I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at American Airlines (Honolulu, HI)
Interview
Reply to email. Submit resume. Take an online application test with a bunch of questions. Some questions were strange, like would you listen to your manager or give the customer a First Class upgrade? I'm used to these tests and usually pass them, but they emailed me about two months later saying that I was not selected.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Many situational answers with vague options. A lot of questions about how you would react (would you tell on your coworkers for stealing, would you listen to your manager or upgrade the customer)
First they assign you an interview, so doesn’t matter if you are available or not, and they don’t tell you when it is until about 5 days before. I scrambled to get my work covered for that day and in an email they tell you to get to the airport 15 min before your time. I get their on time but have to wait at the ticket line to tell someone I’m there. By the time I get to a person, it’s my interview time and it proceeds to take more time for the agent to tell someone I’m even there. At this point I’m late and the supervisor tells me that the manager said I’m late and I’ll need to reschedule. It’s not even 3 minutes past, and I’ve left work early and driven 30 minutes for nothing. They don’t even validate my parking for me, so now I have to pay to park for nothing as well. Don’t bother applying here, it’s a waste of time.

Interview
The interview process was professional and well-structured. It began with an initial discussion about my background and experience, followed by questions focused on my skills, problem-solving abilities, and how I would handle responsibilities related to the role.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked me how I handle pressure when multiple priorities are competing. It stood out because it directly relates to the pace of the role and how I stay organized and focused
Not much to say, I didn’t get the job. I interviewed online and it was pretty straight forward, but I didn’t like the location I would’ve had to work at, so we didn’t proceed
