That's what I thought...I know ERAU has a career expo thing where you can talk face-to-face to internship recruiters, give them a resume, etc. You can even go the year before you seriously are looking for an interview and just talk, and then the year you need the interview/internship, they'll already kind of know you. That seems like a great opportunity to me. (Actually, DL only considers candidates from a few select universities, I believe)
From what I've heard, the Delta internship is less well-known as internships at Southwest and United.
What I'm wondering is, if I graduate college with ATP mins (whatever they end up being), could that internship lead to employment with Delta without having to go to a regional first, keeping in mind the upcoming hiring projections?
