It didn't prevent them from bidding it but some chose not to put ANC 74 on their standing bid. As soon as a vacancy opened where they want they would get it over any new hire or 74 pilot they were senior to. Yeah they may have got it before they finished training but I guess some didn't want to take the chance.

The 767 is where all the cool kids are, anyway! As far as 767 pilots not bidding ANC, everyone who's come off seat lock and wanted to transitioned has transitioned. Few, if any, are holding ANC (and are doing so voluntarily). It was a concern for a little while that they were playing games up in Purchase, but it turns out the concern was unfounded. A good number have recently transitioned directly from the 767 to a lower 48 -400 base, IIRC.

Personal preference, I suppose. More than that gets unwieldy, IMO. 100 questions, 60 minutes. Time is of the essence, and honestly, any pilot with a laptop would fit the bill. Google is the real expert.
Read the question, select the first answer that you think fits best, tag it if you're unsure, come back to it if you have time. Skip the time-suck questions until after the first pass.
It works pretty well.

Dang you want to help? 
Has there been any word on where Atlas might be showing up for job fairs in the future? I know they'll be at the FAPA thing in DC on the 24th but I can't make that one. Any bets on them being at any of the aero crew solutions fairs this fall and winter?

I did the test a few days ago. Waiting for a call. Anyone else in the same boat? Don't know when to expect the call, if I get it.
I didn't find the test that hard, although I had studied for about five days straight while sitting reserve, taking no breaks except for sleep and to watch the Dodgers games,
. I thought it was honest, straight-forward, and no real tricks. If you study what has been talked about previously on this thread, you're good to go.
