The interview was an HR interview only for initial entry into the Cadet program. It started right on time with an FO and Captain. They discussed my resume and introduced themselves. There was some back and forth chit chat during this time and once they had gone over their backgrounds they asked me to tell them about my self outside of the resume. I gave them my story of what led me to join the military and my career history and what led me to flying. Once that was over they asked if I had any...

Really good experience! If they give you a chance to get to know them use it to your advantage. HR portion of the interview was quite simple, their only asking you these questions to see if they like you as a person. Be calm, and answer their questions genuinely and you should be fine. Don’t be cocky, be confident and try to be humble! You will be... -

Interview went exactly as explained in many of the feedbacks on this site. I also did a practice session with my assigned mentor. The interview started with a quick introduction and went right into the questions. (view the study guide of this website). Presented a METAR for KDCA and asked me to decode it in its entirety. Then that led to a question about a departure alternate and if it was necessary. The next question was about a TAF at a destination airport (KCLT). I was asked... -

The interview was very similar to the study guide. There were a few additional questions. “When can I start to turn after going miss?”, and a few more but nothing crazy. I did not have to brief any plates, it was all them asking a question and me answering it. You will be fine if you study basic instrument rules and Jep... -

Started by asking personal questions and wanted information on what got me interested in flying and what my passions are. Then asked me about the kind of culture I wanted to work in. Also asked about what I knew about PSA. Then went into approach plates, aircraft systems, and what I would do in different situations with emergencies. We talked a little about the different bases on... -

Asked to look at TAF and see if an alternate is needed, 123 rule. Then asked what is VMC speed, then what is your critical engine. Next asked about types of icing and most... -

Similar to the study guide, please refer and use this for your technical interview! They will provide this to you upon submitting your interview date/time. You are only required to bring your pilot certification and personal documents, but you do not do any additional flight planning for extra documents that you would need to bring. The study guide provided has a STAR, an instrument approach, some commercial knowledge, etc. The interview is “point and ask” style and mostly goes... -

Technical interview was not bad at all. This study guide is basically the whole interview exactly. I was interviewed by two first officers who were very kind and joked around with me a little bit which put me at ease. Started out reading a METAR and TAF, make sure you know the remarks section. Asked me if I needed a takeoff alternate based off the METAR and destination alternate based off the TAF. We then looked at a taxi diagram, asked me about hotspots, ARP, and Airport beacon. Then we got... -

Quick and easy. The gouge on this site included every question I was asked. Both of the FO interviewers were great resources for my questions about PSA, the commuter policy, and hiring. One of the interviewers was also my assigned mentor. That put me at ease. After they introduced themselves and their experiences, I did the same. I was then asked about flight time, current ratings, accidents/incidents, and check ride failures. I think the most important with these last items is to... -

Met virtually. Hr portion was basic but as listed in the study guide. Answer honestly and thoughtfully. The study guide here covers it all. Know obscure metar codes. Read a metar then a Taf to determine if an alternate was required. Study Jepp plates, SIDS / STARS / 10-9s. Be able to brief an ILS. Know your holding speeds and IFR...
