After applying to every major airline where I met the qualifications and updating my applications after every trip, for seven years, I finally got called to my first major airline interview, where I was turned down.
I have a friend that has been applying to UPS for 17 years. He just got the job there recently.
Have some patience, keep at it, and realize if it was that easy, we would all be making $8 an hour doing it.

I appreciate the advice! I haven't been invited for an interview. I figured that with the growth, mass attrition, and beginning of a pilot shortage, they would need to start intensively hiring. I'll keep trying. It sounds like they start calling people around 3000TT.

Do you all Atlas pilots think that the success Local1224 had at Allegiant will follow Atlas?

It's taking roughly 7 months to get a pilot through OE from DOH...
Plan of making close to nothing for 7 months.
2/2016 new hires are still waiting on OE, 3 months after type ride. Thus being sent back for another PC with minimal training.
God speed

Took it in May. It was pretty much spot on. Find a jepp wx symbol chart, gleim atp for the wx and performance and some of those icao docs for oceanic contingency stuff. Oh, and have a pilot friend help.
