CFI Interview at FSA

LA8 AV8R

New Member
I have been researching jobs in Florida. I have narrowed the list down to a few. I will be interviewing at FSA in several weeks.
I was looking for an interview gouge with FSA. HR said, to expect a written test-normal areas; Sim flight in the Frasca-Seminole, instrument proficiency; something about work with cadets-Comm. maneuvers (objectives and procedures?); drug test; then interview with Center Manager. HR said to plan on it taking all day.
Are there any favorite approaches for the area? Or, manuevers they seem to stress?
The interview sounds a lot like an airline interview. Or, am I just being paranoid. I am comfortable with my skills and knowledge. But, this is way more in depth than any of the other interviews I am arranging.
Thanks for any insight.
 
I went through part of it as a graduate.

Week one involved a day of three interview with different people.
A week later, one day was devoted to teaching a manouver to the chief instructor, head of training, and centre manager. A week afterward was supposed to be a session in the seminole sim with the chief instructor. It all seemed a bit drawn out.

I had a job at another school by the end of the first week, and skipped the rest, but I found the interviews very interesting, as a chance to talk to some very experienced teachers. They need instructors more than you need to work there, so keep that persepctive in mind, it's a great interview attitude, as it takes away from the nerves.
 
Look over the VOR 11R approach at VRB, as well as the ILS 9 at FPR.

Those are favored for sim ride.

If you want any info pretaining to the interview process feel free to PM me!

I went through the entire process about 8 months ago.
