Friend got email invite and 12 June interview today

 

Thanks! lots of ATL should make people happy

 

Wow I hope he's been studying, that's pretty tight. took me almost 2 months of studying to feel good about the interview. PM me if he needs a little help prepping.

 

The specifics of that are held pretty closely and only the HR folks and a few others know. The obvious things that come to mind are LORs (all you need is one) 121 PIC time, heavy time, qualifications (LCA etc), military time etc. What I do know though is that there are three tiers. A fix it letter does not mean that you will be called but only that your application was reviewed and put into one of the tiers.

So to be clear if your application was reviewed and placed into the most competitive tier you will get a call pretty quickly.

If your application was reviewed and placed into the least competitive tier you will be at the back of the list.

There are thousands of applications on file. The good thing about the "fix-it" e-mail is that your application was reviewed. I am not sure if your application can be scored into one of the three tiers until you make your corrections as requested.

Hope this answers some of your questions.

Good Luck!

Very insightful. Thank you.

 

This is why I don't use electronic application services when I hire someone for a job. You actually wind up screening out the best candidates because the computer only shows the numbers. A physical resume, not only what it says on it, but the way it is put together, says a lot more about the candidate than AirlineApps, or the like, ever could.

 

Just recieved the fixit email regarding job history. Found the error was a 2 day window inbetween jobs. I've printed it out and gone over it so many times it was frustrating.
In the fixit email they want an accounting of "ALL periods of time following high school graduation must be accounted for with either an education entry or an employment record." Totally missed this in airline apps.
I was working off the assumption that it was all education and last 10 years of employment. Anyone else miss this little nugget?

 

Isn't this what the Unemployment section is for? Very few graduate high school and then immediately start college in a matter of days. I had the whole summer off (unemployed) and thus noted that in the Unemployment section.

 

Any idea how far out from the date you list as your date available that Delta is reviewing your app and sending invites?

 

There were active duty people interviewing with availability dates still months out.

btw Wollac, is N901GX still flying? I cant believe I flew that thing. For those that don't know, its the prototype Global Express, first one ever built. We affectionately called her "snowball." We used to wrap ourselves in blankets on those 10 hour flights because even with the temp controls all the way up we couldn't get the cabin to stay warm.
