Started on Tuesday with the weekend off. Finished up on Thursday afternoon, as there was class the day after the winging event. I showed up Monday which accounts for my math error… Apologies.

I just noticed this morning after 13 days, emailed per your suggestion, and a couple hours later had an email saying they made a note and will keep the invite open for a few more days. Now to call and schedule.

Got a TBNT before taking the assessment. Was curious if this has happened to anyone else or anyone you know of. It was my understanding that TBNTs were usually sent out after an unsuccessful assessment attempt, and that applicants who DAL was not interested in simply didn't hear back. I do meet hiring minimums, current regional CA. Have not had a meet and greet yet. I was never invited to take the assessment, junk mail thoroughly checked. All good if this is par for the course, just curious about the experience of others. TIA

Your understanding is correct as far as I’m aware. Maybe an issue with the website?

You may want to reach out to Delta Pilot Recruiting on Facebook, they’re usually very responsive.

Just got the Delta invite to interview...wondering how far out they are scheduling interviews? Any insights? I'd like to push it out as far as possible to allow for max prep. And best/most recommended prep program?...thanks.

You’re going to have 1-2 months. A month is plenty, especially considering there will be 200 hired above you every month you delay. Id avoid pushing it back if you can, but That’s just me. Good luck.

*It’s not a difficult interview. Be social, be polite, and do a month of the prep company if you’re so inclined. Don’t overthink it. Seniority rules..

Default Any luck after assessment re-take

Hello, anyone here who got TBNT after assessment online and to wait 6 months, take it again and actually DID get invited for interview? Seems like the ones I read recently have gotten a TBNT again.

6 weeks from invite to interview to earliest interview opportunity. YMMV!

Can anyone give advice on this dilemma? I got the interview invite and as per the instructions have gotten all of my official school transcripts that I didn't have and hadn't thought about in decades (I'm old). I filled out my app from memory and apparently memory didn't serve. In looking at my transcripts my dates are wrong. I've heard that Delta is a stickler for dates matching and the interview invite says not to make any significant changes to the app after receiving the invitation. Dont want to show up with dates not matching...Thoughts?

IMO that's not too significant of a change, I stressed about something similar that I edited after invite that wasn't even brought up. Might want to email pilot recruiting and give a heads up that way you're proactive, but I think that's understandable.

Others here know better than I
