Interviewed Jan 2010 in Honolulu, HI (took a day)
After passing the group and individual interviews, I was contacted by the contracted "HR" department to have the background, medical and drug tests scheduled. These were conducted over about a months time - it seemed like they were not really organized and there was no rush, but I attributed this to our "Hawaiian" way of doing business. After passing the background check, medical and drug tests, I was told to begin employment on Feb 4.
Then, this date was later changed to Feb 15, then the 22nd, then "we will let you know." Also, the fingerprinting appointment was abruptly canceled. No reasons given, just "hold'.
Still to this date, have not heard back. They come across as disorganized and lacking any focus. Maybe this is typical of the dysfunctional airline industry itself. What a way to "NOT" run a business.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Chicago, IL (took 4+ weeks)
Submitted application online and was contacted within a few days to schedule a phone interview with HR (interview was more informal - about culture, fit, job description). A second phone interview with the hiring manager followed a couple of weeks later. This interview focused on my skills and experience in performing similar work elsewhere. I was invited to an interview at their headquarters to meet with HR, hiring manager, team of peers, and director of the group. The peer interview was unprofessional - one of the interviewers just got up and walked out while I was speaking with no explanation and never returned. I was then given a skills test (not case questions) that would be appropriate for a recent high school graduate and not someone with an MBA and 17+ years industry experience. I was insulted. Aside from HR and the hiring manager, most of the staff were cold and unfriendly and I was relieved to receive a form reject email a few days later. While I invested a great deal of time with this process, it was worthwhile to discover this isn't a company where I want to work.
