I interviewed last Wednesday. I had 12 days to prepare. A guy in my group got the hogan the Thursday before, took it right away, and got the invite Friday afternoon. 4 days...

Does Cage also rate highly for app reviews? Thanks.

I’m not sure about Cage for app review but I used checkedandset.net for my app review. It’s a previous UAL hiring manager. I didn’t have any glaring issues but he helped me to formulate things like job descriptions and such to attempt to get he attention of the algorithms. Well worth it. Got the interview in 2015 shortly after the app review.

I had close to 30 days and I still felt "rushed" granted I took every part of my process deadly serious and according to my wife overly stressed about it. I'm sure I would have been okay without some of my prep, however I walked away from my interview feeling like I slam dunked it (I got the job at least), and while I was still nervious for that following week to hear the results I much rather over prepair for somthing like this than leave it up to chance.

I cant believe how many people after I got hired contacted me about app reviews / interview prep and showed hesitancy to spend a few hundred bucks on something that could be the difference between making a dream job.

The way I try to frame it for people is that if your interview prep / app review service gets you hired just one week earlier (it very well could be much longer) than it is money well spent. Additionally the skills gained can be applied to any interview beyond airlines.

Me too!

Just from what I hear from our new pilots Cage seems to get the nod for UAL prep, but Emerald also gets good reviews.
