  • Interview was very similar to what was described. Everyone very nice and welcoming. A Kalitta shuttle picks you up at ~745 am from the Holiday Inn Express. You say a quick 'hi' to the HR room, before they bring you to an upstairs classroom which is basically the holding tank while you wait for the various parts of the interview to take place. This room was very well catered....muffins, croissants, Danishes, fruits, drinks. There were a couple HR folks who were with us the entire day, plus various Kalitta training / management people would pop in periodically to say hi and mingle. There was also a very nice catered lunch from a local sub shop that was delivered at noon. The...

    It was a great low stress experience. I applied end of July beginning of August and was sent an email, first of September, asking to schedule an interview and to take 90 assessment.

They asked about the schedule and the point of me having no turbine PIC time. End the end, I’m grateful, I was offered the job. The...

    I was asked if I thought the schedule was ok, going to the middle east and getting a Yellow fever vaccine. Answered yes, yes and yes. The assessment test was never brought up. I didn't do very well on the geometry questions and was worried it might affect my chances. Overall it was a brief experience. I haven't been assigned equipment yet but everything points to being on the 74. Study the questions on this site and carefully consider whether or not the type of flying works for you. I told...
