True, now they do a pee test and i think a real basic vision/hearing test. In and out 30 mins or less!

Man they have changed...... Used to take all morning... Bet it cost them MAJOR money for each applicant. I think they were even doing bloodwork on ground, ramp and office personnel.

Are they even doing a vision test anymore? I heard it was just a pee test and a hearing test...

Any recent new hires care to disclose?

Almost on the ramp personnel, they waited until the first injury before drawing blood.
