HR Questions | App review Internal/external customers give me an example from your experience As Captain enroute from US to Japan find out destination is closed do to natural disasters WWYD- followup what would you say to the passengers in a PA As FO Captain repeatedly waits until last minute to start second engine and departs without company required 2 min warm up he says to save fuel WWYD- that doesn’t work he tells you to pound sand WWYD- after the trip anything else you would do or just let the next FO suffer thru it You’re the CA enroute you get an anti-skid caution, after all non-normal procedures and checklists are done what are you thinking and going to do. Followup what would you tell the FAs when you briefed them, would you declare and emergency Any questions for us (the interview panel) or anything else you’d Ike to add |

Any additional information you would like to add. | A lot more idle time waiting around than anticipated on Day 1, I did HR early morning and finished Testing later in the afternoon some fatigue definitely set in, you can take breaks between computer tests I’d recommend it, I walked to the restroom splashed some water on my face and broke off a small piece of chocolate between each test just to reset mentally. Day 2 is no joke I drew blanks during some of the psychologist’s questions as a result I’m waiting for a PARB review | ||||||
