More voluntary leave of absences listed for September.

We are overstaffed, while waiting for these planes, I wouldn't plan on any JRMs.

Is there a specific email address to send letters of rec to, or do we just send them to SF directly?

If spirit wants 4k minimum. How much time are guys getting on with? Can you have 4k get lucky and get right in? Can you have 10k and never get a call? Spirit is my goal airline.

Yes. (I had just over 4300 total time)

Yes, I know a few people in this boat. I also know a few with much more than 10k hours who've gotten hired on.

The magic combo seems to be job fairs + letters of rec, but again, nobody seems to know the exact formula. Stay persistent.

Took me two job fairs, a few letters and a steady stream of updated resumes, FedEXed to SF directly. Which of these avenues worked? No clue. But it finally happened, after a year of dogged persistence.

Good luck!

Ive read some of your interesting posting history. Thankfully you are nowhere even close to Spirits mins to even worry about what the hour requirements are. Furthermore, you might want to grow into your own pants before you try putting on the big boy britches

In my interviews, I had over 21,500 hours and a lot of other candidates had similar times having been furloughed from other carriers. Persistence pays off.

I just re-applied again and see there is a whole new format... I did the online assesment test and I think the other was the Cog test? how many people have done it the new way so far and gotten a response and how quick was the response? thanks
