They can even on rare occasion know the exact employee of a company that did your prep. With the number of interviews they do it is not hard to pick up. SWA years ago for a short time was not hiring anyone that used ECIC. No explanation was given as to why, but it was short lived.
Best advise I was ever given when preparing for an interview was... Don't lie!
I'm curious why they care? From what I have seen, a vast majority of folks who interview (at any airline) have prepped. So isn't it assumed that you have? I'd agree though - no need to lie! So why stress on admitting to it if asked?
