When I came here last winter, HR called me to offer me the interview. Then sent me an email to confirm the date. I flew up to BOS and stayed at the Embassy Suites. Cape Air reimbursed me $200 for the trip. The interview was in one of the conference rooms at the Embassy Suites. There were 7 of us interviewing that day. Most got hired, but quit during training. They called me a week after the interview and offered me a class date. Paperwork... and here I am...

I don't want to be a debbie downer, but the FO life is not the best...

You'll find it easier to commute from the hubs. (BIL, BOS, STL)

Probably not. I lot of the fo's worked 5 on/2 off some weeks. Also, fo pay probably won't afford you to have a crash pad and an apartment.

Good luck. They will probably answer most of your questions in the presentation before the interview. Remember, you can always say no if it isn't a good fit for you.
