| Cog Test | Same as you’ve heard… I had done the trainer a total of maybe 5-10 times but felt like it did the job | ||||||
| Cog Math Questions | Mental math/percentage | ||||||
| HR Questions | You go through your app and anything they want to highlight… for me they seemed pretty concerned with my speeding tickets, and I just didn’t have a great explanation… any advice out there?? Couple checkrides fails in upt they wanted me to explain. Other curveballs, what was a recent event that’s had the greatest impact on the airline industry, and do I think there should be a retirement age? What would I do if I couldn’t fly anymore. Also, I had a nonstandard story into aviation… really seemed concerned with my connection/passion for flying since my bachelors/masters weren’t connected. WWYD – compressor stall at cruise. They asked me if I had done HR prep and then asked me a customer service question. | ||||||
| How long prior to the interview did you prepare for the HR portion of the interview? | 2-3 weeks | ||||||
| Which HR Prep service did you use and did it help? | ECIC | ||||||
| Any additional information you would like to add. | Testing goes: cog, personality test, job knowledge… any advice out there on the personality part? I’ve never heard anything, not sure if anyone’s ever failed for that. I just tried to be honest, but some felt like I could go either way. Prob not a big deal. | ||||||
| Is there anything you wish you could have done different to prepare you for this process? | I was nervous about the speeding tickets, and all I ever heard was just be honest… but never how to explain? Still not sure… For me, I psyched myself out and didn’t frame things as well, being sure to focus on what the airlines want to hear. Advice from my experience: be able to explain everything on the app that’s negative and just be in the frame of mind to “sell yourself” as a passionate flyer (if not obvious in your background) and a company employee (even if you can’t fly anymore!). Good luck!! |
Relaxed, but serious
