Yet, for some of their other interview locations, they would PS folks out. I knew by the time I landed that the interview was for practice only, expensive practice, but still cheaper than Air Inc. If that is what they think of their potential employees, forget it.
Hey Dude....thats not us man...thats MGT....they only just started positive spacing people cuz the loads are lighter in the fall/winter and our attrition rate went up. When i interviewed...I had to fly standby from ATL-CLT the CLT to MKE....rent a car....drive 1.5 hours up to ATW....spend 60 bucks on sim prep, 30 bucks for a hotel (Awac Discount) then interview.
Im sorry you only saw the interview as practice. For those of us who are here....I can speak for the majority when I say that id rather complain here...then anywhere else. Despite our problems...its a damn good company to work for. Id be very suprised if you found any more than 3 U.S. airlines that seriously "Cared" about its pilot group
