Question Interview Prep - Atlas?

Anyone have experience with and/or feedback for a company doing specific Atlas Air Cargo interview prep?

Other than specific Atlas info, what other interview prep service would you recommend?

I interviewed there a few years ago. I went into the interview very cold, less than 36 hours from phone call to interview. We did paperwork for a couple of hours, bring your logbooks. Then it was an HR interview with a chief pilot, an hr rep, and a manager. Talk to the person asking the question.

Then there was a sim in a classic 74. This was the truly nice part of the interview. Simple take off and a simple sid. Enter holding, check airman configures the jet for landing, shoot an ILS, and land. Keep the power on until 50 feet, then go to idle and flare a little.

That was how it was in '05. Hope it helps.

It looks like the window is open for resumes. Judy Tarver at fltops.com and Adam Hughes are good for prep.
