  • The interview experience was delightful. They really made everything as easy as possible to create a relaxed environment to be interviewed in. I stayed in the hotel across the street from the training center. The interview was at 10am, and I showed up a bit over an hour early. The morning of my interview I walked across the street to the training center, and the gate security buzzed me in and gave me directions to the building my interview would be at. I checked in at the front desk where they gave me a temporary badge and guided me to the cafeteria where I waited to be picked up by the interviewers. Once one of the hiring representatives arrived, they guided my group through the building where we dropped off our logbooks/flight plans, and bags. They gave us a quick tour of their museum area, which helped...

    I got there and sat at a table with the other interviewees. We chatted before a pilot came out to take us on a brief tour of the facilities. They then brought us to a room by HR where we met with the pilot who would be part of the interview panel. They led us to our interview rooms and we got started. The panel started with the HR portion, consisting of TMAAT questions. I was asked about five questions, which included both aviation and non-aviation-related questions. After this, I was given...

    Interview was scheduled for 0800. They request you arrive an hour early. I showed up at 0700, cleared security, and was led to the cafeteria where other candidates were waiting (6 total). An HR rep took us on a brief tour of the facility, and we dropped off our logbooks for review. We were led into a small classroom where the HR rep talked about the interview process and a little about United. One by one, a pilot interviewer came into the room and called us back. The first portion...

    My interview was for the United Aviate program as a student entering the United Aviate Academy with their Private Pilot License. The interview guide that Aviate sent me was, while not very long, inclusive of everything that was asked during the interview and did a good job of setting my expectations. One of the things that the guide told me to bring to the interview was a flight plan to my highest level of training, in my case a VFR plan at the PPL level. I prepared a flight plan...

    Overall the interview process with United was very seamless and comfortable. I arrived at 7:15 am for my 8 am interview and immediately met the 3 other guys who were also interviewing. Before then, I checked in with security and got my name tag as well as turned in my log book for review. We were then given a very quick tour of building B and showed the United History room with some cool artifacts. We then went into the waiting room and the pilot debriefed what would happen in the interview...

    All other reviews described exactly how the experience would be. I arrived an hour early to the building to check-in, where I was directed to the cafeteria to meet other Aviate applicants; there was a mix of current airline, military, and student pilots interviewing at the same time. A director eventually greeted us and took us through their museum before directing us to a room where our pilot interviewer would take us back to our interview room. Both interviews were incredibly welcoming and...

    The interview went exactly as the other people’s post suggest. Everything went smoothly. Flew in and stayed at a Hotel. The hotel had a shuttle to and from the training facility. I arrived around 8:45 for a 10am interview. Around 9:15 a pilot grabs the group of interviewers and takes us on a tour to calm our nerves. Once called into the interview room you sit infront of 2 HR ladies and 1 Pilot, the first 30 minutes are tell me about yourself and TMAAT. You then get a 10 minute break...

    The interview was very straight foreword and easy. The interview started by entering and checking in with security. The candidates met each other in the cafeteria for about 30 minutes. The representative from hiring welcomes everyone and leads you through the facility to the museum, where you are given time to look around. Before entering the museum we dropped off our logbooks and flight plans for the interview. Then the group waits for a Captain to take you back and begin the interview....

    Pretty much exactly like everything on here. Five tell me about a time questions, you can guarantee one or two, which are about conflict and a breakdown in communication. My situation based scenario involved the flight from Baltimore to Houston. Clearwater everywhere. Main cabin door, pressurization issue in route, what do you do… Closer to landing, airport is closed, had to hold, (view the study guide of this website).   Began and ended with tell me about yourself, and why...

    Entered the building 30 minutes early before the scheduled time. All the other guys getting interviewed were there already, I was the last to show up. (The email did state to show up about an hour early.) I sat down and talked to the other pilots getting interviewed. Some were applying for other positions, like a FO or Captain for United, whereas some were applying for United's aviate program (which is what I was doing). We talked until someone came and introduced herself to our group. We...

    Gouges of the interviews were spot on and they were helpful. Most of them were very detailed and provide questions that I got in the interview.
