I have interviewed there 3 times. 2005 when i had no ACMI long haul experience.
2008 after i had been working for evergreen for 3 years on both the classic and 400. then again in 2010, still working for Evergreen and losing the Dreamlifter to Atlas.
Results first 2 times put in a pool and the last time got the no thank you.

So there is no rhyme or reason that i can see. I am reapplying for number 4 interview and hope to hear something soon. But not holding my breath. This whole experience has made me a realize that I can only do my best and hope that I will get the job. Because I can not see how my growing experience has helped me get the job.
I know that markets shift and it is just a matter of hitting the job market @ the right time. But i also know they have hired pilots over there that I wouldn't trust with my bicycle let alone an airplane.actually its just one pilot so i should not make generalizations. anyway my frustrated attitude and 2 cents
