  • I interviewed with Abigail, who is newer to the company, but was a 121 pilot previously. She was very easy to get along with, upbeat, and made me feel relaxed during the process. She did begin by telling me about the current hiring freeze & that nobody knows when hiring will begin again. If selected, I would be placed in a candidate pool to be called when they eventually begin assigning class dates again. She allowed me to not commence with the interview, but I elected to continue (I knew this in advance). She described her journey through professional aviation, told me a little about Wheels, and asked me about how I got into aviation. She asked me about my current jobs (full time instructor and SIC for FlightSafety). She asked the standard yes/no questions from the application. A couple more HR questions came after this, (view the study guide of this...

    Soon after applying I recived a link to schedule the interview. I was able to book it for a week later. The interview started off very casual, Abby did a very good job at keeping you relaxed, and making the interview a very pleasant experience.  Overall the interview was very similar to how it has been described here. Most of the questions were in the question bank, and were mostly pretty easy. The only part I had issues with where the METAR readings, and briefing a STAR into KPHX. It...

    I did my Interview with Abby and it was a great experience overall. Interview was similar to all the ones here before.

Then we moved on to the Technical part and some weather questions on Airmet, sigmet, fronts etc. then decoding a Meter and TAF along with part 91 and 135 regulations and questions if it is legal to shoot the approach. Questions on Jepp App plates and SID/STAR. Multi engine technical questions...

    Filled out application at 1250 and heard back next day to schedule the online interview. The soonest available slot was 7 weeks out. The interview was 1 1/2 hrs long. All interviewers are pilots (whether they fly for WUP or just have flying experience) and I will say I was impressed by her. Started with her background and then asked me to walk her through my resume. Asked a couple questions about my experience, plane I am currently flying, etc. Moved on to basic yes or no questions...
