Actually, the interview is just like any other job interview at most companies. You don't pass the interview (and I'm talking upper management) you aren't getting a second chance. If you prepared and don't get through then you weren't what Delta was looking for and if you had a "bad day" then you just weren't ready. You just couldn't afford to have a bad day and I don't think most of the guys that got through it are sorry we had (and may still have) a no reapply policy for the interview portion. Especially since everything else you did was to get to interview. I loved the fact that after the interview you left knowing you had a job offer.
