Hey everyone! I have my digital interview scheduled next week. Would anyone who went through the process recently share their experience/ questions asked. I'd really appreciate that. Thanks!

I applied with 1150 and A's written. No multi pic ( 25 Dual). No internal reference.

Congratulations buddy!

It’s mostly Hr questions. They are gonna ask u all the questions in the initial application technically. Have some stories in deferent scenarios inside the plane.

Has anyone that’s recently live interviewed heard back? If so, what ground school dates were you given.

I got an email last week , when they secure the gs dates for May/June they will send conditional contract.

Have you heard anything back from them ?

Thank you very much! I did the video interview on Tuesday. Was told that they’d get back within 4 weeks. Also told that they’re only hiring for Toronto base right now.

Would you please share if you got a gs date or equipment ? How long did they take to get back? Is there a sim eval? Much appreciated. Thanks

The ground gs dates are still in process I believe.

If you have less than 1500 you will need a sim eval but above 1500 no sim.

It really depends, I heard back within a week but my friends heard back anywhere from 3 days up to a month.
But it’s on average 3 weeks.

If you feel good about your interview then don’t worry and just be patient. No news is sometimes good news 😅

Good luck buddy

I think the sim evaluations are for new hires without Multi crew experience. Had a friend with around 1800 hrs mostly instructing had to go through sim evaluation.

Thats what I was told as well. If you had a couple of ppc rides under your belt already then usually they skip the sim eval.

I wonder if they'd be more interested in a 1000hr guy with multi crew, turbine etc, etc. Or in a 1500hr flight instructor.

There are 2 ground schools in May,
I do believe all the May gs pilots already got the initial emails just waiting for contracts.

They all did interviews between 1-2 months ago

But there are gs every month till the end of the year
