Flight Benefits - All employees get to fly for next to nothing as standby passengers anywhere that American flies.
Compensation - Excellent pay for a college internship position.
Management - Engineering Leads and Managers are intelligent and fair; most have worked their way up to their position from the very bottom.
Experience - Many employees have 10+ years of experience in their field, and several have 20 or 30+ years.
Outdated technology - many processes are outdated but still functional.
Some corporate inefficiencies - IT is slow to respond, and there are lots of redundant systems/paperwork.
Be stricter on inefficiencies. Do not allow employees to continue to work at a rate or make mistakes that cost the airline money. Trim the fat.

Easy and quick. You will have at least two people in the interview: one from the union and one from the company. Both will ask questions and both will grade you based on your answers and skills test.

A fine experience with a long-term bond. Processing slow applicants with a long-term bond, the interview process is long and tiring, with efforts and time not being utilized.
