Have any of the poolies from the June interviews received a class date?

Standard pilot resume style? I'm sure they don't give a crap about how many hours single engine land I have lol.

Just bullet points with TT, Turbine, Type, PIC, and SIC for the time breakdown?
APC has resources that show resume suggestions and formats.
As for Atlas specific stuff I included bullet points of Atlas' required published minimums: ME-ATP, total time, turbine time, Class 1 Medical, FCC License, Legally authorized to work in the United States, No restrictions on international travel, Current Passport, etc.
(The ability to pass a 10-year security background check and a pre-employment drug test would be evident if you have been airline flying for the past 10 years.)
I also used the PAQ to make sure I covered things from the questions there that seem to be important to Atlas.
Recruiters know how to read between the lines. If you've been flying C-17's or CRJ's there is no need to spell out what those flights entail. Keep it as concise as possible. Airline resumes should always adhere to the K.I.S.S. rule.

And for cripes sake; spell check!

Not only that, she's a Regional pilot, recently hired by Atlas, currently looking to get on at FedEx, who isn't even in type yet. Don't get your feathers fluffed over a Barbie Jet Driver, picking on folks, already drunk with the smell of the whale. I fly the 74, in ANC........you'll be fine. It won't take long for her to show her true colors.......I feel for future female applicants.

Don't ever let internet bullies bring you down (for shame FADECS) Fly for your family and for yourself. Atlas would be happy to have you!

June 11 interviewee, nothing yet.

I've emailed HR a couple times since then and the answer remains the same. Should be late Aug/Sept timeframe for a class.

I would guess that means hearing something later this month or next, in order to get a 2 weeks notice put in.

Scuttlebutt in ANC is that they aren't even through placing all the ANC interviewees, I believe they interviewed back in late April (?); patience young Padawan........your call will come in time. Hang tough poolies, the pool is shallow and they are ramping up class dates.

I love my career, but wont sacriface them for a paycheck. You obviously missed the "haha" at the end which you should've figured out was mostly a joke. Maybe you're too "tired" from flying around the world to notice.
Sorry, yes I was tired, hungry & cranky, from a 6 leg day in my Barbie jet and spoke way too long winded. I was just feeling afraid that you would miss out on such an awesome opportunity to get hired by Atlas by not coming to the job fair because of someone else. I actually am very gender neutral most of the time, I personally just feel frustated when my wife, brother, sister, mother, father, friend, concubine, tells me I cant go network to enhance my career ;-) thats the bottom line really...and we all had to start flying someplace too, my regional experience in the Barbie jet is very valuable...not all of us are allowed to go directly from flying a 172 to flying the mighty whale. I hope you do come to Atlas, because everyone I know at Atlas is great, even the grumpy male & female pilots :-) you may actually work less at Atlas then you do now, so it might benefit your family with you at home more days a month...all the best cbus in whatever you decide is best for your family. See page 1099 if you want to ace the technical test (last guy just got a 91 using it) and let me if you want to work at Atlas & I will direct you to the best interview gouge you have ever seen in your life

I'm an Anchorage interviewee that went through the interview process in April. I was recently asked to attend the 20 July class. Just to emphasize what ANCatlas said, patience will pay off... It sucks waiting, but it's all part of the process. It took them about two months to offer me a class after being placed in the pool, so you've still got some time. Take advantage and have some fun at home before you have to leave for a while!

For the junior bases, ANC and CVG, what are the common routes?

Would putting a call into HR (and asking for someone by name) be helpful for someone looking to get in?

I will be attending the OBAP conference either way, and I finally got OBAP to clarify whether one has to be a member or not to attend (they're unsure themselves).
