Posting my hiring timeline for others as a point of reference.

- Submitted my information to the online background check portal: Day after receiving CJO
- Start date received: About 2 weeks after receiving CJO
- Alaska retrieved my PRD file: About 3 weeks after receiving CJO (I don't see anything in my PRD portal to indicate this, but Alaska said they retrieved it the same day I granted access)
- Cleared background check: About 7 weeks after receiving CJO

Interviewed 2/1. All the background check stuff submitted. No class date. Know a guy who had a December class date and is going to have a long delay before OE. Guess maybe they’re slowing things to try to keep from getting further behind on OE? On interview day they said to expect “late spring” class dates and they’d let me know 3-4 weeks before start date. Wouldn’t be surprised not to hear anything for another month or more.

A friend of a friend has an interview on 3/21, so I know they are actively interviewing. Weekly I believe.

I interviewed mid January. I provided the information for my background check the day after the CJO. Took my background check about 6 weeks to clear. Received my start date after my background check cleared. I am around 3 months from interview to start date.

I heard of another applicant who received a CJO a week after me and has almost the exact timeline I have seen.

Interview 1/5, class date originally 4/17 and has been moved to a sooner date twice. I know of others in the interview group who were initially given late March dates and have since moved as well.

Why would anyone wait that long?

Were they offered an actual date or was this an estimation?

Woah. Is that due to training constraints or are they actually living up to that rumor about them making people wait awhile to reduce class attrition?

The inefficiency is a bummer either way. There are a few of us who really want to fly for Alaska over the other airlines, despite Alaska’s many shortcomings. Wish there was a way to make that known. Frustrating to know some people are taking up spots for those of us who really want a career here and will leave right away. Went to a MTC event in January, was recommended for the interview, and I have an internal recommendation, meet all their requirements. Applied at the end of January. Still says under review.
