MOD INPUT:

Maybe not but it's a 100% required to get hired at Delta today...which is what this thread is about, so there's no need to debate it any further here.

Default Recent interview invitees

Of those recently contacted for an interview, what were your respective dates of availability? I'm just curious how far out they are looking and what factor the availability date plays in the process as the pool is now empty. I have a "friend" who should be available next July, and from the outside looking in one would assume (I know, that's dangerous) they would target pilots who are available sooner rather than later.

Thanks,
4FF

That's a significant portion of your pilot group who has never been through the Delta interview process.

After a year and not a single person in my squadron getting an interview from Delta (that I know of), 3 of us got emails to interview in the past month. Good to see some movement, since nobody in the unit had heard from anybody else since jan/feb (where we had a couple SWA, a single UAL, and a single US Air.)

The ice dam is breaking Mike. Getting some guys who have been called by 2 carriers. When UAL ramps up this fall its going to get a lot busier.

Guys need to be out or I think a modified "stop loss" could show up within 18 months...

You don't need to lay it out for most of us. Buzz loves to assume and portray things as fact, since it works out in his own mind..somewhat disconnected
