The airlines know that the pilots coming to interview probably have some clue on how to fly....The written tests that they give boil down how much an applicant prepared him/herself for their interview. It doesn't matter if one has a DC-9 type rating or is a low time CFI or 5000 hour furloughed 121 pilot. Anyone can study the ATP gleim book and pass the written...they want to see how much you prepared yourself which shows how much you really want to work for their airline.
