Ae interview attire

Does Eagle tell you to dress a certain way on the second day? What is the general attire on both days? Mostly suits?

Seems a bit excessive if you ask me.

yeah, day 1 is testing, hr, tech and sims. if you make it through all that you come back on day 2 for cog test and medical (cog may have been taken out in the last few months). then they tell you to go home a wait for a week or more for the CA board to review your interview and then you get a call if they think youre worthy of their 8 year upgrade.

, unless you committed a felony or failed a 121 check ride and tried to hide it from them.

2nd day attire is business casual. No written test or cog. Yea the upgrade is long right now, but look at it this way, 700+ captains submitted thier retirement papers, and we are now coming up on the hiring gap for 4 years senoirity numbers, expect a dramatic drop in upgrade times. Cheers!!

What do you mean by this? Are you referring to AA. I think they only got 170. And since AA has had the foresight of a goldfish with regards to pilot staffing levels, I don't see this making a huge increase in recall class sizes. I think AA will just cancel more flights.

if i hear one more mention of the "power tie" im going to go postal.......
"hey man, nice tie you got there....now why is your suit wrinkled, not tailored properly and your shoes are scuffed and dull?" interview attire is 5 part puzzle...the tie is only step 1
