim detail involved? If so, does anyone know what kind of simulator they are using?
Tush, I am left seat on a regional jet here in Europe. I started out in Canada and did some instructing and a bit of corporate. I have three years post secondary and a good working knowledge of French. 4500TT 2500 jet and 1000 PIC jet.

Best of luck to all,

CML

nope, no math at all. the closest you would get to that is on the cog screen, and that is mostly memory and multi task stuff.
Oh, and no sim either.

Can any of the current AC folks out there tell me how the "experience" of the new hires is looking these days?

From the above posts it seems they are still finding lots of people with plenty of jet experience. Are they many candidates getting on with the same types of time, but turboprop???

Thanks,

neo
