Getting an interview as an AA WO pilot is absolutely not common.
Not talking about flow, that is not what the "metering" term is used to describe. I'm talking about the frequent complaints from Skywest and Republic pilots. Yet our new hire classes are full of them. Op did not state where he worked.
