What is the interview process like?

Asked

No real interview, they take your information and fingerprints. File your customs and give you a date for your drug urine test at building 14 port authority med. office. Get your Id (with/without customs, can be added at another date) and start working for building 84 (for training).
After 3 months/probation period (5-8am or 8-11pm), you can choose to go to terminal. Shifts are hard to get unless you like afternoon-early/night or overnight shifts. Lax and can be repetitive job, if you make it so. Managment is funny if they don’t like you. Easy for management to find any reason to fire you. Minimum wage. Get to choose between baggage/ramp (immediate-short placement)/cabin cleaner agent (longest wait list to terminal). Overtime always availabe at the terminal.
