Mind you I've got this little thing on my wall from TPS, so I might be a bit more skilled than your average RJ driver and can probably think for at least 10 of us, versus your 2 dimensional thought processes. I rarely hand fly anymore as the guy sitting next to me often struggles with working the MCP and radios simultaneously. I kick on George now most of the time once we get the flaps retracted (and leave him on until about 1000 agl) 'casue now all they have to do is struggle with the comms. I'll fly the jet with george. Just my observations. |
Soooo, have to ask. Are they still doing that humiliating "open the college transcripts in front of us and explain why you didn't have a 3.5 or higher GPA" thing?

Full time student with classes starting at 0800, driving pizzas until 0200, and reserve military, and dealing with a sibling with terminal brain cancer 1800 miles away. Didn't leave much time nor energy to excel at grades. But 7 type schools later and God knows how many recurrents all passed.....so the GPA thing is such a fallacy. HR seems to be a little full of themselves.

Anyone else still thinking about the “Asteroids” comment previously? All I can think about is whatever you do, don’t make the ship move!
And also, nobody applying today has ever played that game. Sad. |

They just want to see if you get all defensive and huffy like you seem to be doing here. In the interview just act humble, accept that life isn't fair, and tell them why you were struggling in school. All they're looking for is honesty and ownership of your grades. You'll be fine. Trust me, I had plenty of sub par grades in my transcript.
This is spot on. I truly think the HR portion is an exercise in humility and basically making sure they don’t hire people like the guy who is trolling on here. That attitude would have never made it past the interview. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
