The in person interview was a long day but overall pretty relaxed. Technical exam had a random mix of IFR questions, raw data high alt winds and temps decoding, how to go missed off a circling approach, ACARS, stall characteristics of a swept wing, circling radius for cat C, 135 duty times, max holding speeds, max procedure turn speed, speed limit under the bravo, alternate rules for 135. The in person interviews were mostly HR questions, which are in the gouges on here. The sim was a...

Assessment day was typical as described on this website. Started the day off with a shuttle to Vista's HQ, began with an hour long presentation about the company followed by a written test of 30 questions. Some weather, IFR, 135, Jepp chart, etc questions. After the exam they provided everyone with their in person interview and sim eval time. Be prepared to have a long day, some people did not finish until 9 pm. In-person interview was standard TMAY an TMAAT questions. Sim eval was very...

Just as described here, the phone call happens a few months ago. Basic HR questions, talking about the job, and 5 tech questions. They varied for person to person, but mostly Weather and IR stuff. Prepare for a long day. 11 hours total for the interview day. Started off with a presentation about the company, pretty informative. Then went into a written test. It was pretty tricky, bunch of 135, IR, Weather, icing… that sorta thing. Some of the questions were listed here.  I think...

This gouge was pretty well, all the info on here was correct. Went pretty in depth on scenario based questions are more directed towards satisfying the customer. That made it feel more like a conversation than an interview. Sim was a six pack Seminole. This is a pass or fail so don’t land with the gear up or not call for a checklist. It’s supposed to simulate a crew environment. I was about half scale deflection at times but I corrected and I think they are seeing if you catch...

The overall experience typically involves several key components: Preparation: This phase is crucial. Candidates often spend weeks reviewing technical knowledge, regulations, and aviation procedures. Practicing responses to common interview questions and conducting mock interviews can build confidence. Arrival: On the day of the interview, arriving early sets a positive tone. First impressions matter, and professional attire and punctuality contribute significantly. Introduction: The...

The interview was exactly as described by others here. I had a very easy going and down to earth lady who interviewed me. She started out by going over all the benefits that Vista has to offer and how great of a company they are. Spent probably close to 10-15 minutes on that portion then moved into talking about myself and how I got into aviation. Was just a very natural conversation, had no stupid questions.  Conversed for probably 20ish minutes about ourselves and then moved into...

The written test was really easy and every question was on this website. I got everything correct. Just read one time before my interview and that was perfect. Sim test was also very basic and nothing was hard. The examiner did every difficult thing and just gave me simple instruction. I did for 40mins sim test and it was very relaxing. I told him what airplane I fly and it was same airplane. They consider your airplane. Interview was for 50mins and very friendly. We just talked about my...

Everything described on this website about the overall experience from the phone screening to the sim at the end of the day is spot on what you can expect. Headquarters are very nice and the team is very kind/informative. However, yesterday at my group interview, they completely changed the technical written exam  It is a whole new exam. The questions were very random and ranged from things like pitot static blockages, ACARS, CPDLS, derived alternate minimums. Our entire group of...
