BTW, a friend of mine on the first page of the DAL seniority list, was never hired by a mainline, over the years he was acquired to that position.
So what though?
Seriously, so what?
So that is supposed to prove that all interviews are stupid and employers should just take employees on general principle?
The much aligned DL interview actually has a fairly high pass rate in general, and a very, very high pass rate among those who actually prepare. A couple weeks of hard work and study, one time, for a job of this magnitude isn't too much to ask.
Showing up with a bag full of shirt pocket "logbooks" or cracking under 2 minutes of slight scenario pressure or just unprepared in general for a huge one/two day interview with millions at stake that you knew about in advance is unthinkable.
