Depending on where your coming from in the industry 2 weeks isn’t enough. Several guys I interviewed with are coming from the corporate world including myself. These companies operations basically shut down until a replacement pilot is found. Giving them only a 2 weeks notice is not well received in most cases. We were told we would get a confirmation at least 30 days prior to class starting. Our last communication from the company stated that the April class was slightly reduced however they would resume full training/hiring with the May class. A week later we received a generic pool letter which indicated a potential class date of July/August. This letter was sent to everyone who wasn’t already in training. So they were telling 3+ months worth of new hires the same thing. It was a little confusing to say the least. We have tried to get a clear answer on what’s going on but no one has responded to our inquiries. We all understand that needs change and schedules may need to be adjusted. All we are asking for is clear communication on what is happening so we can plan accordingly.
