Proud to say I've submitted my first airline application and it was with Atlas.
I don't expect a call, I don't meet all the qualifications, I'm still waiting for my passport and I put in the email I'm not available until Oct 2013, but I figured it's never to early to apply.
To all those applying in this window, Good Luck!!

First off, please stop spinning what I said to make more out of it. I never said anything about being frustrated over not knowing where I sit in the stack. Your about the third person on this thread who has added more in response to me than what the original point was.
... It was rumored in the past that as the computer system receives the resumes/PAQs, if it recognizes your e-mail, and already received your info from that e-mail, it doesn't accept your new stuff. I have nothing to back this up, but it wouldn't hurt right?
Secondly, thanks for adding some MORE uncertainty. I sent my resume the first day, and then my resume and PAQ the second day from the one and only email address that I have. So now you have me doubting that they received my PAQ. Now if I make up a brand new email and send my stuff in again when they may already have two emails from me, they may pass judgement on me as a instant gratification seeking young rebel who is overzealous and conniving. RUMORS SUCK!
...

Well, I guess I find out one of these days whether your rumor is true and if I made the wrong decision not to resend it via a new email.:eek:

Cheers,

PtP

A couple points:

This may have been mentioned before, but it is probably worth repeating. For those who applied numerous months ago and are awaiting the first HR phone call, it might be beneficial to apply again from a different e-mail this time around. It was rumored in the past that as the computer system receives the resumes/PAQs, if it recognizes your e-mail, and already received your info from that e-mail, it doesn't accept your new stuff. I have nothing to back this up, but it wouldn't hurt right?

Also, if you are fortunate enough to have a current Atlas crew member recommend you through the internal system (which is basically a direct e-mail and LOR to HR), the company came out with a new system to track an applicant through the various steps. HR sends an e-mail to that crew member keeping them informed on which step of the interview process the recommended applicant has accomplished. I believe one of the e-mails was for receiving the resume and PAQ confirming the applicant is in the system.

Any way for someone to confirm this email address rumor? Thats pretty important info if it is indeed true, especially with many people having drastically different info on their submissions from last time.

You're fine, I was hired with around 3000 hours, zero heavy time and zero ocean crossings.

Thanks! As much as I'm flying should end up with around 4200 TT, 3000 PIC, 1800 IP and 50 evaluator hours.
I've done about 10 oceanic crossings, obviously not very many, but the Herk doesn't cross the pond much.
I hope my one downfall won't be the 73 type, but it comes with the ATP.
Either way, I'm over a year out, but Miami, Atlas and the lifestyle (plus all the cool people here in this thread), just sounds too good to be passed up.

I sent it another resume/paq in using a new email address only because the other day I was locked out of my ISP as someone tried to hack into my email. So I got a new email account and resent it before reading about this possible email address issue. Oh well!

I also had the 73 type, got it at HPA with the ATP. It came up during the interview but was not a big deal.

Good stuff. Judging from your name, worked at an FBO in your city and live 20 mi west. Shoot me a PM when you can if you'd like. I think they may have a 10 post minimum for PMs here.

I am a MS Atlas guy also. Retired Mississippi ANG and you guys?
PM ME if you can
