    Surpsrisingly easy, seemed like they needed people. The Chief of operations saw my resume as a CFI CFII and called me up a few days later. After a brief chat, very informal, almost no technical questions at all, I was given a job offer the next...

    HR interview was very easy going and more of a personality check. It lasted about an hour on the phone. Typical HR questions about managers in the past.   Next was a zoom interview with a few people in management. This was also a personality check with some simple IFR or commercial questions. Next was in person interview and flight check in the plane, very easy and not a checkride. More IFR questions, 135 regs and some sectional chart...

    West Air, Inc - Fresno, CA (FedEx Feeder)  The interview process is a 3 part process that takes about 1.5 to 2 hours: Interview, 25 question written test, and sim ride. It takes place at their Fresno office located at KFAT. You will be emailed ahead with a list of items to bring such as your logbook(s), certificates, driver's license, etc... and what to expect.
