Wonderful interview experience at Republic Airways last Friday. Republic Airways started with a phone screen to confirm flight hours, any incidents, accidents, or failed check rides, then they scheduled an in-person interview in Indianapolis, IN at their new training facility. Three areas that impressed me most: quality of staff (staff like working for RA and wished me good luck on my interview numerous times...very cool), organization (from flights...upbeat and professional flight crew, airport pick-up, check-in/out, breakfast, tour of the training facility, Q&A with Captains, FO, and the interview...as they say well oiled machine), and the facility (new, well laid out and impressive). Be well prepared for the interview and it will go well. The interview is conducted by one HR staff member who asked numerous "tell me a time when" questions, and a Captain - Check Airman who asked basic technical questions (METAR, TAF, and specific questions from a Jeppesen IAP, weather mins, alternate full requirements, aerodynamic questions and hypoxia). All-in-all, the interview was conversational and it was conducted professionally. Low threat for those well prepared. Waiting for CJO. Best of luck to everyone.

Felt very welcomed. Campus is beautiful. Flew in the night before and stayed in their hotel. Breakfast provided. Tour of the property followed by a presentation and a Q&A with pilots. Interviews followed that.
