I have a first round interview with United Airlines Friday for their FP&A dept. Any tips/topics to specifically prepare for? Only had a manager reach out to me via email to schedule the interview; no HR or discussion regarding what the 45 minute interview will be centered around. Any and all insight is appreciated!

I spent about ~4.5 years at UA before exiting to consulting (currently in B4). Would be prepared for general questions and to talk more about the role/team. They’re big on culture there, so would ask questions about that. Be prepared for lower salary range, as they look at flight benefits as being part of compensation (I believe they estimate worth to be about ~27K, from what I remember).
