My personal experience is I walked a resume in to their lead pilot while deployed with the AF. I had an interview there, and he passed on my info to the chief pilot. I was called for a phone interview about 6 months later (I wasn't available until then) and after that I was hired. No test, no sims, just basic questions about willingness to live in crappy locations and what you know about their mission.
