Asking a question does not equal entitlement or not happy. If you have a preference ask. If the answer is no say thanks and take what you get.
I asked and I was told no. I said thanks and I'm pumped to get a great job either way.

I'm about 1-2 years off from upgrading. My QOL is great now and I'm surviving on pay. Obviously QOL will go down and pay will go up upon upgrade. My end goal is mainline.

When I got asked that question (twice... once on the phone, once in the hr panel interview), I said any airplane would be great, at this point I just want to be on the seniority list, BUT, If I really do have a choice, I'd choose the whale.
I got the whale, and on the next class. (Don't know if it helped me or no, but I'm here).

^^^ make sure to re-apply every 30 days. If still no response, job fairs. Next big one that Atlas should be at will be Women's in Aviation conference. Sometime early March. That should trigger the online assessment test.
