There is also speculation that DAL is purposely not passing people through the interview due to operational needs at Endeavor.
Of course the success rate is going to be lower, there's zero screening prior to the interview. SSP guys with huge black marks that would disqualify anybody else still get interviewed. If you picked any other regional pilot group and forced Delta to interview all of them no matter what I'm sure you'd see similar results.
