I was told that some people don’t get called because it took them 6 years to finish their bachelors. Also a guy with a GPA of 2.9 in mechanical engineering weighs more than a guy with a GPA of 3.5 in creative writing. Any truth to this?
Thanks for the help everyone!
Truth to all of that. Your key words, though, are "some people". There have been numerous exceptions to all of Delta's general hiring practices. Delta considers the whole app / whole person, and is perhaps one of very few airlines who manually review and score their applications. There is no computer screening the thousands of apps as is done elsewhere.
