    • They want the truth. Don't make excuses. If you busted a checkride, what did you learn from it? They seem to want to just know what type of a person you are.
  10. 10. (Jun 29, 2024) Why PSA?
    • USAir subsidiary.
    • The merger between US Air and American provides stability in jobs that pursue
    • I choose PSA because it is a stable and growing company. It has a great track record and all of the articles I have recently read about PSA show that it is an ideal place to work. It is the kind of company that offers the stability that one would aspire to work with and grow with. It is also wholly owned by the American Airlines Group which shows to be one of the stronger airlines in the world today!
    • Fast growing airline with rapid movement on seniority list. The opportunity to domicile where I live and strong belief in 4 core values (know them). On top of all that, there will be a guaranteed job with American once your number comes up.
    • Safety, passion, professional excellence, respect. I found them on their website.
