Edit:
OK, my bad. I logged into the site using my LinkedIn account. It filled in the form for me.

Phone chat Monday

If anyone has done the phone chat could you please fill us in on some details? I do mine Monday and I'll let you know what I find out. I have heard they already have a hiring pool to last them through July or August ground schools.

To all FWIW: AS has delayed (scheduled) pre-Xmas interviews until springtime. No dates yet, time TBD.

There seems to have been a little instability in their current process.

Very relaxed. Seems to be more of a formality and she mentioned they will email when they actually post openings for positions, but to keep an eye on their website and apply when the job opens again.

Sounds like the Delta SEA base "surge" is getting some traction. For those who do a lot of international/national domestic commercial travel protecting that "Platinum Status" is VERY important. Unfortunately, that demographic would tend to prefer Delta.

That said, the strictly West Coast market travelers still prefer Alaska.
