Recently got picked up by a fighter unit. This thread was incredibly useful during my preparation so I wanted to return the favor. Here were some of my questions:
1. Tell us about yourself.
2. Are you okay with the possibility of shooting down a civilian airliner?
3. Why should we choose you over all the other qualified applicants?
4. Convince me you wont wash out of UPT?
5. Have you ever been in a fight?
6. How will you interact with the enlisted personnel on base? (Asked by enlisted member)
7. What if you’re in UPT and failing, what would you do?
8. What is something you struggle with while flying?
9. What’s more important, being an officer or a pilot?
10. Do you have any questions or closing remarks?
Biggest piece of advice I can give is to actually answer the question and relate your answer back to how you’ll succeed at UPT, flying, etc. At one of my interviews, I was so focused on deliberating that I never gave a straight answer to the question asked. Also, be yourself, be honest, and be confident even if you get pushback on some of your answers.
Best of luck to everyone!
