The interview was very relaxed and friendly. We were picked up by Erin, Sean and Joe. They also performed the interviews and answered all of our questions. What a great group and a great mission. I accepted another job offer with another company before hearing back from Erin but I was very impressed with Omni and their facility in Dallas. Interview started with a brief introduction of the company, their goals, history and how you could play a role in it. We all asked questions about schedules, reserve, benefits, upgrades, etc. The interview panel was Erin and Sean with no gotchas no difficult technical questions. Asked about your resume and previous jobs. Next came the SIM eval. (view the sim/scenario section of this website). I can say they were all great folks and I've heard nothing but great things about working at Omni. I think as usual if you are invited to interview its your job to loose. Be yourself, remember they want to hire you but only if they feel like they can get along with you in a cockpit for hours upon hours and 16 to 18 days out on the road.

Simulator check in company B767 full motion device. Entire profile hand flown; you choose your seat. Company LCA seat filler loads the FMC and assists with speeds, gear, flaps, etc. VFR takeoff and climb out of KLAX using raw data and autothrottle off. Basic flying evaluation including level-offs, turns, and track to VOR using RMI. Several basic aviation “math problems” asked throughout, including about planned holding pattern entry at the VOR. WX reduced for vectors to ILS using flight director in IMC. Break out of WX above mins for normal landing. Repo to departure runway for VFR V1 cut. Very straight forward; no curveballs.
Just curious....where where is the company full motion device located?

If I am not mistaken I recall someone mentioning this outfit in DFW.

All three are in Dallas. I've seen some of your guys there recently (last month). I'll watch again this month.

Is this training faculty at Avenger? And does Avenger lease sim time from Omni to rent out. I read ATSG signed an agreement with Avenger to lease sim time for its "affiliated" carriers on 757,767,777.

Pretty much. They originally were just going to open our own exclusive center, post ATSG buying Omni that morphed into an Omni partnership with Avenger. It’s only the Avenger 2 building. We did keep the other half of the building which is exclusively Omni. It’s the offices, classrooms, security training room, cabin and door trainers, rafts and slides and fixed base trainers. Yes, Avenger rents out whatever we don’t block. It’s a very nice facility. Having used the facilities at Delta, United and American I like ours best. AA’s fire pit is better though.

Interesting....odd that ATSG would be leasing time from Avenger for Omni's 777's (since Omni is the only ATSG affiliate that flys 777's ) that Avenger has leased from Omni. Go figure.

Default Realistic first year pay

Anyone have an idea of what to expect for first year pay? Seems like the benefits are a little spendy? Thanks in advance for the info!

I think this info is on the airline profile.

I think it's always prudent to just assume you will make the advertised guarantee pay for the first year. And for fiscal planning, best to tailor spending for the same for later years as well.
