  • Relied a lot on other feedback from this source and a few other pilots in the hiring process just prior to me. My experience closely aligned with what others have reported here, except that the process was drawn out over about 7 months. I suppose my luck in the timing was just such as the company seemed to be adjusting to some changes, including more aircraft purchase and a boost in hiring. First was the technical interview (conducted virtually). It almost exclusively focused on technical questions about the charts that were sent to me about a week prior to the interview. It was relatively short but quite technical. Each procedure seemed to have at least one aspect that was non-standard or unusual. I made a point to seek out what that might be. Then I raised a few...

    Interview was very straight forward. After a brief introduction we jumped straight into the plates all of which I was given ahead of time to study. LDA approach KSNA 20R: was asked questions, (view the study guide of this website).  At the end I asked her questions about the company and we talked about what the next steps would be. I was called back for my next interview (HR and SIM) 6 days...

    Best of luck to you all! Once first contacted they will ask about a time that works best for you to do a Virtual Tech Interview. This virtual interview will be regarding all instrument knowledge (and some VFR knowledge). They will send you plates before the virtual interview that they will use. Review, study, and know everything about those plates. If they were to point on any plate and say, "what is that? or what does that mean?" Etc. you should know. Be ready for a scenario with...

    Technical wasn’t bad at all, sent some help plates a week prior. Study them. Got a call 2 days after to schedule the in person HR and Sim eval. Travel accommodations were easy, nice hotels. Was there for about 6 hours. Learned a bit about the company w the presentation. Toured the hangar. HR part was quick just asked some simple questions. Sim was laggy and not a great sim( a local flight schools) overall just a departure and ILS. Nothing too difficult. Just show that you can fly it...

    The interview was fairly straightforward. First interview is a technical interview lasting about 20 minutes. They send several charts in advance and they ask about a few of them. Refer to study guide for questions. They fly you out to Portsmouth, NH for the in person interview. That lasted about 4 hours. There was about an hour long HR presentation, hr interview where 4 questions were asked, document review, and a simulator evaluation. The sim consisted of one departure, some vectoring, and...

    Straightforward and similar to the rest. Had a technical interview on Jeppesen charts sent by the company before being invited for an in person interview that was primarily introduction on the company followed by a simple sim...

    Very straight forward. The planesense team is exceptional, and professional. Please dress for the occasion. You’re applying to be a professional pilot, flying very expensive aircraft, with very high end clients. (Wear a suit……) HR portion was straight forward. No studying required. The SIM was also straight forward. You’re flying a G1000 in a sky-lane 182. They treat it like a 172 and leave the prop and mixture full forward, so no extra thinking is required. You...

    Very straight forward, as everyone else has stated study the plates well ahead of time for the tech interview, got invited for in person for HR/sim eval and facility tour. Hr was very straight forward, they are looking that you will fit the company mission statement as well as work well with other people. Sim eval is KMMU sid and then vectors to the ils back in to the missed. They are not looking for perfection just looking for you to be able to listen to directions well and are able to...

    Real straight forward. Tech interview was going over Jeppesen plates and a couple of IFR questions. In person interview, started with a presentation about Planesense, HR interview was a few questions about yourself then a scenario about a go around with a non responsive captain. Sim was easy enough KMMU Morristown 7 departure the vectors to the ILS23 and a missed...

  11. The information I was looking for regarding PlaneSense was spot on for all the areas, from HR, tech interview, sim evaluation, and interview questions.
