I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at American Airlines (Fort Worth, TX) in Aug 2011
Interview
Very long process--2 months minimum. Extensive background check, paperwork, etc. Interview in a "panel style" with 2-3 managers, along with other applicants for same position.
First impression of company was very good.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
