Just completed my first in person airline interview with Horizon Air. I didn’t get the job. Interview seemed to go fine, but clearly I need to adjust my interview prep/style. 1. Submitted my application early this year. About a week later, received an email, to set up a phone screening (no webcam). During the phone call I was asked “why Horizon” and then questions about my hours. At the time I only have about 350 PIC hours in MEL aircraft and they wanted me to have 500, they said call us back when you hit 500 PIC MEL. 2. Hit my 500 hours a few months later, I emailed the HR rep and didn’t hear anything for a month. Finally got a response to reapply. 3. I resubmitted and got another phone screening email a few days later, said they would like to conduct the interview this week. They setup the flight and hotel and provided instructions of how to get picked up by the shuttle. 4. AviationInterviews had the most accurate gouge that reflected the interview, so I recommend that. There was zero technical questions asked, which is what the airline interview gouge suggested as well. 5. Very little documents requested from them. Just your logbooks with tabs for your check-rides, pilots license, fcc radio permit, passport, and any LORs. 6. I arrived at 840 am for a 0900 showtime. Three...

I had an amazing experience; very squared away and friendly company. I interviewed as Experienced FO; no technical questions and this guide was excellent prep. Diversity question was definetly asked. Also, they looooove if you bring in core values and volunteerisms into your answers. I was flown in the night prior, took a shuttle the hotel, had a restaurant/bar and a decent snack store. Breakfast is available if you pay and coffee bar was available as well. I just walked to the... -

Awesome experience. Phone screening with one HR Rep, took about 30 mins. Why Horizon and normal back ground questions. Was offered an in-person interview. The weeks leading up they send you all the hotel and flight information. I was flown out the day before the interview, took the shuttle to the hotel. HQ is right up the hill from the hotel. I walked to HQ the morning of the interview and got checked in. While waiting I met the other interviewees, both really awesome folks. Everyone in the... -

There was a Phone interview with an HR person initially. HR questions mostly, tell me about your flying history, why Horizon, where do you see yourself in 5/10 years, they also tell you exactly how the interview will go which was 100 percent acurate. Day of intervew was very relaxed, everyone in the Alaska "Hub" was extremely courteous and professional. Went exactly as described. There were two of us. We were taken upstairs into a conference room and turned in our Logbooks and... -

Overall a good experience. Interview went like most others on here have said. There were 4 of us for the interview that day. We checked in and waited in lobby for a bit. Talked with each other until around 9am. At 9am, we met with our interviewers and went in for a presentation about the company. We learned about the history of Horizon, company values, benefits as an employee, and what to expect if hired. We then went to wait in the common area and were pulled one by one for an interview... -

Horizon Air is an extremely professional regional under the Alaska Airline Group. I applied for the experienced first officer position in the middle of the Summer and after 2 months of silence was told to resubmit under a new posting that opened in the Fall. I met the experienced FO recruiter and a Captain at a hiring event in the next month and giving both of them my resume while discussing my experience and why I wanted to work for Horizon. I received a call 2 weeks later to schedule a... -

I was selected for the Experienced first officer position. I met with the base chief pilot and HR rep. They were very welcoming from the start and they provided lunch as well. Started off with a presentation and then they call you one by one for an interview. After the interview, if you get the CJO, you do your fingerprinting and drug test there. There were a total of 4 of us and 3 of us got the CJOs. I was asked TMAAT questions, (view the study guide of this...
