Advice for interviews?
Hey folks, I just got a virtual interview invite, which will happen mid August. What should i expect for that and, should i be so fortunate as to advance beyond, for the in-person interview? Thanks for your advice….

if you’re using a computer in your daughter’s room, make the beds behind you. If your dog barks a lot, ask your wife not to yell at the dog. And don’t read from prepared answers to questions you think you’ll get. And wear pants.

Hey, congrats on the virtual interview. I just did mine a few days ago. Make sure you submit everything they ask for a few days prior to the interview. (give the system enough time to process it) Review the Southwest Careers webpage for their purpose, vision, promise, etc. The person that replied before me is correct. Make sure the room you are going to be interviewing in is clean, organized, and perhaps maybe a picture or two on the wall to show personality. Also make sure a light can be shined in front of you and not behind you, they need to be able to see your face and not the shadow. Have your resume out in front of you. you will be interviewed by one HR and one Pilot and they will ask you a series of questions, WHY SOUTHWEST?, TMAAT, weaknesses, strengths, Do not mumble and have fun. One last thing if you are using a Mac computer, I highly recommend downloading the webex app. The system gave me a hard time allowing the platform to have access to my camera and mic on the web version.

It’s best to rely on the footprint they give you. However, I got in the night before and out the day of the interview. IMO, it’s less stressful this way!

don’t be weird, don’t be a jerk and don’t lie.

I’d fly in the night before and have one less thing to worry about. Definitely can get out that evening though.
