You are trying to get a job that will pay you millions of dollars. I know it seems like a lot right now, but if it is the difference of getting a TBNT and getting the job (which it likely would have been in my case), it is a small price to pay.
Invest in yourself!
I don't disagree. However....
I didn't have anyone review my SWA app. I signed up for interview prep but wasn't able to schedule any prep before doing the HR portion of the SWA interview. Did no LOI prep because the LOI was replaced by the SBQ for my interview group. In retrospect, the logbook review and SBQ required no specific prep. I already know how to wear a well-fitting suit.
My interview prep that occurred after my SWA interview has been helpful for sure, however I was successful at a SWA interview without it.
As always, your mileage may vary....
