Airline Pilot Central Forums - DL Hiring: New Process

Yeah, but it’s al B S. AA and UAL guys think we are not as cool as them, same way here about them. At the end of the day, we are all pilots. Just go to wherever you want/like/easier drive or commutability.

Good luck, DAL instructors are great and want you to succeed! :)

Can I expect the same here at Delta , or is it the miserable dread annual berating by a head strong group. I’m having a hard time getting a feel for the culture . Love the product , but fresh off 20 yrs AF to airlines and just want to make a good call.

+1 to the gentlemanly/friendly atmosphere. Coming from the AF, you will feel almost coddled here by comparison. This should not be a discriminator for your decision, at all. Good luck.

Just received the initial assessment email. Has anyone done this from a phone or tablet? Great timing with vacation.

That's less than ideal. There's a section which has you "flying" through a tube. I do believe it can be done on a tablet, but not sure. Doubt it'd work well on a phone. Definitely easier on a computer. My answer wasn't very definitive/helpful, sorry.

Tablet is fine, laptop is better, in my opinion. Most definitely do not use your phone.

That’s the thing, I thought my interaction with the psych went well, but she seemed stone cold like Leonard’s mom from Big Bang Theory.

Oh boy... As someone who has never talked to a shrink before, what is asked or how does this part of the interview go? I haven't seen any posts detailing this

tell me about yourself.
tell me the most traumatic thing that happened in your childhood. How did you deal with it?
What is your greatest weakness? (Had to swing a couple of times at that one)

Do you do drugs? Would you say alcohol has affected your personal or professional life?
etc

Good to know, thank you! They probably heard every possible answer to the greatest weakness already that might be the tougher one if you had a few tries at it
