General Overview of Experience	Great experience. Laid back and welcoming. Day 1 cog test is a haze and a test of nerves. I know I bombed a few sections and still got hired. Don’t sweat it. Day 2 interview was standard 2v1 questioning with a Captain and FO. About 45 minutes. A handful of situational questions and other questions getting to know you. Be open, honest, humble and excited. HR was about 20 minutes with just some basic questions. Got CJO on the spot along with about 3/4 of our group. If you make it to Dallas they really want you.
