I really am keen to have a permanent career with Frontier and have been hearing that one must attend the job fair to have a shot at an interview . However , before I pay to go to a fair id like to know how does frontier view check ride failures and what is there max number of training failures for someone they hire. I know this may vary case by case but in my case I have 2 failed orals and 2 failed pc checks and of course I had my reasons behind this due to my personal life changing over the past few years from death in the immediate household and going through divorce during these training events . Appreciate any feedback. Thank you .
My opinion is you can definitely still be a candidate. It is how you handle and explain it. You need to talk to a counselor about it. I recommend LORI CLARK. She is, in my opinion, the best for that. I have a friend that got on here with a check failure, multiple speeding tickets, a few other personal mistakes too. It was in his past, he has learned from them. He learned how to convey his mistakes by going to Lori and he is now in training.
You mention life issues, this airline is great for those. I have never worked for a more caring airline. I had a serious family issue during my oral and check ride. They could not have been more understanding. I even had a serious event happen to me the morning of recurrent and the CP called me to just make sure everything was ok and see if I would like some time off.
This place is great. These are all my opinion though. I am sure there are some people here in the know about checkered past issues.
