Default Re: Piedmont Interview May 3rd

I took the interview with Pedmont on April 24th.

For the written I would recommend studying the ATP Gleim, Jepp L charts and approach plates, Part 121 regs, and the basic stuff from the AIM. Light gun signals, runways lighting, etc. You should also learn the crew bases and the 4 names of the people in management. I would not advise just reading gouges and old tests since the test continually changes but the topic content remains the same.

The for the sim your a given a basic approach. I had to take off, fly vectors, intercept a VOR radial, enter a hold which was part of the procedure turn for the ILS, and fly the ILS to the ground. They will give you a great pre sim briefing. For the sim I would advise practicing intercepts, holds, and approaches in some short of flight simulator. The sim uses a cross hair flight director that you should be familiar with. Flying the flight director will make the sim go a lot smoother.

The interview portion is with HR and the director of training. Both are very nice people and laid back. There weren't any technical questions, more trying to figure learn the person you are and if they would mind sitting next to you for 2 hours on a flight.

Enjoy your interview and make sure you have breakfast at the hotel before you go. It can be along day. If you have any questions let me know.
