Behavioral

It took about 2 weeks to hear back from US Airways after I submitted my resume. The interview process was about 2 hours long, and I got the job offer the day after. It took me a few days to think it over and accept. We did a good amount of negotiating. If you're interviewing with US Airways, make sure your resume clearly shows all the key things mentioned in the job description, otherwise, it'll probably get thrown out. A computer system first looks for keywords, then a recruiter checks them, and finally, they go to the hiring managers.

Behavioral

The interview process started with two one-on-one interviews on campus, where most of the questions were behavioral or focused on my previous work experience. After that, I had another round of interviews in Tempe, AZ. This part included three more one-on-one interviews, and all the questions were behavioral or related to my past experience.
