I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Southwest Airlines (Dallas, TX) in Nov 2016
Interview
Applied online and then got a call for a phone interview schedule.
Scheduled the phone interview and did the phone interview after 3 days.
They called me back 2 weeks later and asked me what fits my schedule during a 2-3 day period and flew me down to Dallas as per my request. Had to stay overnight for a morning interview. I got to know later on that they interviewed 4-5 people and finally selected 2 of us (Yes I got selected, Yay!).
There will typically be 2-3 people in the interview and the interview lasts 25-35 minutes typically.
It was a one way interview software was rlly buggy and syas you can redo the videos if you mess up but you cant :(. All behavioural basic like why southwest, why this position specifically, how does your experience, course work and involvemnet align with this position, a time you had conflict.
Lots of STAR style questions that pertain to past experiences. The interview was primarily conversation based, and not intimidating at all, would definitely recommend in any department, even if nervous.
It was quick and easy. This was the first round and more of a screening to make sure I met the same requirements that were mentioned on the application. They only asked 3 behavioral questions.
