Getting more interview practice is almost always a good idea, even if you have no interest in working there. Especially if you are local and won't incur any costs. Prepare like you really want the job, ace the interview, and build your confidence for the future interviews you really want.

No pay during training? 750 total time? What is going to happen if said applicant doesn't have 1500hrs when that new rule kicks in? I think are in a great position to do what a lot of fellow Pilot's would love to do. Go to the interview and then tell them you will be declining their offer due to no pay during training and a non-liveable wage.

With all the cr@p i read about this place, how is it possible that they are still in business. Who in their right mind would purposely move to one of these out station bases making peanuts, i don't get it.

My plan is to take the interview since I'm local here in Denver. I've been out of professional flying for a few years and I will take this interview very seriously since I consider myself to be a professional. I will also ask the normal questions an interviewee asks during the interview. Questions regarding the future plans of the company, domiciles for new hires, training and general QOL to be expected, etc. etc. Based on the answers I receive and the perceptions I get, if offered the job, I will certainly consider it at that point.
