^^^^^^^

I will agree with most of this, but one part. I applied in 2013 and received an email out of the blue for the phone interview in February 2016. I didn't go to any job fair, don't know anyone who works at Allegiant either. Was asked to come to Las Vegas for the interview 10 minutes into the phone screen, offered the job same day as interview. One thing is for sure, they know exactly what they are looking for.

Huh? I did the course yesterday and I also can't seem to get a passing score even though I know all my answers are correct.

I guess I kinda thought that anyone who had taken the course and test would know exactly what I was talking about...unless, of course, the quiz has been modified since I took it. Given the sluggish nature of the company, I kinda doubt that the quiz has been modified.

I'm referring to the question (I think it was about new apps in the G4 store) that has "check daily" and "the company will notify you" as choices for answers..I had chosen the former, but it is the latter. I was convicted that all my answers were correct, as well, but I had this one wrong and was trying to help without giving up too much info. Clear as mud?

Irony sidenote: One of the things that the course says is required is not and it also gives incorrect guidance for iOs and app updates.

Plus, the hiring is done in conjunction with HR and a few members of the Training dept. Online applications are pulled by interns(who are coached what to look for) and HR for further consideration by flight ops management when specific selection criterias are triggered. Flight ops management personnel here are fair, aware of the current hiring envrionment and smart enough not to paint everyone the same, regardless of an individual agenda.

If you do get to a selection level by management, your keen desire to work at G4 and that you're already living at one of their large bases (I am assuming FL), will not go un-noticed.

Cheers.
Thank you.

If they like you during the call, they will ask you to come to Vegas for a formal interview. If they don't like you, they probably tell you they will get back to you.

Job fair is not required. Bottom line, they don't waste any time, they probably don't go through old resumes etc.. Whatever comes in fresh is what they pick so long as you are qualified or what they are looking for.
I applied 1.5 years ago. I Got the phone interview last October, then tbnt. I Got another phone interview in January, Invited to Vegas, and I start class on the 21st. Don't give up.

I think it's already been mentioned but only briefly. Not sure what to think about this. He sold $47.5 million in shares and still owns $557 million in shares. At its peek it was valued $832.7 million.

"LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - March 11, 2016) - Allegiant Travel Company (ALGT) today announced CEO Maury Gallagher and affiliated entities have sold 292,200 shares at a price of $163.50 per share. Mr. Gallagher plans to use the proceeds primarily to retire outstanding debt for existing personal ventures.

"I remain as committed to Allegiant as the day I started with the company," stated Maurice J. Gallagher Jr., Chairman and CEO of Allegiant Travel Company. "The Allegiant business model has demonstrated its resiliency in any environment and is only getting stronger. Longer term, we should be able to continue to grow the model as we move towards simplifying our operations to a single aircraft type. I look forward to my continued investment and involvement in the company for many years."

After this transaction, Mr. Gallagher continues to directly or indirectly hold more than 3.3 million shares, which is approximately 20% of the current outstanding shares as of March 10, 2016."

A CEO selling large portions of stock usually is done for a reason. His excuse was to pay debt on personal ventures. That's a lot of personal ventures.

Thanks for your highly thought out response though.
