But yeah, Chicago is growing and becoming an all ORD base, no more dual base with MDW. Expect to see a new East Coast domicile soon.
I believe you are interviewing for the NOV class. Seniority is based on age in the class, oldest is most senior.
Read up on ULCC business models. Read news stories about Frontier by searching in Google News. Read the press releases on the FlyFrontier.com website.
We are transitioning into an Ultra Low Cost Carrier, and you should be very familiar with the pros and cons of that business model.
As far as the other apps questions goes; don't lie. They do not expect that you only applied to one major. They want people who are going to stay. Its very costly to hire and train someone who immediately leaves for United. Tell them that yes you applied to other airlines, but you are really glad that Frontier called first. Tell them you believe in the ULCC business model, and you think Frontier has a very bright future and you want to be a part of it. -- Or something like that.. Lol.
Good Luck!
Hey thanks for the info! Really appreciate it. I PM'd you my location. I'm a bit hesitant to put to much personal info here, esp right before the interview
