Thanks guys. Good points. Still scratching my head on why I blew the last interview..will probably never know though.
I feel as though HR has become quite an obstacle for both the candidate and the employed these days. I've wondered in the past just what does the color of your tie or possible improper placement of the hands while seated during an interview have to do with flying an IAP down to mins in ice with an engine out. How can they know the dynamics of good CRM? How can they judge someone's people skills on the road? They sit in an office and go by a "template" all day. It would be different if more HR personnel consisted of "been there" pilots. The HR vote on a prospect carries a lot more clout than it should get IMHO.
