Any additional information you would like to add. | If you stay at the Hilton I would walk to Headquarters instead of taking Van. Take a left as you walk out the hotel, continue to a stop light. Take a right and walk 150 feet until you reach a second stop light. Continue to go straight (100ft) and head towards the guard shack to get your security badge. Takes 5 mins. Most the time is waiting for long stop lights. I was pretty overwhelmed with the amount of study material from my friends and websites. I did not start studying hard for the interview until roughly 3 weeks out. I read ANA and Everything explained. If I had to do it all over again I would have liked to go to a live Emerald coast seminar ( I couldn’t because loads to DTW were horrible) so I should have signed up early so I would give myself a few chances to get to one. I would read T34 guide Read Everything Explained RST and go through all flashcards until I felt comfortable/memorized Topical study guides be familiar with them Do practice JKT’s and Math Trainer (you learn a lot of mental math tricks there) Cog trainer do once every other day. If you do multiple tests back to back I believe it becomes counter productive. The end I was averaging around 2100-2200 HR just be yourself. They are getting very tired of interviewees going in giving autopilot answers. My HR was more a discussion than anything. Reading Ride reports every few days was also very helpful and calmed my nerves. I thank all those prior to me who posted and interacted with on RSTfacebook. I had 4 logbooks. The first two up until I got hired by my first 121 gig were pretty sloppy in my opinion. Doing it all over again I strongly suggest biting the bullet and doing electronic. I was very worried about my logbooks because they didn’t match Airline Apps. I was about 50 hours higher on my total time in my logbooks compared to Airline Apps. I had a very simple cover page with my totals (Total time, PIC JET, Multi-engine, SIC). I put a lettered tag under each check ride and when I upgraded. (I think mine was A-F They didn’t ask any questions about it, but I did lose a lot of sleep thinking about it. |
Is their anything you wish you could have done different to prepare you for this process? |
Everyone was extremely professional, outgoing, and supportive
