Guys, sorry if it has been discussed before. How many letters of rec are too many? I have 8, four internal, one from a present company check airman and present company instructor, and two retired Delta. I have another friend who is a captain at Delta willing to help also, but I wasn't sure what the magic number was or is. Thanks

Not sure if there is a "too many" but I think 1 internal rec gives you as much credit in getting the interview call as many more recs.
I would imagine a "bunch" of internal recs could possibly help out in the actual interview but either way I think you are set.
Good luck

I had a resume but nobody asked for one, and all the paperwork they collected at the beginning of the day they handed back at the end of the day. The only thing they kept was the copy of the application that I signed.
I think the venue to mention volunteer work and outside interests is when they start off with, "tell us about your career since high school," or however it's worded. You can work those things in along the way no problem.

Agreed…I'd have one with you, but you likely won't need it. I had a few other things that I pulled out of my folder when certain questions came up. I have written a few articles in technical journals, had a couple pretty cool letters for things I had done, etc. When I mentioned them, I would pull out the applicable thing and the guys would pass it around and ask me questions about it. It killed time that they could ask other questions, and gave me a chance to answer questions that I was in control of. If you have stuff like that, bring it and try to get it on the table!
Good luck!
