Contactapproach,
I think you've got the wrong idea. I was also contacted for an interview and I had to turn it down due to a scheduling issue that I simply could not get out of.
Don't be so negative, there are valid reasons why people turn down the interview, but still want the job.
Btw, I replied in my email that I am still interested, I simply couldn't make it on the dates that Hawaiian wanted me there for the Phase I & II. Hopefully I'll receive an email in the future inviting me once again to interview.

I know a guy who shops around with interviews just for practice and to "see what they have to offer"! If you dont want to work at a place, dont apply and take an interview slot away from someone who really wants to work there!

No Kidding. Unless my wife was spitting out a child... I can't think of a good reason to bypass an interview/potential seniority at Hawaiian. Ain't nothing a good sinus infection flare up(cough,cough) won't fix! But I haven't even been invited to a phase 1. I've got some sick time built up just in case, and wife ain't pregnant

Maybe I'm wrong, but I've always thought absolutely. I'd do whatever I could to make an interview. I doubt they call employers to ask about the specific date you went to the interview...

Nope, but they could ask you directly whether you called out sick to make the interview. Then you have to either A: lie and risk getting caught or B: tell the truth and risk that looking very bad during an interview.

True, however as of recently, that was not an interview question...

Let me put it another way, when you've got ties to the company, the employees, and the islands there's a VERY good chance that you'd be caught lying.
It was worth waiting for a more appropriate interview date than to blow the chance by making a bad decision and then A) lying about it OR B) telling the truth and look less than favorable in the interview.

Called in sick for my interview...Not even questioned. Not even remotely close to the types of questions they asked....Go ahead, don't call in sick...Someone who wants the job more than you will. LOL
