Default job fairs

I don't really care for the idea of needing to attend a job fair at our expense to secure and interview for a potential job, however, it seems to be a necessity these days. If you don't agree with the practice then don't go and keep waiting for a call...

I broke down, went to a job fair, got a call after the weekend to come in for the interview. I had already completed the online assessment with no word back prior to the job fair.

I have talked to a couple people at Atlas that never applied to Atlas. They simply attended the job fair, stopped by the booth, chatted with them and dropped off a resume. A few days later they received the call to send a resume, PAQ and complete the online assessment.

Long story short- if you really want to work for Atlas try to get to the job fair and chat with them.

Default 2016 class dates?

Besides the February 1st, 767 class, has anybody heard any dates posted for the 747 or 767 after the 1st of Feb.?

I'm in the pool and awaiting a class date. I haven't been contacted yet....hoping I'm not treading water too long!

Happy holidays to you all.

Next tentative class for the 747 is Feb. 26th.
OE is very backed up and they are trying to reduce the time from Indoc to the line.

Thank you. Curiously, the 26th is a Friday. I thought all classes started on Monday?

Ha! Very true. Not sure why, that was just the date told to us by the training director.

Well I did an online assessment about two months ago. No call or anything since then. Guess a 94% is not good enough. Good luck and have fun to those who have made it.

Well wishes to my friend and anyone else getting a call.
Well I am looking for experience of someone getting a call for the Jan 18 interview. I am sorry but I am not looking for hearsay.
