THE PREMIER CAREER COACHING COMPANY FOR PILOTS

About

About

For more than 20 years, I’ve helped pilots navigate every step of their professional journey, from low-time pilots seeking their first job to seasoned aviators earning offers from legacy carriers in the United States. Pilots across the country have trusted me to help them succeed, and the results speak for themselves.

Before launching My Pilot Interview, I worked as a pilot recruiter and spent nearly two decades supporting pilots exclusively through word of mouth. That experience shaped my approach: discreet, honest, and focused on what actually moves hiring decisions, not what looks good on paper.

With a deep understanding of how interview panels evaluate candidates, I coach pilots to move beyond the “checkride style” of answering, short, technical responses that lack narrative, context, and proof of soft skills. Instead, I teach pilots to deliver detailed, compelling answers that demonstrate judgment, communication, teamwork, leadership, and situational awareness in a way hiring teams recognize and value.

 

I offer tailored resume support, application reviews, and one-on-one interview coaching designed to help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and competitive advantage, no matter where you are in your aviation career.

Sincerely,

Iain Holmes
