By the time (in your life) you're old enough to be interviewing at Delta, you should have a fairly good sense of who you are, and you should be fairly comfortable with yourself. That implies some understanding of your strengths and weaknesses. I think that, if you're truthful enough, and able to reflect on your weaknesses, or your hardships, and create something positive out of them, you're fine.

Then again, we don't always think about our childhood, our relationships, or a lot of the pieces of the puzzle that make up who we are. So I don't think it's a bad idea to sit down with a really good friend, and have a little practice. I'm not talking about gaming the system to look for right answers: I'm talking about making sure you think about yourself enough that you can explain who you are. I don't think it's a great idea to sound rehearsed, but I don't think it's a great idea to start thinking about some traumatic event event in your past, for the first time, in front of the shrink.

All this talk about the shrink has me confused. I sat down in the guy's office, noticed the running stuff on his walls, and led with a reminiscence about running cross-country in college.

We BSed about running for twenty minutes, and I was outta there.

"...and we're still pen-pals to this day. Occasionally, we go for a nice early morning run together...";)

Better than SERE? I thought they were SERE. Name Rank and Social is all I gave them, and they had to beat Rank out of me.

I told the shrink that my favorite color is clear and that I got to take the big bus to school today!!! On the way out I asked if anyone had seen my helmet.

I remember the shrink being some what taken aback when I confessed to her I had learned over the years that my wife usually doesn't want me to voluntarily offer my opinion on how to solve each and everyone of her problems, but instead is usually more pleased if I just listen as a friend to what is troubling her. The pause I received after that had me wondering if I had screwed up. Didn't get flagged, so I guess it was a good pause.
