The Interview reflected the preparatory material. I was asked to read a fairly lengthy METAR and brief up an approach to KHVN on a Jepp plate. Nothing too cosmic. They asked a couple clarifying questions about my career. I didn't get any a feedback as to why it was a no, however it was my understanding that they were looking for people to fill in on their east coast domiciles and I was looking for west coast bases which were their most senior. I'm guessing this was probably the sticking...

The interview process was just a conversation, why Avelo, prior training failures, what base you would want. They ultimately want someone who’s going to live and work in the base they get assigned as it’s mostly all turns the company does. They invited around 30 people to the interview and did not expect all to show up so it took about 8hrs to get my interview done and about half of the interviewers left by that time so my interview lasted 8mins. Majority of the debriefs as...

Interview was at HQ in Houston. We met at the lobby and a recruiter checked us in as you enter the room. After a short brief of who was in the room, they take all the group outside and starts calling randomly 4 people at the time. Question were TMAAT, (view the study guide of this website).   All short questions, no technical questions were...

Got there and watched a company presentation. After that we were called one by one and sat down to talk to four company representatives (HR, Chief Pilot, VP Operations). Pretty straight forward, no pitfalls they just want to know you, so be yourself! Be prepared to answer why do you want to work for Avelo, thats the biggest question of the whole process, they are expecting a big grow for next years (6 - 8 airplanes per...

It was pilot meet and greet at Houston HQ. They reached out individually to invite people online and about 40-45 pilots showed up. Started with quick intro about the company, where the company is going, future plans. They stressed out that if you are to be hired - you will get either HVN or ILG as a base. Most trips are day trips, so you are expected to live at base, or have place to stay during your rotation. Then everyone went back to lobby and were called 4 pilots a time to talk to HR,...

A group of about 30-40 pilots were invited down to Houston for a meet and greet with various important higher-ups in the company. They pulled us into the room a couple at a time to talk one on one. That was based on check-in time so definitely recommend getting there early or you might have to wait awhile. The questions asked were in line with all the other interviews on this site. Did not get any technical, just tmaat. Why Avelo is the important...

Invited to the Houston meet and greet which was really just a day of interviews. After a brief presentation they started calling us back to the conference room to interview with the Chief Pilot, Head of Operation, HR, and Head of Hiring. Everyone was very friendly and the interview was very conversational. It seems like if you made it this far they are interested in you but just making sure you are a good fit for the company and that you plan to be there for a while. Out and back style of...

Private hiring event, had 3 minutes to talk to 1 of 4 people each. Standard questions, no technical questions. They really want to see if they can enjoy sharing a cockpit with you for trips. Seemed to prefer letting your personality shine vs a rehearsed interview question. Have to make yourself stand out in this regard. Everyone asked why Avelo, tell me something that I can’t see on your resume, and then questions similar to that. They want to know if you’re corporate that...

Coming from a 121 background I had a HR/Bheavioural interview mostly, a Hiring Manager and a Captain interviewed me. The interview process was very friendly, mostly a discussion and understanding whether or not you'll fit with their culture and their service offering. Then Questions asked, (view the study guide of this website).  ...

Interviewed, it sounds like they had a couple spots open that they needed to fill on short notice. Very friendly and laid back. Coming from 121 I was asked to brief an approach into HVN but everything else was TMAAT questions. They are looking for first officers who are living in an Avelo base and close to their 1000 SIC hours. Avelo is going to be a destination for pilots and they are looking for those who will stay and...
