The surgery two years ago caused a lot of pain when I decided to get back into aviation. It took several months and coordination to get the FAA to clear my medical, so I am assuming I'll have to go through that again. I have a feeling if I let Horizon know that they will want me to get the rating complete, have the surgery, get my medical cleared and then proceed with them? Or would they offer an CJO based on all the above if I were to interview before the surgery and completion of ME?
They will want you to finish your ME and get your medical cleared first before they fly you up to SEA and spend all day interviewing you and putting you up in a hotel for potentially 2 nights.

It also cant hurt to ask them directly, they're very friendly.
