What's the latest rumor mill? I figured there would be tons of buzz leading right up to the vote but it's really been quiet, at least out in minny. The only thing I keep hearing is an increase in detroit flying, but not necessarily a domicile. Someone please top that.
Seniority #'s 37 and 260. 260 (1998 hire) is an upgrade.

Preparedness is huge. A lot of weight is put into your appearance, your paperwork, and how much you have prepared for the technical.

Most important is that you are a good guy/gal that we can fly a 4 day with. If you are and you demonstrate your attitude, leadership, and professionalism (the three big things they look for) you'll have no problem.

Don't sweat the technical, just be prepared...that's really all its for, to judge how much you prepared for an interview (which indicates to them how much you'll prepare for training).

Good luck!

Exactly what Crazy Canuck said. Preparation is the key word. The gouges on aviationinterviews.com are super accurate. I also watched a Jepp DVD to study plates. I still watch that DVD so I can prep for my class in less than 2 weeks. As for the interviewers, the CA I interviewed with was a great guy. He looked through my logbooks, talked about my time as a cross utilized agent at RDM, talked about aerodynamics, my jet engine drawing, PA44 electric system, Jepp charts, 91.175., no sim for me for one reason or another.

He had me do a weight and balance and create a VFR flight plan from RDM to SFO using my E6B....just joshin, lol.

Anyway, like anything else, if you study, the hardest tasks become easy. Aviationinterviews.com buddy! Good luck in June.

and don't sweat it too much, even if you completely bomb the interview, they'll still offer you the job. There're down to hiring anybody that can fog a mirror, just like everybody else now. It's really sad, but true.
