I applied online and was contacted within a week about the position. I had a phone screen which at first went over basic questions about my experience and my interest in the company. The phone call then became unusual when the manager began asking questions such as: how many aircrafts does Frontier have; what types of aircrafts does Frontier fly; what is Frontier's web address; describe the 3 Financial statements. Given that this is a professional job, I did not expect the interview to become a trivia contest. At the end of the call I was asked if I would be able to come in for an in person interview in a few days time. At 4:40pm, the day before the interview, an HR rep finally reached out and confirmed my interview for the next morning. Maybe that was disorganization on their end or a clever way to test one's commitment to the position. I don't know but it certainly left me scrambling to make plans. The next morning, I was sat in a small conference room. I had been told by the HR rep that I would be meeting with 2 people and it would take about an hour. That turned out to be untrue as I ended up meeting with 4 people, which doubled the length of the interview. Again this left me high and dry as far as scheduling is concerned. It was unprofessional and frankly disrespectful. The first two interviewers were current analysts and they were fantastically nice and informative. The first interviewer asked basic questions about my experience and education. The second person only asked behavioral questions such as "tell me about a time when you experienced conflict." The third and fourth interviewers were upper management. To my surprise, both of them sprang case studies on me. I have had a few case study interviews and was familiar with the framework. If you are not familiar with the framework, these have the potential to be humiliating. The scenarios were not difficult to approach but the managers opted to rapidly throw unnecessary and frustrating confounders into the mix. One of the cases was a simple enough market estimation question which devolved into me painstakingly backending even the most basic information (ex. estimating how many planes the company owns) and doing long division by hand after I was told I was not allowed to use a calculator. During all of this the interviewer's demeanor shifted from friendly to rushed and aggravated. Maybe this was a test to see how one performed under pressure in a hostile environment. However, if this is any indication of the type of culture that Frontier has to offer, I would rather take my chances elsewhere. Bottom line: I knew before I even left that I would not be comfortable in that work environment and would be unlikely to accept any position with the company. While I was happy that the process was comparatively short, if I could do it over again I would not have spent my time interviewing with Frontier.

The interview process at Frontier Airlines was chill and straightforward. The questions were focused mainly on the role’s requirements and my past experiences. Overall, it felt casual, with a friendly atmosphere that made it easy to engage with the interviewers.
