You can’t access that gate as an interviewee (look at the context of the post you’re replying to).

Cage for the interview prep hands down.

I’d go Renaissance. It’s comfier and a little quieter. Can’t really go wrong though.

I also did DT and Emerald Coast. I don't think you can really go wrong with any of the big ones.

FWIW I did the online Cage course (less than $200 I believe) because I only had 6 days between invite and interview, and Cage couldn't fit me in. It gave me a few pointers that I felt were helpful. I also studied all day, every day for that interview as if my life depended on it. I felt that having rehearsed for as many TMAAT questions and studying as many gouge questions from aviation interviews was key. I was also told to know that interview packet front, back, upside down. Even know the number of pages in the packet. Now, my interview only had me go a few steps into the brief before we moved on and no question as silly as "how many pages" was asked. But better safe than sorry with an opportunity like this.

I stayed at Double Tree because I had just enough Hilton points to cover the whole stay.

Ascend Above is (or should be) the only answer.

He's United pilot on the hiring team. What more could you possibly want? And the insights he give are worth a lot more than what he charges for it.

How did you hear about that? I only ask because I’ve never heard of it, but certainly would have tapped into that resource if I had.

Met Nate and his team at PAPA last year. His credentials are impressive, and include masters degrees in HR.

An excellent choice too. I had already signed up for Cage when I talked to him but he and his team definitely seem to know what they are doing as well.

I second NW and his services at Ascend Above. Worth every cent.
