Believeing they do this is beyond paranoid.

As far as Eagle placing undercover HR people in an interview group I will only say I'd have to hear that straight from the horses mouth to believe it. They just don't need to go through such efforts as the "tools" always shine in the interview itself or early on in training. Something like that is a lot of effort for very little payoff. I've been to 6 airline interviews in my antique career and I've never seen anyone blatantly misbehave while waiting. There, of course have been a few "out of place" comments but typicaly pilots conduct themselves pretty maturely while in the waiting area.
