Default CP meet & greet (an actual positive post)

Hey,

For those of you still waiting, take heart! Did my meet & greet this morning at IAD, and it was a very positive experience. They are clearly going to need a lot of pilots for the foreseeable future. No tech questions, a quick review of the resume, and the most obvious question - why United. 1 mil, 1 regional, 1 major and myself (mix corp and 121). It's clearly a mini interview, but with much less stress. Success in this event puts you on a much improved track.

Hope this helps! Good luck to all.

What is the typical process after the meet and greet?

I left it on the center pedestal to remind myself that I left the APU on.

You keep networking and updating, in hopes of getting a phone call for the interview.

PG, that was really funny.
