I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at American Airlines (Fort Worth, TX) in Feb 2011
Interview
Went through and initial resume screening process, then when scheduled for a 30min. phone interview. In the phone interview they initially ask you to walk them through your resume, why you want to work for AA, and a basic behavioral question or two. Next they ask you to walk them through 2 small business case questions, then they answer any questions you might have prepared.
In the next round you are invited to HQ and given a written 30min test consisting of 3 mathematical word problems that require an understanding of basic algebra/formula, a business case question, and a question referring to the practice of overbooking. Next you go into a series of four 30min interviews with managers that follow the same basic format at the phone interview. Upon completion they take you to an informal lunch where you are encouraged to ask more questions about AA then you are finished.
I got referral for the revenue management market analyst position. I was able to do first round of interview that was virtual. I got invited to second round of interview that is in-person.
After successfully applying through an employee referral at American Airlines, I am thrilled to have secured a virtual interview, which is scheduled to last for approximately forty-five minutes in total.
