Summary of Qualifications: ATP, 3,000hrs, 1500 turbine PIC
Were you offered the job? Yes
Pilot Interview Profile:

Chris Fair: Chief Pilot, Todd (unknown last name #30 seniority), Director of HR-Mary Tunnel.

Questions: What do you know about Frontier. Why work for Frontier? What makes you a good leader. Have you flown with someone you didn't like? Tell me an emergency you had. Todd pulled out the DEN class B, asked: You're over DEN at 11,000ft, what airspeed can you fly? On the Landr Arrival DEN, you are at FL350, when do you have to start down to make Landr at 250kts and 17000ft. Brief the ATL ILS 26L approach. RVR goes below mins when outside the marker, can you continue? RVR goes below mins when inside the marker, can you continue? You are at DA, what do you need to see to continue. If you continue, what altitude? What do you need to see to land? Chief Pilot want to but DA what are you going to do? Capt. won't deice what are you going to do? They pull out the Midway airport diagram, What is the minimum vis you need to take off 31? What would other pilots say about you. Tell me about a policy you didn't agree with.

Overall a laid back experience. Chris Fair seemed like a decent guy and friendly guy, Todd was a good guy and Mary Tunnel well, lets just say there is a good reason she is not a flight attendant. And yes I did get the job.

Were you offered the job? Don't Know
Pilot Interview Profile:

Interviewed September. Can't really tell you a lot as my interviewers schedules got mixed up and I ended up with a pretty brief one on one with the DO. I can tell you from some research that the usual interview usually follows the following brief profile.

One on one with chief pilot and director or training. Nothing too technical. It is basically just to get to know you. They ask the basics to include:

why do you want to work for Frontier? why do you want to leave your current employer? Tell us about Frontier. Do you know what we pay? What will you do if a major calls tomorrow? Do you know we have a training bond? (one year, $7500)

If the first portion goes well you will be turned over to the DO. He will ask you a few more questions and if that goes well you will be placed in a hiring pool.

No sim, no medical.

The growth projection for 2000 is 20% which means around 4 more airplanes and at least 40 pilots.

These are really nice people and easy to talk with. I was placed in the pool and told to expect a class no sooner than February. They will be having classes from February through October 2000.

I hope you can do something with this info. I know it's not much but it is all I can recall.
