Website says AA interviews limited to first 200.
Word to wise - if anyone's dress code says 'business casual' it means old fashioned, and not new wave, business casual. Five day beard, that looks cool at Google HDQ, or flip flops, or baggy/saggy 'pull your pants up' look might not be your best plan(true story).
Good luck.

(old school callout) Seriously, though, we get a "Wands Up" and it's acknowledged by both pilots. It's a "trigger" for the After Start Flow.

But yeah, we've simplified the Bus. I've seen other carriers and they're talking constantly, calling out every single flight mode change.
