Sorry if I ruffled any feathers. I'm not tech savy enough a search function. I know a lot about vx. Just not the questions I asked. Thanks

Just got the TBNT after interviewing with Virgin, so I feel as though I can freely comment on what we were told.
I interviewed last week with 7 others. We were told there were around 30 in the pool currently, and classes wouldn't start until end of summer. We were told if we were successful that we could expect a class date at end of year, beginning of next.
It seems the key to getting a call now is a LOR. I've personally applied every opening for at least 3 years. 3700TT, 200TPIC, and an associates. Every person interviewing that day had a LOR.
Good luck to future candidates.

Thanks. No big deal. I really wanted the job.
I take solace in the fact that the reason the product is as good as it is, is because they're extremely good at hiring only those who are "virgin enough." If it means eliminating people who are but can't show it, then oh well.

Sitting in the passenger seat of my girlfriend's car passing SFO, she says "you know Virging offers a paid year sabbatical every three years," to which I respond where did you hear that and the likelihood of that for flight crews is so infinitesimally low. "A friend knows someone who interviewed there..."
So...their corporate folks get this deal or is this totally bad intel for the company at large...or do you guys really have some hidden gem that is so insanely ludicrous a I can't believe it?
