Thanks for posting. You got the invite with no 737 type. That's interesting. I thougt they were only considering those With the type for this round of hiring.

From another forum I saw the number 5,500. I have no real clue as to the accuracy of that number, but I would not be surprised to find out it was at least 5,500 or even higher.

Wyndham near the airport is good. Be aware that many of the interviewers will be staying there as well...conduct yourself accordingly.

Absolutely.... and thanks for the advice. No worries here though, the last thing I am going there for is to drink and carry on (there is a time and a place for everything :) -- and it will be the day after my interview, and not on the flight home either). I feel that the interview started when I filled out the initial profile, I consider every contact with them from this point on, being judged as a part of the process.

Good outlook! During lunch at the company cafeteria on the day of my interview I was sitting and chatting with a gentleman that later turned out to be my interviewer during the afternoon portion of the day. Obviously everything I said to him during that lunch was a portion of the interview. I remember hearing some applicants saying some unflattering things about their current employers. I remember thinking to myself watch out, the walls have ears. Treat EVERYONE that you encounter as a potential interviewer.
