We wre told we'd hear by close of business day 2 if we got flagged. Sure enough, 2 guys did. Good news is both met and passed the board.

Glad it turned out okay for them. With so many applicants flagged and subsequently pardoned, I'm inclined to believe the test is not consistent across the entire applicant pool. Based on some of the questions, for example, I wouldn't be surprised if someone who has recently served in combat comes across as overly anxious (people want to hurt me) or hostile (I think about hurting people). Good to know that Delta has a process in place to help free the wrongly accused!

Just a WAG but the test probably is not geared for returning combat folk and they have to individually go over the test and throw out certain questions. Nerve wracking though... best of luck.

I was flagged and subsequently did not pass the "board". I remember the question about "hearing noises at night" or something like that and answered YES. I live on horse property and just prior to my interview my horse was trying to eat dogfood from the back deck and knocked over some chairs in the process. People I talked to said, "thats not what they are asking". I just answered truthfully and it cost me the job. I couldn't believe it. Oh well. I landed my dream job at another Legacy and it could not have worked out better. However, I don't think thats always the case unfortunatelly. I'm not big on this process.

Horses are my wifes expertise but depending on the dog food vendor you may be right. I forgot to mention my father is a seasoned 777 CA at Delta, and yes thats probably part of the reason why I got the interview. My point is, does the apple far from the tree? I thought I was crazy for a few months.
