Thanks for the help. So I got the email saying passed the psychological after my interview but did not get my CJO. That's my concern. Will email today to see what's going on. Hopefully it's just normal part of the process.

I also interviewed last week and haven't heard anything yet

After not hearing about the background check for a week I called pilot hiring. He told me that it could take up to two weeks to get the email from Cisive, the background check company. Mine came the next day, and my buddy who interviewed the same day for his on the 9th day. Once you get it, it’s a quick process to submit documents and sign a few forms. They’re seemingly pretty backed up right now, but give them a call if you’re concerned. As for the PARB, I don’t have an answer for how long that’s currently taking.

I don't conceed your point on this which you are basing on false equivalences of varying "grey zone" concepts. You are implying that anyone travelling home on indoc weekend is some rogue rolling the dice with their career. The "blowback" there "might" be "could" come from extreme applications of it. That is the only "grey zone" that even qualifies in this discussion. If you think the company is chomping at the bit to fire NH pilots over flight scheduling meltdowns on indoc weekend I don't know what would convince you otherwise at this point. You've spotted a windmill on the horizon and lowered your lance to run towards it.

I'm also not advocating to "push the boundaries" with extreme cases in theory. Furthermore, the fact that there may be theoretical cases of extremity doesn't remotely imply that the jeopardy you percieve in this is real for the overwhelming vast majority of pilots going home that weekend. If I was a NH reading this and truly wondering if everyone else going home that weekend was some kind of high roller bear trap, I wouldn't take either of our POV's on this; I'd ask the company and the reps directly. If either entity felt it was some high threat event, one or both would say so either directly or so clearly "between the lines" that the message to stay that weekend would be clearly recieved. I don't think that is the case and have never heard of anyone even implying that it could be the case until this thread.

If you are right on this to the extent you believe you are, then the company should keep NH pilots out of CASS/KCM/Travelnet until indoc is complete as well as make it crystal clear that not making it back that Monday morning is a high threat event regardless of the circumstances.

How many pilots in DL's history, if any, have been canned over this? If there were any, how far to the extreme were their travel plans and what other factors were at play? Again, if any.

Exactly. Most went home and there was a scheduling meltdown on Sunday. Most made their primary and a few others used their backup. All the bosses care about is if you have a backup and it goes bad to email them and don't stress. Oh, no KCM until after the IQ 44X

Are you talking about the email you get from Cisive initially or is there a different one you’re talking about?

The one that has the tax questionnaire is from Delta Talent Acquisition and was the first CJO email from the company (sent the morning of the interview). There is a link at the bottom that allows you to accept the offer and another to fill out the tax questionnaire. The second email informs you whether or not you passed the psych portion, reminds you of the vaccine requirement, and tells you to stand by for emails from Cisive. Again, they’re advertising one to two weeks to receive the initial background check email.

I just got the email inviting me to do the assessment but I'm out on a trip for the entire 7 day period. How is it doing the assessment on an iPad? Would it be better to find a library on a layover and use a computer there? Any advice is appreciated, I don’t want to screw this up over something stupid.

I did mine on an IPad. Just get some reps in first using the websites mentioned previously and you’ll be fine. You’ll also have the opportunity to practice prior to each section of the assessment.

I’m talking about the email where you accept the job offer as well as fill out the survey! I did not fill the survey out tell 4 days after the email, by mistake.
