Atlas Air Hiring
Yeah, it's not supposed to work like that anymore. I'd reach out if I were you. Used to be you were called out of the pool based on your overall score, which was re-ranked every time a new group was interviewed. If you scored low, conceivably you could've languished near the bottom for a long, long time. (One guy was in the pool for 1.5 years before getting a call) Now, there are three codes - Highly Recommend, Recommend, and Not Recommended (or something similar). Considering the amount of classes since September, I'd say you're overdue.
I know you've all heard it before but people are leaving here at an alarming rate. 2 more that I know of left this week. I've never seen more open time flying in my time here (5 years). Additionally, the air freight market is showing signs of significant improvement. IMHO, the hiring will continue at a blistering rate.

Atlas does offer stand by tickets on the following careers. Delta, united, American/usairways Jetblue and one more I can remember the name. It is under myidtravel.com. Not sure what they call the actual rate(id90, zed, whatever). Here are some examples of prices. For the islands you are looking at around 250$ for europe around 400-450$. That is leaving from Charlotte. Its pretty much the same prices as buddy passes. 60% of pilots at Atlas do not know this, the company does not advertise it.
Would a new hire have to wait 6 months to have access to myidtravel site? Reason I'm asking is that in order to list for a jumpseat on JetBlue one has to make a listing via myidtravel exclusively. Change in B6 policy about a month or so ago... No over the phone service anymore.

Perhaps not the same two, but heard one 747 FO left for UPS. A very recent 767 captain upgrade left to go to AA thanks to the JCBA. He was a TWA guy - recalled at 4-year FO pay (which is $10/hr less than Atlas 10-year 767 CA pay, not to mention AA's much higher 401k contribution) Handful of others were affected by the AA recall, but haven't heard if others have left.
Beyond that, I know of three 767 FOs leaving by next month for Alaska and two for Delta.

I'll keep on them! Was at the recent MIA job fair and was hoping that would do the trick but will have my recommendations call as well. They say persistence pays off.....here's hoping that's true! lol
