  • Applied end of last year after reaching my hours and heard from a recruiter approximately 2 weeks ago to schedule a phone call. Phone call about 3 days later to answer some brief qualifying questions and schedule an interview for this week. They flew me in the day before and put me up in a hotel near the airport and the interview was the next morning at a conference room at the hotel, so super low stress logistically. There were three of us interviewing and the interview was hosted by two HR/recruiting team members that were very friendly and awesome at their jobs. Started with an overview PPT...

    Overall, it was a very pleasant experience. The information session lasted about 30-40 minutes. Once I was called back for my interview, it lasted around 40 minutes. The interview began with TMAAT/STAR-type questions, followed by a technical portion. My experience was similar to many others shared here. Study the question guide, and you’ll have no problems. For the technical portion, be prepared to decode long and/or corrected METARs. They showed a microburst, and I had to explain the...

    All the things on the gouge was asked. The interviewers were very friendly. We started with a 20 minute company presentation and we were called two at a time for our interviews. Pretty lengthy METAR / TAF, and a heavy emphasis on microbursts and...

    Interview was a great experience. Everyone there made you feel welcome and like they wanted to be there and wanted you there. They tried to calm us all down and keep the envirnment laidback and fun. Interview itself were all questions I saw here: wx, taatw, jepp, windshear. All questions were straightforward and not trying to be tricky or anything. They called be back 2 days later with a CJO and 2 days after that with a class...

    Look at the interview questions and word for word study it. He asked about Weather and the thunderstorm questions.  A very complicated metar with LGTICCCCG and also they were big on briefing the jepp charts. Study those. They asked me on the airport diagram how much landing distance you had if you were tracking the glideslope and I didn't realise it said it at the very bottom. Also overall it was a great experience. blessed to be here and everyone was...

    Interview process was pleasant and relaxed. One of the things I really appreciated was the interview was conducted at the hotel, around 0830, which minimizes the stress. A presentation was given describing the company (50+ aircraft/10,000 employees/domeciles ets) and reviewing logs prior to interview starting. After the presentation they lead the candidates to a separate waiting area and begin the individual interviews. It started with HR questions (tell me about...

    Interviewers were pretty cool. TBH they both seemed like they didn't want to be there but they certainly "played nice" to me. Two recruiters did the interview. They basically read through a script of questions all on 10-9 and approach plate to KBLM, then a few more about thunderstorms. Oh, and a ridiculously long METAR. TSE50 and TSB03 tripped me up. Everything on here prepped me and the email they send on what to prepare for was spot on. HR questions are on here but its a TMAAT...

    The Piedmont interview process was very personable and friendly. The pilot recruiting team is engaged and very helpful. I had a great experience throughout the process from the informational video session they put on to the one-on-one call I had with a recruiter and finally with the two interviews. The day of your interview you'll have a company overview session with one of the recruiters. This one is totally low stress as they just go over the basics of the company, the growth goals, pay...

    The interview was conducted by one pilot and one pilot recruiter . The feeling of the interview was very conversational and felt very relaxed. It started with introductions and a review of my resume. During the interview, there was some back-and-forth about different questions they had for me in my background, as well as questions that I had for them. Toward the end of the interview, they started to share some of the benefits and the pay scale offered by Piedmont. There really wasn’t...

    Very casual atmosphere, they make you feel comfortable, (view the study guide of this website).  Hr type questions, thent ech questions started with reading a Metar. Just know all the codes.  Discussion about alternates, and when needed. Discuss icing. They show you a picture of an anvil cloud. Which way to avoid? Discuss microbursts. What are they, when and where do they occur? What will you see in the cockpit during this? Discuss general windshear escape maneuver. How...
