One-on-One Pilot Career Coaching That Works

20+ years of experience helping thousands of pilots get a CJO.

About

About

For more than 20 years, the team behind My Pilot Interview has helped pilots navigate the hiring process at every stage of their careers, from low-time aviators pursuing their first professional opportunity to experienced pilots preparing for interviews with legacy carriers.

 

Getting hired as a professional pilot involves more than performing well in an interview. A strong network, a well-written resume, an error-free application, and the ability to clearly communicate your experience and decision-making all play an important role in earning a CJO.

 

Through years of experience supporting pilots in both airline and corporate hiring processes, our team has developed a deep understanding of how interview panels evaluate candidates. Technical knowledge is expected, but hiring teams are also looking for sound judgment, professionalism, communication skills, leadership, and situational awareness.

 

Many pilots approach interviews with what we call a “checkride mindset,” providing short, technical answers that demonstrate knowledge but don’t fully showcase the depth of their experience. At the same time, we strongly believe successful candidates should never sound rehearsed or scripted. We help pilots understand the strategy behind strong interview responses so they can develop answers that are clear, genuine, and sincere. Our focus is on helping pilots communicate their real experiences in a way that naturally demonstrates the qualities hiring teams are looking for.

 

Our services are designed to support you at every stage of their career. We provide the guidance, structure, and insight needed to help you get a CJO.
