United Indefinitely Postponing Future Hiring
I got this email from HR today. I guess this makes it pretty clear where United is on hiring!
Dear Pilot Candidate,
As you know, you are currently scheduled for an interview at our Training Center in April.
We have just been informed of adjustments in our Training Schedule and have found it necessary to indefinitely postpone future Pilot New Hire Training Classes. Therefore, we are canceling all scheduled interviews at this time. We are very sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause you.
United, along with other U.S. airlines, has been managing to remain competitive in a difficult environment. However, we’ve seen a rapid escalation of fuel costs over the last six weeks. This, along with continued uncertainty about the overall U.S. economy, has put significant pressure on all U.S. carriers.
You should be receiving a phone call from someone on our staff to confirm your interview being canceled.
Once again, we are truly sorry for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your interest in United.
Anyone have any thoughts or other information on future hiring at United?
