“Press F12 to Save”

 

To the OP, just get use to it here. Many many things are antiquated requiring unnecessary steps in modern society. But as the corporate slogan goes "That's the Delta difference".

 

We have an app that everybody has on their phones and tablets that is quite handy and getting handier. The release is available 70 minutes before push for domestic flights. If you’re not flying with an antique we usually just make sure that the dead sea scroll that the gate agent flops down on the pedestal is the right one and then keep trucking.

FWIW, you will fit right in here with the level of complaining considering you’re not even on property.

So ah yeah...welcome to Delta, try and smell the roses now and then.

 

Scheduling the interview by phone was painless last year as they answered on the first attempt. So had no issues with that. But it’s definitely bad for the brand if folks can’t get through on the phone now. They should have an online scheduling system.

Scheduling and rescheduling class date was done via email and quite straight forward.

Onboarding links that don’t work straight away are really unnecessarily sent before your first day. Apart from direct deposit info which you want to fill in ASAP to start getting paid and adding your dependents to get them on healthcare and travel, the rest like selection of benefits could wait until you show up. Got a month to make your selections.

Once you get to Indoc it’s very organized and concise. The people in charge of Indoc and the delivery team are fantastic. What every issues you might have, they’ll support you.

The Pilot Assist team accessed through the app is an excellent feature. They reply straight away and will work out whatever issues need working out.

Overall I found the onboarding process much smoother than the previous two companies where I worked.

 

I want to see the dude try to pick up a trip on icrew for the first time… that should be good.

 

Hallelujah!

I don’t read read many non-mandatory company memos.

That’s great news.

 

august for wide release of the app (paper in parallel), October for the end of paper.

 

We"ve become so accustomed to our antiquated tech products, I'm afraid any vision for better user experiences will be resisted.

I for one hope they reorganize the release. It's so haphazard and bulky, and formatted for a paper-scroll. Needs to be trimmed back big time, with the most referenced info consolidated together without bouncing around. All the extra mounds of less demanding info get located in some other further away section where it can be referenced if needed. Since its electronic, broken into sections/tabs via links with an always accesable hamburger button or the like table of contents to quickly get to what you looking for.


Page 1 info: Scheduled Dept/Arr times, Flight time, fuel info, CRZ alt, employee# for ACARS init page, TAF single line of forecast used for ETA, MELs(linked), dispatcher remarks...am I missing something?

 

I grew up with a Commodore 64.
The F1 = Main Menu, F2 = Previous and other MS-DOS-isms of iCrew are quite nostalgic. 😁

I feel for the millennials coming onboard though, who might not find some of the IT as amusing.
