Sorry you feel that way. We try to post useful information and when applicants are successful, we like to celebrate their successes with them. Of course there is some goofy sounding stuff about the grill, but if you get the interview or a class date, you'll want to join the gang there to gather useful tips for the job.

"Many basic questions have already been answered ten times..." Yeah, because that's worth reading?! The same answer ten times?
There's LOTS of great info in there. And I appreciate people taking the time to answer, and YES it is frustrating when people randomly post, "What's Atlas like?" on this thread....
But stop being such d-bags. The last FIFTY pages have been largely nothing more than "Anyone get a call?" and "I started class today!"
Yeah, REAL great reading. Get over it already.
Not quite sure what you mean here ... I understand that reading the same answer 10 times is redundant and tiring, but when we have to write the same answer 10 times, it is a waste of post space and our time. We'd rather answer new questions! It also shows a lack of interest and dedication from the questioning poster who hasn't the time to spend on the research for a great job.

Many posts in the last 50 pages include the timelines that successful interviewees experienced which some folks find helpful as well as answers to the often asked questions about qualifications and flight times.

It took me over 7 months of updates to get the first call. A shorter time than some but longer that most, so I can understand when people get frustrated waiting for a call, but don't take it out on the guys who are trying to help out. We're really not d-bags. We just like to steer guys in the right direction and part of that is reading our previous work so we can avoid the redundancy that you pointed out.

So hang in there and keep updating your stuff at Atlas. It appears that we will be hiring many pilots this year and when you get the call, you will be assured of having the latest and greatest when you stay updated with this thread.
