This is my list, in order:
1. Piedmont
2. Endeavor
3. Envoy
4. PSA

Now, on to my real questions. I submitted my app last night and received responses from all four airlines before lunch today. Piedmont called and just ran through a few, very basic questions before sending me the interview offer via e-mail. They're the airline I'm most interested in. In fact, they're the only ones I want to fly for right now.

I have my interview set for Tues of next week. Bought a couple of suits and shoes. I'll have all of my paperwork in order by the end of the day tomorrow. I'm reordering the ATP ShepardAir test prep for the 25-question test. I had previously passed with a 93, but it expired. Oh well. I meet all of the requirements for the unrestricted ATP. I have 600 hours of SEL turbine PIC with about 40 of that being MEL turbine PIC. I have read the gouge and all questions. No big issues there. Never got any CFI tickets. No big red flags, just a couple of failures early on (PP oral and flight). All of my prior experience in 91.

I can add more but I really just want to get to the point (as I'm sure some of you reading this do, as well). I'm really nervous about passing my first airline interview for the company I'm most interested in. What are the biggest "do's" and "dont's" as far as this initial interview in concerned? Things I should really, really avoid that aren't general. I'm hoping to minimize any mistakes and am trying to relax but I'm hoping my previous experience (PC-12 PIC & BE90) shines through anything I might goof up on.

I don't want to be the idiot that forgets the answers to the most basic questions.

Edit: I'm not comfortable with checkrides or interviews if I don't know 100% of everything about everything. I'm just trying to organize what's most important for this initial interview before I go in.
