Have they created a way for us to get people we know an interview yet?

All I have couple of questions for recent new hires.

- What kind of timeline 2018 hires are seeing from video interview invite to class date?

- What is the current background check wait time, more or less?

Thanks!

2/26: Request for vid invite
5/15: Class date

background check probably took less than a week. had a delay in getting drug test done (insert joke here). from completion of drug test to class date email was 3 business days.

Sounds like it goes fairly quick after the face 2 face. Did your class date email include a couple of dates or just one?

Just one... Pilot Recruitment tells you they try to fill first available once your background check is complete. If you can't make the class date they offer, it seems they will work with you to defer to a later date

Hey, I had my video interview invite February 23rd. And then just got my CJO on April 13th and finished my drug test and background on April 16th.
I'm hoping for that May 15th day!

Can anyone who has been hired recently with any marks on their record explain how that went during the interview? Made a horrible mistake back when I was 18/19 having a fake id trying to buy some beers in a liquor store. Didn’t realize how it would follow me for the rest of my career. Charge was essentially dropped but it’s still in the background checks. United and Delta gives you a place to explain a situation like this in the airline apps, but I don’t see anywhere appropriate to put it in pilot credentials. I obviously want to own up to my mistake in the application prior to any possible interview (if I can even get one with that in my past).
