Default College Transcripts

I was wondering if airlines,corporate flight dept's e.t.c require to see your college transcripts for the interview, I looked at some airline sites and says nothing, cause I did'nt do so well in math and physics and some literature (if I even spelled that right) classes. Thanks

Some do, some don't. Generally, if they require a 4 year degree they will want to see an official copy. I would always bring a certified/sealed copy to any interview, just in case. Add it to your interview essentials binder.

I've always put on the resume under education
"transcripts available upon request"
That way they know up front they can ask for them and I'll provide them. I've never been asked for them.

I personally think it's rediculous. Especially high school transcripts.

Just got my interview packet from SWA. They want to see transcripts of your highest education (degree) completed. I think they are just looking for verification of education level. Transcripts are a lot harder to fake than a diploma, is my guess.

UPS asked me for my undergrad/grad transcripts and my logbooks. During the 45 minute HR interview, all five of my logbooks were scrutinized and so were my transcripts. I even had to field questions about flights and particular grades.

In addition, I was asked to supply a copy of my degrees, which were framed. So I had to take a digital picture than print it out. But the effort was worth the reward !!

Just one man's experience.
