Arnie brought me into hiring before you showed up here. I think I know what I'm talking about. Anyway back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Because I knew it would trigger you. It's too easy. See, perfect example. You are just a plain antagonist to me on here. Again, what did I post that was wrong for jungle, or any other prospective, to ignore what I posted? Please tell us. Anyway, let's get to back on topic before Scoop yells at us again.

From the recruiting department regarding the 'top tier' emails.

'Everyone that receives an application review gets a letter to inform them of their status. There are quite a lot of applications being reviewed. Unfortunately it is not a first in first out process as there are many factors to be considered. I tell everyone, it's great that you are competitive and have been advised so that you can start preparing for your interview, so just be patient and we will get to your invitation as soon as possible.'

Big hint in there. Don't wait for the invite to start prepping. Prep for the Cut-E, too. Top tier means it's coming.

IF jungle had said "i must have not impressed the 757/737/320 guy" would you guys have still taken it the way you took it? I've met quite a few DL pilots who's inferiority complex and ego would never allow them to touch the 717.

So by ASSuming he was the only 717 pilot I may have made an a$$ of myself. It stings to not be accepted but I’m like a hair in a biscuit. I’ll just keep trying, wear them down, until they love me.
don’t know you
don’t know the 717 guy
don’t know the situation.

just letting you know how your post came across.

if you’re coming across that way in writing … imagine how you’re coming across in person. Intentionally or otherwise.

interview prep can help you with this.

Most likely they saw something in the way you acted, spoke that highlighted you. I can speak with certainty as being a former hiring team member - we can see it. We see thousands of people every year. We can spot it very quickly in the person to person interview.

I'm glad they vetted you there. Good news for you is all the majors are hiring like gangbusters. Pro tip - be humble.
to all new hires, this troll does not in any way reflect the good folks out there on the line. I have had 3 bad interactions in 8 years of flying here.

to the op, the part about the biscuits makes up for any perceived lack of humility (of which i did not pick up on) i hope you land here but wherever it is itll be great.

HK you are a jerk.

if you meet one a-hole they were an a-hole, if everyone you met was an a-hole its you

guess what drum….its you


Edit:**** oooff you beat me to it (sts), but a good dogpile may incur some self reflection

you should clarify to read before scoop yells at “me” again cause im not a nice human and lack any semblance of self awareness or self control

I guess at least he didn’t say he must have not impressed the DC9-10 guy 😂😂.

the tests currently used, just as stated in a previous post, are:

-Spatial orientation (relative bearing questions)
-Reaction speed (click when two shapes match)
-Deductive logical thinking (sudoku, 4 and 5 grids)
-Monitoring ability (moving dots)
-Multi-tasking capability (3 tasks at once- math, finding duplicate shapes, and a slider to avoid a crash)
-Auditory comprehension (audio clips of clearances in different accents)
-Complex control (tunnel flight)
-Work-related behavior (standard personality test)

unlike what others said, i did find the sudoku tests to be a bit easier than I was practicing for. medium to hard difficulty on most pratice sites.
Man, are they hiring people to be line pilots or for missions to Mars ? Sounds like way too much unnecessary bunk to me . Whatever happened to the good ole days when the first day interview was usually a just get to know you type day and the second day they threw ya into the 727 or DC9 sim for a couple steep turns and holds and come back in for an ILS ?
