We've reviewed your background and qualifications for a role of First Officer and while we believe you are well on your way to fitting the bill, we'd like to hold your application for future new hire classes. Over the next few months, you may receive communication form our recruiting team regarding hiring events, meet and greets and/or next steps of your application. Please don't forget to periodically update your resume or application on file so we can continue to explore opportunities for you to join our team. We hope that being transparent in communicating this timeframe, you'll maintain interest in joining our team."

I haven't heard anything since getting that email. Anybody else received the same email? If so, have you actually gotten further communication and/or an interview? I live in FL and I figured they would at least email me to encourage me to go to the Aero Crew job fair next month in MIA...nope, nothing.
Thanks all!

Why would they email you? If you're interested, go to the career fair and update your resume. You'll be waiting a long time if you're waiting for them.

I know (and I agree) that I can go to the job fair on my own. I'm wondering if anyone else has received this email, and, if so, what their experience was in the months that followed.

Thanks again for any insight you all have.

Thanks.

That's one of the interesting things I did witness about the narrative on here regarding G4. The second the pay issue got ameliorated, the entire safety narrative subsided. Get real. I had a buddy who passed on employment offer at G4 circa the strike threat time in '15, and the scuttlebutt in the squadron was very much a sense that going to work for Allegiant while waiting for DL/UA/AA/SW to call was gambling with your tickets, and that the mx practices were a big threat to the operation outright, regardless of pilot relations and negotiations.

Are we to believe the mx practices and corporate culture of an agency with ValueJet'esque carbon copy behavior (almost identical in forensics, right down to the above average profit yields up to the crash event) changed polarity overnight just because the pilots are now content to idle in place versus the grievances two years ago? I don't buy that for one second. I believe you guys are going to be the next ValueJet and it will be a catalyst for yet another 1500 rule type of populist outcry, which will challenge some of the hiring dynamics we are currently seeing. Ironically enough, probably going to affect the regionals more than the majors. I'm not trying to be hyperbolic, I have no axe to grind against G4 from a pilot perspective (im not a regional guy, just a mil/civ hybrid), but from a safety practices standpoint G4 quacks like a duck, it's just a matter of time. Getting my hush money isn't enough for me to act like the mx discourse on this very forum circa 2014-2015 didn't happen. It's almost unbelievable how quickly the narrative changed on here. This place is an echo chamber.

My family doesn't fly G4 at any price. This isn't about fares, it's about an honest and educated assessment on the mx practices from an industry peer review POV. To each their own. When one of those paid-for maddogs fails to rotate again or the T-tail flies off, or a clapped out engine uncontains and kills a bunch of people, nobody on here can act like all of a sudden this is a surprise.
