Does anyone know if I have to use my American Airlines credit card in the shopping portal? For example if I have a gift card to one of the places if I just use that do I still get the points for the purchase? It seems like it but I am trying to verify. TIA

As in SimplyMiles? If so, you need to register ANY mastercard first and then shop with the registered cards. Gift cards will not work since you cannot register it

Oh then you're fine

What are some questions I could ask during the first interview?

Anyone have slow months where you burn through a lot of your allotted pro bono/professional development hours to keep hitting minimum daily hours? The past few weeks have been like this for me.

I’ve been asking partners if I can assist in any projects so I can fill my plate, but I’ve only gotten small (4-6 hour) tasks handed my way.
