If I could chime in my $.02 - at my program, we have a panel interview with 
the candidates (usually the on-duty crew members & mgt), and then the 2nd 
round is when the possibles are invited back for an interview with our 
Medical Director.  At least for us, we tend to pick candidates that express 
viewpoints similar to the program mission, even though one may not have the 
most experience, he/she presents themselves better!  No, it's not just the 
certifications!

lonely for contemplation, the Trail leads not merely north and south, but 
upward to the body, mind, and soul of man."

Just because someone has more certifications (initials behind their name) 
doesn't automatically make them the best candidate or qualify them over 
someone with fewer.  As for "experience", depends on what type a person has, 
again more doesn't always mean better.  Sometimes an employer would rather 
have someone with less experience so they can train them to fit into their 
system and it's much easier to do this with someone with little experience 
then a seasoned veteran.  The other factors could be things like letters of 
reference, what ones application and or resume looked like when an employer 
reads them, how one presents themselves at the interview, dress, attitude, 
etc .... there could be any other number of things as well ...

   why is it that some people get hired into flight services that have less 
experience and certs than others?  Just wondering.  And for those that are 
wondering...yes i was one that didnt get hired; probably opening up a can or 
worms I dont want to, just want opinions.
