I am 0% experienced all things commuting and civilian flying, my experience is exclusively military and this lifestyle & these discussions are all new for me.
If you live in the panhandle unless you’re planning to drive the 6 hours TPA will be a nightmare for you, 1 flight a day on Silver if you’re lucky. MIA 74/77 or IAH 76/74 are your best options.

May I ask how on-boarding can go south?

Look at the guidelines for each interview. They will give you what you need to know. As I recall, the HR/Tech interview specified "Business Attire" - which includes coat and tie. Unless told otherwise, you can't go wrong with that. My Tech interviewer wore shirt and tie while the HR interviewers were more casual.

Not sure how "onboarding" can go South - unless you make it go that way. Yeah, it was a LOT of redundant and seemingly superfluous forms and submittals. But everyone, to a person, was awesome and bent over backwards to help.

I'd also like to know. What are the traps? How do people lose the job from here?

Shirt, tie, slacks, suit, whatever you prefer, but that gets you to the right mindset.
I'm going to call myself out on this nonsense, I read that post wrong, definitely not biz casual. Business attire aka. shirt and a tie as minimum.

Sometimes, before even stepping on property due to poor communication with a company due in part to no fault of the NH..

Can be a simple as requiring 3 weeks from CJO to class date as specified in the interviews to only being offered classes 2 weeks to start.
I'm sure there are other ones..

During your interview candidates are asked specifically for their date of availability, unless they respond “ASAP” they will not be offered classes in 2 weeks. The stated availability is most likely honored.
