1. Has the process changed any from the gouge Jughead gave earlier?

2. How many do they usually hire from the group interviewing?

3. How long is the wait for a thumbs up or thumbs down?

Thanks and I'm really excited about the chance to interview!
I went through yesterday.

Process hasn't changed. Don't get locked up on specific questions, they change them, as you would expect. But ours weren't too cosmic or in the weeds. Basic general knowledge in my panel, and I know I botched at least one, but I'm not a bs'r, I know or I don't.

They didn't give any stats on percentages. I believe its not as high as some airlines per interview group, but it looks like they are selecting with an emphasis on protecting the corporate culture with pilots who "fit" as opposed to other metrics some carriers focus on. Which I appreciate, that's the biggest reason I want to be there in the first place. I wouldn't get too wrapped up on stats, you got the invite, they want to meet you. Go in, lay it on the line, and do your best.

They indicated we would hear from them in a few days with a yes or no. I don't know if that applies to each interview group though. They'll tell you what to expect at the end of day gathering, if I recall.

It was my only Airline interview experience and it was a very positive one. If I don't make the cut I'm still glad I got to go and meet them, really restored some faith after the last decade we've all trudged through.

I'd say just be yourself and let them get to know you. Best of Luck!
