[lowtimedriver]

Drop a few F-Bombs in the first couple minutes.

Breaks the ice.

LOL!:nuts:

 

[MesabaDriver]

You've Got A Pulse Right? Youll Be Fine. In Fact You've Got Chief Pilot Written All Over Ya...

 

[mcjohn]

Don't be fake or full of crap. Be confident but not cocky. Look good, be happy and relaxed.

And for gods sake... I can't believe no one mentioned it...have some down to earth questions prepared for them. Help break their boredom by allowing them to talk about themselves.

Probably too late. How'd it go?

 

[Rez O. Lewshun]

Ask em what does Paul Foley do?

 

[John Pennekamp]

Mesaba? YGBFKM! Here I was waiting to see Delta.

Mesaba is so short handed, they're hiring captains off the street. Unless you're a complete jackass you'll get the job. Relax.

 

[ImbracableCrunk]

Ask em what does Paul Foley do?

I love it.

"So, Mister All-but-hired-pilot, do you have any questions for us?"

"Yeah, I've seen these pilots with stickers that say 'WDPFD.' What does that mean?"

"NEXT!"

Don't you do it, Quasar!

 

[fly4ever]

No feathering on a saab - let the "Autocoarsen computer" do the work. Never had one fail in a pinch yet although they do work sometimes when not needed....; )

 

[txpilot1974]

Introduce yourself as Pilot754.

 

[Amish RakeFight]

Convice yourself of how little you really want the job. You'll be much more relaxed and less tense.

 

[QuasarZ]

lol some good replies. It actually went really well, a lot easier than I thought! Now I just have to play the waiting game.

 

[jnault]

don't forget to spank it, you can't in there with a loaded weapon

 

[bailey3083]

Dude just be yourself and if you dont know something take a second to think then tell them that you do not recall.
Or you can do like I did at my United interview in 1998 and walk into the interview asking them how much longer as I had friends to meet at the slopes at 5pm.

 

[mamba20]

Go see a movie, do something that will COMPLETELY take your mind off of it. If you dont know it by now, you won't after a night of negative learning craming. You can't learn it all anyways. Best of luck.

 

[Stifler's Mom]

"Yah never go on a date (interview) with the gun loaded!"

--Woogie, There's Something About Mary

What is that?

On your ear.

No, your left ear. Is that... is that hair gel?

 

[Uncle Bunkle]

Also, don't forget to flog the dolphin!!

...or whip the Bishop, wax the helmet, or punch the clown...

 

[hoover]

I'ts an interview for a First Officer position on a Saab 340 that pays about, what? 16K a year? Your life is not going to end if you don't get the job.

 

[pdub20s]

Just remember when flying those Saabs..
Mixtures, Throttles, Props, Identify, Verify, Feather.

and you're in like Flynn!

bwahaha...silly props!! Its all about "SET MAX THRUST"

Exactly, remember your doing them the favor by taking a job that pays garbage. Remember, your interviewing the company not the other way around.

 

[Airline RC]

Be sure you show for the interview about 20 minutes late. Go into a story how it (and nothing else) is not your fault. If you show up on time and act like you have half a brain, you will scrare em to death. They will figure you are some kinda weirdo and will turn you down. Just be yourself.

I did that to Northwest. I got shot down, but it was sure fun.
