Your interview has already started. There are plenty of SKYW pilots here, and maybe some other SKYW employees.

(Be sure to dress conservatively and not think you can travel casual then change somewhere before the actual interview.)

I have seen where an applicant finished the interview then changed out of his suit and into jeans and a sweatshirt, IN THE INTERVIEW BUILDING, before he left for the drive home.

Or back in the day, I heard of an applicant who called reservations and changed his return PS ticket home to a week later so he could hang with friends and family and go skiing. In the process he annoyed someone and soon after returning home got the no thanks letter.

When I interviewed it wasn't a positive space ticket, just standby. I ended up jumpseating out on Southwest instead.

Years ago the guys doing the hiring would speak with the secretary, who helped the applicants with the paperwork etc, etc, at the end of the day - "Kitty, anyone you wouldn't hire?" Bam, AMF!
