i once applied for Handlex....and got an interviewed for a PT ground handlers, the HR and group interview is very lax...main concern for them is Safety without compromise and Teamwork. Just FYI, you'll be subject to extreme weather conditions...somedays its wet as fuck, and the rain blows balls...when you're in it for 4hrs...Its a hate it / love it job...
handlex / Air Transat is hiring permanent PT positions (minimum 20hrs/week)...shoot me a PM if you need contacts. Handlex does the main 25 airlines.

Pay scale is very low just to let you know ~10.20...but they do send you to school to get your AOC etc...

I had an interview with Air Canada before (like 8 years ago?) and the process is very fun! They test your driving skills by making you drive those huge airplane de-icing trucks.

Basically you have to drive/brake smoothly without spilling the chemical, reverse park the truck without hitting the cones.

I didn't get the job though because at the time I couldn't do their 2 week full time training.

I think it was $8/hr, shitty pay and it's outside. haha
