I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at TACA (San Salvador) in Nov 2010
Interview
After a couple of talks with the candidate, the company will ask for a polygraph test. This test is a safety requirement for the airline and therefore includes questions about drug consumption, personal ethic and groups affiliations. The test is administrated by a third party.
The next stage includes a couple of interviews and possibly a business case.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you have an affiliation with a terrorist group?
