Is enigma correct? SWA is interviewing 20 to hire 1? On top of that, the odds on a second or third interview are low? That sounds like a bunch of worthless 737 type ratings floating around out there. I'm sure Higher Power and other schools is just "Luv'n" it. Ineresting how much flack the UAL interview process used to take on this board (worthy criticism up until they fixed the process in the late 90s I will admit). However, the interview to hire ratio even at its worst at UAL was never close to the 20 to 1 ratio and it didn't cost a major chunk of change either.


----Missed the update. One in five seems more reasonable. Still leaves plenty of worthless 737 types though.
Mugs, I was thinking 20% ( as in 5 to 1) and wrote 20 to 1.

I don't think that the 73 ratings are worthless, having one helped me convince the Spirit interviewer that I could succeed in a fast paced, no spoon feeding, training environment. :D

I gambled on the rating way back when I was just barely qualified. I didn't get in then and haven't yet succeeding in achieving the job. Maybe next week, maybe never. In any case, I'd do it again.

BTW, it sure is nice to have a good job when looking for a better job.
