The Contour Airlines interviewing process consists of 2 interviews, initial is mostly an HR interview with a couple of technical questions at the end and then if you get selected for a second interview you will go on to a “technical interview” with the chief pilot. I only experienced round one of the interviewing process and was later told they were moving forward with more qualified applicants and was not selected for the next interview. The interview started with an explanation of Contour, what it is like, and what their operations consists of. Next he asked a couple of yes or no type questions regarding eligibility for the job.

The first interview was with one of Contour Airlines’ pilots. We reviewed my qualifications, and he informed me about the contract that SICs will sign upon hire. He also described the company’s benefits and typical duty days. There was also a short technical portion, which mainly involved reading charts. I described how I would fly a STAR with a specific transition, as well as how I would taxi to the runway after having been given a taxi clearance. The second interview was held... -

First interview is an HR interview. Aligns well with gouge. Follow that and you’ll do just fine! Second interview is a technical. Greg is friendly and asks great questions. The gouge is a good starting point but he will change it up on you. Be prepared. Overall it was a good experience but did not align with my long terms goals. A great experience for Part 135... -

Contour has two rounds of interviews. This information is for the first interview, with Brandon. I passed the interview and was told right away that I would be given a second interview. The first interview is mostly HR questions and the mandatory ones they have to ask (checkride failures, accidents/incidents, etc.) and 5-6 technical questions mixed in. After he went through the Skywest pipeline, pay and benefit information, Brandon asked me about my flying experience. Be prepared to discuss... -

With Greg I was asked about things concerning Class D airports. Icing questions. Was asked if we needed an alternate for a certain airport. He then moved onto a departure procedure and asked me what was specific to runway 15L concerning the feet per nm to feet per min so he asked me how I would convert that. He then asked me to... -
