• I interviewed  with Midwest 16 years ago with 5400 hr of flying time, no busted checkrides, 2 typeratings . I got the job. Getting laid off is still might be better than the "shell game" new pilots face . Good luck
• I attended the Republic Interview on Wednesday, 3/5/08 at their IND HQ. The Hotel is the Holiday Inn next to the "Pyramid" in north Indy. It is Not by the Airport, or downtown. The Lafayette Limo picks up outside baggage claim area, at the Transportation Center. Wait for the free limo! A cab is $55.00 and the other ride services in the center are about 35.00 plus tax. The hotel is fine,$41.00 plus tax. Food available in, or around the hotel. I suggest you prepare for eating breakfast in the morning prior to the interview. There is not so much as a crumb at Republic, and the machines are full of junk food and candy. Soda and water is $1.25 a bottle. They did provide coffee, however you aren't able to get to the coffee, or soda machines until near lunch time. So be sure to eat, or bring power bars. One guy couldn't stop saying how hungry he was. We were all laughing, but we were hungry too. All the machine had was Ho-ho's, chips, and candy. The gouge from the prior testimonial was right on. If you follow it to the letter, you should be prepared for everything. Everything is straight forward. Glenda and Captain Tim are very fair, professional interviewers. The tone of the interview was straight forward. I don't think they want to intimidate you in any fashion. They want you to know they are fair honest people representing a fair honest company, Republic Airways. I don't think they want you to be intimidated because you will be more relaxed, and they can tell if you will fit there company. Again, the people of Republic are great. I think they would be great to work for/with. The only not so straight forward part of the interview was the checkride. I will try to explain: (The profile was fair, take off level off fly to a published holding pattern and hold. Then do a full procedure ILS to mins., go missed back to the hold. Fair enough, and gives them a chance to see your basic instrument scan, and skills. The misleading part is the SIM guy gives you a checklist with power settings that will fly you through the roof! The PCATD is a Barron. Don't use the power setting on the checklist he provides. You better be prepared to use 25/24 for the climb, 23/20 for cruise, and 21/16 for approach and landing. If you don't, you are in for a long stressful sim. Overall the experience was good, but the sim is tricky. They said we would hear something by the end of the week either way.
