I applied online. The process took 12 months. I interviewed at Southwest Airlines (Dallas, TX) in Mar 2017
Interview
Phone interview was great - friendly person and general questions about me. Flew to Dallas for in-person interview. I probably dressed a bit more casually than others. Nice pants and sweater. Several were in suits. The information said to come early if you arrived early so I did. However, that only resulted in my sitting and waiting for three hours talking with other candidates. We had brief presentation and then individual interviews. I spoke with a manager type flight attendant and young flight attendant. One was experienced and good interviewer. The second was millennial type who had continuous “not impressed” face.
