Guy/gal has "All the right stuff", interview/eval show them to be the exact personality that they want to avoid, subterfuge and misdirection to let the candidate "die on the vine". Just because someone has all the boxes checked, doesn't mean that is all that counts, companies are looking beyond basic qualifications and using different methods to redefine their choices. Simply, "we don't want to hire any more booger eaters"......

Knowing some of these guys…many of them warriors who have done some stuff that we trained for in the 80s and 90s and never had to do…I can assure you at least some of these guys are far, far from booger eaters. Cold hard killing machines? Maybe. That's why I ****ing like them. But they ain't weak pilots, and they aren't weak people, and if Delta passes on them it will be the company's loss.
