With whom will I be working?
Our interview coaches have, at one point, made their living interviewing professional pilots at various aviation companies; some with charter, some with the regional airlines, some with the low-cost carriers, some with the major or legacy airlines, and some with all of the above. They have each interviewed thousands of pilots and have seen thousands of resumes; they've all seen a lot of strange and unique things! Our Coaches have experience and first-hand knowledge of what works and what doesn't, what companies want to see in a potential hire, and what will be a deal breaker. They have spent hours talking with recruiters from other regionals, majors, and 135 carriers at dozens and dozens of recruiting and industry events. Our Interview Coaches are coming to you from a place of significant industry know-how. They're there to help and put years of past and recent interview skills to work for you and contribute to your success.
