If your statements above reflect your initial point, then I got it the first time. And I still completely disagree with you.

If a mil guy comes on APC with an airline interview scheduled next month, I'm going to assume he's already been prepping. He's studying Jepps, Metars, FARs and all the other unfamiliar civilian stuff. He's got a suit, doing interview prep, getting his TMAAT stories in order and all the other queep. If he wants to know about commuting, who am I to question his priorities, since I have no idea of his prep status?

Try this:
If you got an offer to interview at company X and before you went, you determined the logistics of getting to work when required was so onerous that your QOL would be in the toilet - Would you still go to the interview?

If I were interviewing a candidate here at FedEx, I think it's possible that I might inquire if said candidate would move to domicile or commute. Of some of the answers available, "I don't know", "I haven't thought about it" or "There isn't any point in thinking about that until you hire me" wouldn't impress.

Being able to speak in an informed manner about commuting at a specific company is no different than any other subject concerning that airline. Should candidates avoid seeking knowledge of pay rates or schedules at a potential employer until CJO? How about corporate financials, fleet plans, aircraft purchases, domiciles or retirements. None of those things will effect them in the least until they are actually on the property. However, those (as well as commuting options) are just a few of the important aspects of an informed decision to pursue employment with any airline, IMO.
