Hoping2, I am in the same boat-retire 1 Jun, terminal leave in 13 days (and a wakeup). What I did, that has been working so far, was I was a regular at the Fltops.com job fairs from Aug until Nov-seemed to be very helpful to stand tall in front of the recruiters, instead of just sending a resume and hoping-at 2 of my interviews, the recruiter I met at the job fair was involved with the interview...I also have been working with an interview consultant (Cage consulting for me, highly recommend, but there are others)--I have been studying my butt off going through the ASA ATP prep, and "Everything explained for the professional pilot" as well as the UPT drilll of sitting down with a chart and learning what everything is on it, but it's Jepps this time--just different enough to need a cupla hours of work to decipher. I have had four interviews-1 fail (my first), 1 success, and awaiting results from 2 others. I also turned an interview off that I had scheduled, since I was already successful at one of my top choices. Like others here have said, go do the interview, no matter what the status of the company is just to get into the groove of what interviewing is like--It got easier each time, and you can make sure everything is good to go (proper clothes, tie, TMAAT stories, etc...). PM me if you need any help.
