Any additional information you would like to add. Great experience. From when we all arrived, it was very apparent they were excited to have us there. The face to face was very relaxed, just a conversation about flying with two captains. A few WWYD scenarios. The one on one HR portion was also very short and relaxed. The biggest stand-out portion for me was when the chief in charge of recruitment came out to talk to the group I was in, he had a lot of great stuff to say, and was very supportive of us.
Is there anything you wish you could have done different to prepare you for this process? None.
