You are still hired, and will be placed in the first MEM class that opens. Right now they are saying they need people in the A300 in MEM, but they will need 757, 767 and MD-11 people as well.
Don't bite off on two years in HKG or CGN unless you are sure that you can really swing it on first year pay.
Just to clarify....the pool is not first in first out. The pool is racked and stacked according to some unknown ranking system and MEM start dates pull from that list from top to bottom. As the pool repopulates, the order can change. I got hired the same day as another guy and we started five months apart with several classes in between.
