Spend the money and do both ...Emerald and Cage. If you get hired, well worth it. If you don’t get hired, at least you have the solace that you prepped adequately. Money well spent. JMHO.

Good luck. I would also suggest putting in an app for lesser tier and go to their interview first. Good prep and gets those butterflies under control if you haven’t done much interviewing over your career ie military.

Cheers, Buck

I actually think this is good advice - however - with a May/June interview on the horizon for the OP then I would probably just do Cage. The online material from ECIC is good for prep for the folks that have 6+ months to listen and digest all the material and then schedule seminars and the 1v1.

Thanks for all the replies everyone. I'm leaning towards Cage Marshall or Lori Clarke.

ECAC was beneficial in that it made me do the prep work. It encouraged me to think about various scenarios and situations I’ve had and how I could frame them as failures and how I grew from them. So with a playbook of scenarios for different environments I was ready talk with them vs having a canned answer. I felt more authentic and less rehearsed. Yet, still felt prepared. No experience with Cage, but have heard good things too. Good luck to all

I have done Cage and ECIC for two different airlines and I disagree with doing them both for one target airline. I did them years apart and they have slightly different approaches to certain situations. ECIC does webinars that are fantastic. Your first will be rough but the second will feel right. Hiring two of these companies is unnecessary and may actually do more harm then good. A good interview prep polishes who you are but too much polish and your Eddie Haskell with no personality. They appreciate you prepping because it saves them from the too long 10 min "tell us about you?" that starts with "well mammy and pappy brought me into existence in 1970..." but they don't want canned answers. They have BS meters like everyone does. Some people will make this difficult but do the prep, put in some time getting your transcripts/logbook/application done 100%, and then be yourself.

Lots of people have been avoiding Emerald Coast (ECIC) ever since the owner started spewing out some racist stuff on his personal FB page last year and then couldn't make anything better than an insincere defensive apology about it.

I had no idea he did that (Emerald Cost).....that stinks because I used his service and believed he had a really great program. At the time the webinar format was great and I had 8 days from hitting apply to sitting across a table for an interview and his team got me ready. Just sucks

Emerald and Cage... you want to increase chances of passing the interview then hire one of them.

That's vague.. The bar has been set pretty low as to what's considered offensive or racist to this generation. You'd have to give more details than that. I used ECIC years ago and they helped me get to United. They've been in the business a long time.
