I"m not sure of your exact situation, but if you're converted that month, then your schedule should show NQAT prior to the training. I would follow-up with scheduling, otherwise they will expect you to be flying the trip. It happened to me.

As others have posted they waited until to late to start training. They posted initially how much lead time they needed to start the program and did not follow their own calculations. Why they waited is another question. The delivery dates actually got moved up a bit and they had a higher rate of attrition. There was some talk we wanted out of the 350 completely so perhaps they were waiting for guidance on if we were even going to get the aircraft.

Degree Question
Hey guys, new to the Delta forum so I apologize if this has been addressed.
I was just wondering if Delta still takes into consideration how long you took to finish your 4 year degree, what school you went to, and what your GPA was? I was told that some people don’t get called because it took them 6 years to finish their bachelors. Also a guy with a GPA of 2.9 in mechanical engineering weighs more than a guy with a GPA of 3.5 in creative writing. Any truth to this? Thanks for the help everyone! |

Truth to all of that. Your key words, though, are "some people". There have been numerous exceptions to all of Delta's general hiring practices. Delta considers the whole app / whole person, and is perhaps one of very few airlines who manually review and score their applications. There is no computer screening the thousands of apps as is done elsewhere.
I only have 1.5 years left on my bachelors, but will focus on instructing and thus taking one or two classes a semester through instructing and flying for a regional. This would extend 1.5 years to possible 3-ish years. So I’d spend a total of 5 years on a bachelors in supervision and management. Wouldn’t want that extra year to keep me from Delta is all |
The dalpa site used to have a tab where you could see your expected seniority year by year. Seems they redesigned the website and hid that link so the russians can't access it. Anybody know where they put it?

I agree that NQAT should be before training. But it’s not on there...as far as I can tell DBMS treats me as if I’m qualified. So when you called scheduling, did the trip drop with pay?
