As far as them intentionally denying people, I do not believe that in the slightest. They want EDV to be a supplier of pilots to mainline and the movement and opportunity to attract pilots to EDV.
So I guess the question becomes do the interviewers know they're interviewing an ssp/dgi guy? You say "you are being compared to people who score much higher on their application" which to me implies at best you have a mountain to climb to score the job at worst.. well you know. If you would not have scored the interview on your resume alone, will they still hire you?
