I know there are a couple of other threads on First Air but there was very little information about the interview process.
I am wondering if anyone knows what specific questions they ask in the interview?
Does anyone know what questions are on the exam?
Any information is greatly appreciated.

Re: First Air Interview
I would also like to know. I tried looking up first air using the search function but couldn't find anything. Have all their threads been purged?
Like Johnny I'd like to know more about the exam and sim eval? Are the questions on the exam similar to the atpl? Are they IFR procedures? Weather? Regs? All of the above?
As for the sim, is there any way to prepare for that?
Thanks everyone, and good luck on your interview JD.
