I applied in-person. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Flying Tigers Flight School in Apr 2024
Interview
Very relaxed setting. Was really only looking for qualifications, CFI/CFII. Wanted to see how's your availability and did a checkout flight with a Chief or assistant chief flight instructor. No presentation on a lesson was required on the ground but wanted to see proper aircraft handling and manuevering.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is your availability and are you willing to work on the weekends?
