Wished it worked that way. Lol. Been trying to get back since I got laid off from my job in Tech Ops back in Sept 2025, and still haven’t had any luck.

Anyone know if this will be it for classes for a while?

Hi everyone,

I just received an invitation for an in-person interview!
I was informed that the initial assessment is based on the ADX?
For anyone who has gone through this process recently, how similar is United's written exam to the actual FAA ADX knowledge test we took for our dispatch certificate?

Are there specific areas (like weather charts or regulations) I should focus on?

Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

In general or the written test? If the Written test is based on what you said that is awesome. I’m just hoping it is not like the ADX we did for the certification.

Mostly like it. 55 multiple choice questions. You have an hour and 15 minutes to complete and only need to get 39 questions right. There's a few questions at the end about a few approach plates and high enroute charts that they provide for you
