Spirit may not be only Airline where this could happen but it clearly wouldn’t happen at most places. In Short, if they treat you like this as a prospectus (when you could be looking at other employers), imagine what it’ll be like working there. Is this a job you would really want?

Another carrier recently hired a man convicted of felony who made it past basic indoc ………just think of what else these companies aren’t checking? Is that really a place where you want to work?

I admire your decision to go to the interview, it’ll be good practice for an interview for your intended destination. Suit, nerves, and how you interact with other interviewees is a big part of what HR uses to make their final judgment at the big 3. It does appear that in your case your outcome is fait accompli, so unfortunately there will be no way to know how well your practice run went. They may offer you some unusual conditional, which you could exercise in 2 years but honestly Spirit may not exist in 2 years and you may be a much more attractive candidate by then with better offers. Just my .05 🇮🇳 rupees.
I agree with this. Also, spirit interview wasn't as professional as I thought it would be. The HR and pilot did not seem at all interested in me, and I got bad looks once I mentioned some checkride fails. It wasn't the best experience at all and I am glad I am at another airline that actually seemed interested in me (United) . Why invite for an interview if you will just get dirty looks and a TBNT? Not cool.
