Absolutely...well said.

The best candidate (and others) are being "watched" at every stage of the game...as long as you remember that, the best candidates will get the nod.

Period.

If not, the others that might have a flaw or two, might make the right impression have a real chance at the swimming pool. The idea is for them to get to know you, the real you, AND for you to get to know the company and its operations, lifestyle, etc.

It is a two-way street...don't ever forget that. This flying is NOT for everyone. Those that are interviewing from the Regional, and Corporate, domestic backgrounds must understand that the flying we do is not the same as what you are doing now.

Good luck.
