Apparently sharing honest feedback isn’t welcome around here, even when acknowledging how good we have it. I guess it would be better if no one said anything and Alaska sits there wondering why they have recruiting and attrition problems.
If this sounds harsh, it’s not the intent. But, why no ATP? I realize it’s not technically a requirement for us anymore. Listed as “preferred”, but if I’m looking at your resume and you have the time and type ratings you say- it would almost be a red flag. At a minimum, it doesn’t look like you’re serious about the job. Maybe I’m out of touch with the current job market…but that’s my honest feedback.
