I'm going for a CFI Job at Aerosim, Advice?
A week after submitting my resume to Aerosim, they've called me up and scheduled a phone interview! I am extremely excited and really look forward to working with such a great company!
Has anybody gone through the phone interview in the past, and can you send out any advice? I asked if there was anything specific I should know or be prepared for, and they told me no. But I also don't want to be thrown any curveballs! Anybody have any kind of gouge of sorts?

If Aerosim is the former Delta Connection Academy, former Comair Aviation Academy, based in Sanford, FL...well, I used to work there back in 2000-2001.
I was based at the CRG (Jacksonville, FL) location. CRG is much more like a country-club than the Grand Central Station atmosphere in Sanford. Highly recommend working in CRG under Tomas Gyuris (Chief CFI up there).
Their program is okay (part 141). I did a lot of my certificates at FlightSafety Academy in Vero Beach, back in the 90's. To compare the two is like comparing a Part 61 operation vs a Part 121 operation.
Fast forward almost two decades later, I have no up to date information.
But overall, I enjoyed CFI-ing in KCRG. The students there are all Jacksonville University students. They either flew M-W-F, or T-Th-Sa schedules.

All foreigners there. Mostly Chinese because its all contract work with own in-house DPE's. Plenty of equipment: PA-44's, C172 (six packs), SR-20's.
I was a student there, and yes I am domestic. I saw both sides of the glass door. I do not work there, nor I ever entertained it when they guaranteed me a job when I did my CFI. Instead I instruct at a school VERY close by with better pay. Good Luck. Safety First.
