Went out for the interview about a year ago. This is how it went I had to find my own way out to LAS from CVG that was not cool. The dispatch office is about 45 min away from the Dispatch office so I had to rent a car. Then I had to rent a room for the night because I coudl not get home. If you live in LAS it is fine if not then it is not. I want to say at the time they were starting at 30,000 I think dispatch office was really small. Know your Jepp plates cause they quizzed me on that
 
Is casey H still the Director there?? The interview mentioned above is fairly accurate, I too interviewed there a few years ago, But the $32K pay was a problem there.. itis expensive to live there now.. but the company seemed very good..
 
I believe an old Director of Flight Control of mine just went to work there. The real job and the real money is 120 miles north on I-15, and I'm already here.
 
Interview call

Just got a call from Pauline in HR for a phone interview.I had to turn it down because she said they pay 32k-35k.Living in LAS 32k won't go to far.
