A company called Fly Around Alaska (formerly Artics Air Academy) is in good standing with Hageland. They guarantee a interview with Hageland for their commercial/instrument students that want one and are working on a guaranteed spot with Hageland upon receiving these ratings.
They operate a Cherokee Six for mountain tours of Denali and are growing rapidly, which means 135 and instructor pilots are needed. They offer their instructors and 135 pilots a position with Hageland if they prove themselves with Fly Around Alaska.
Might be something to look into if you need a job in the mean time.

Hope this helps
