You arrive an hour early and to check-in. They make you feel very comfortable. I interviewed for the Aviate program as a PPL. A pilot comes in and introduces himself, then you surrender your logbooks. I brought original and digital copies. They encourage you to drink water and offer that. The pilot then talks about his journey to United, offers to answer any questions, and takes you on a tour of the facility, including the museum. We came back into a holding room where we got a few minutes...

Great experience, exactly as described here. Use this website and study the questions/scenarios. I stayed across the street and caught a ride from the hotel shuttle. I showed up early to the center and met up with the rest of my interview group - there were 6 of us, all UMPP guys. A Captain came and greeted us, gave us the tour, and briefed us on the specifics of the day. After that, we were each called into our interviews: Tell us about yourself, 5 TMAATs, break, Technical Assessment, and...

Really enjoyable experience. Strongly recommend staying at one of the hotels United recommends to ease getting onto their campus. Starting with the security guard who brought you into the building everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. It seemed like every pilot in the building came over to say hello and wish the group luck. The experience was the same as everyone else describes. Very relaxed tour. Then sit down with 1 pilot and 1 HR. The interview portion seemed very regimented and...

The UMPP program was exactly as described in previous write-ups. We were greeted by two pilots who were super friendly and gave us a quick tour. We were led to to holding room and given some information about the interview process. When it was time for the interview a pilot came and showed me to the interview room. Cellphones and smart watches were left on the table outside and could not be accessed until after the process was complete. The HR portion was 45 minutes and both the pilot and...

Like many of the other trip reports on this application, my interview and experience was very much in line with everyone else. Using AviationInterviews.com proved to be very helpful in preparing me for both the HR questions and the CRM portion of the interview. As advertised, I was asked to tell the interview panel about myself followed by 5 TMAATS. The TMAATS fell into 4 categories: customer service, leadership, decision making, and conflict resolution. Some of the questions fit into more...

Gouges here were very accurate on interview experience. It took a long time for me to hear back from UAL after submitting an application, even with a meet & greet endorsement from a chief pilot. Over a year from initial application to receiving email invitation for the online leadership assessment (Hogan test). After completing the leadership assessment, had email the next day initiating to schedule an interview, which I scheduled within a few weeks. Interviewed on a Tuesday, heard...

Honestly, it was a really good experience, exactly as described here. My one, anecdotal, piece of advice would be to use this website and Study! As others described, I showed up early to the center and met up with the rest of my interview group - there were 8 of us, and we all hit it off right away. A couple of FOs eventually came up and greeted us, gave us the tour, and briefed us on the specifics of the day. After that, we were each called into our interviews: Tell us about yourself, 5...

Interview went exactly as gouged on this website. I really have nothing to add. 5 TMAATs that are similar to the study guide. Technical LAX-SFO Briefed some of the 13 items in the packet, but he also said to consider some of them briefed. In flight my malfunction was a Yaw Damp light. Ran the QRH and the fault cleared. Advised dispatch and maintenance via ACARS and continued the flight. In SFO went around and held. Given a fuel number and three options to divert. Chose Oakland. Was also...

Other entries on this site are very accurate in terms of how the start of the experience occurs. I brought 2 resumes for interviewers but they had it on their ipads. they do write while you talk. technical was newark to dullus. briefed flight using 13 items. fog rolled in (call dispatch for takeoff alternate). fog clears. LLWS what are we thinking ( to 1 and flaps 1 numbers for my plane brief WS escape manuever). IDG failure run QRH etc. they had me read in on their ipad. diversion (given...
