April Compass Interview

[nedflembag]

Interview packet consisted of a basic letter with all the info about the interview. Interview and Sim is at Pan Am in Eagen. An additional pilot information form that needs to be filled out and faxed back. Thats about it with hotel lists, but no more info on Compass itself. I recieved mine via email, and it says one was fedexed to my house but I havn't gotten it yet. Just wondering if anyone has taken the written and where primarilly the questions come from? Thanks

Thought there might be something along those lines. Thanks for the heads up- definitely something to consider.

Got the invite also. June 25th

Anyone know how many have been hired? Are they still hiring for capt. or just for fo's?

Got another job offer, so I will not be going to the Compass interview.

I had no communication from Compass before I got the interview letter. I filled out the online application back in late March. I heard nothing until the FedEx guy showed up the other day with a letter. Later that same day I got an e-mail with all of the same stuff as the FedEx packet.

The way they did this seemed a little odd. Most companies will call and invite you to an interview and then give you a range of dates to fit your schedule. Compass just sends you a letter telling you that you have an interview on a certain date.

Yeah, agreed!!
I like the part where they say "we will make every effort to reschedule, however, we cannot guarantee our ability to do so."

My schedule at work is set for the rest of the summer. One week on one off. I work the week of my interview. My vacation was bidded for last fall so if I want go, I have to call in sick or take my chances of getting rescheduled.

Heyas,

That's fairly typical for a Minnesota company. Everyone there thinks the sun revolves around Minneapolis and, of course, so should your schedule.

Interview started with a brief slide presentation about the company and future plans. Talked about pay during training and first few years. $22 and change FO first year and high $50's CA first year. Do not remember rate of pay during training.

Next brought to a 727 briefing room. Was given a few minutes to fly around and get a feel for the sim. Asked to demonstrate a/s changes, basic manuevers, descent while slowing speed and turning to a heading, fly straight to VOR then given holding instructions. Told them what kind of entry, performed the entry then sim ended.

Typical HR interview. Asked about previous employers, situational, nothing I have not read from any other interview gouge.

Technical test was very interesting. Once you answer a question on the computer, no going back for review or changing an answer.

Did PRIA paperwork, employment and residence history. Then left for a drug test. Off to the airport to go home.

Day went by quickly. Done shortly after lunch.
