Mesabah,

This is a Delta hiring news thread. Give it a rest. Move your fight to the latest and greatest.

Moderators, please move the nonsense to its own thread so the new hires have a place to exchange information.

If anyone has interviewed recently please pm me. I'd like to see how the process compares to when I interviewed in '07. I'm trying to help a friend study for a potential interview. Thanks.

I do agree that many colleges have become money factories to suck mommy and daddy's money. I don't believe, though, that there's any substitution for a solid academic background. But I'm a pilot, what do I know?
Totally disagree with you Buzz. The best pilot I have ever flown with at Delta has NO college degree. I also know a writer of technical manuals who has no college degree, who is in great demand. A good friend of mine has been wildly successful as an entrepreneur with no degree.

I don't believe that having a college degree has ANY effect on being an airline pilot.

What do you people not get about this being the "Delta Hiring News" thread? Knock off the ridiculous politicized rants - find another thread or start another thread. We are coming to this thread to get the latest and greatest about Delta Hiring News. Thus the title of the thread. Knock the bs off!

That would, to date, be impossible.

I agree John. But where do you get the political "bs" from? We're talking about a college degree.

In any event, good luck. You'll love it at DAL.

Why get info here? You can join Delta's charity, the Delta Force. There you can speak directly with the people who will hire you. You may even get to meet me, as I've built a few houses with them.

You have no idea what you're talking about. Did Western require degrees?

Republic? Nice try my uninformed friend.

I've actually flown with a small handful of former Republic guys that didn't have a degree.

They are out there.
