Process
I applied online for an on-campus interview. The interview itself consisted of generic behavioral and character questions and was conducted by an engineering manager and a senior engineer. Nothing too difficult or surprising, and not a single technical question to speak of. Several weeks went by with no word from the company before I received an email that offered the position.

American Airlines Work Experiences
- 4.0Great People, Interesting Work, Terrible OnboardingEngineering Co-Op • Current EmployeeCharlotte, North Carolina, United StatesJune 9, 2016Pros: The people are nice, the work is interesting, and flight benefits are always a plus. It is always neat to work around and on airplanes.Cons: The onboarding process is run by a third party, and the setup for your first day can be a pain. Engineering requires numerous accesses to various databases and services, but none of these are requested before you arrive. Expect several weeks of not being able to do much while waiting for managers and IT groups to approve you for access.
