I think AK and the crew is being overly optimistic to keep people on the string. Guys are getting multiple offers these days.
I suppose a few have multiple offers. The failed TA has left hiring in perhaps some murky waters. I don't think anyone is being overly optimistic at Dal whether they wait or not. They keep interviewing and if they lose a few to other companies, so be it. Make no mistake though, 4th floor has a big ego.

Guys -

I've got a Delta interview date of 29-30 Sep. I'm drowning in gouge; I've got so much to read through (and, according to this website a lot of it is wrong) I don't know where to begin. One single file a friend sent me via DropBox was almost 150 pages, and there were probably 100 files total.

Any advice from those who got the CJO????

Read through the majority of the gouge. If you find something that conflicts with other gouge, or doesn't look right....look it up.
Do ECIC for interview prep. Don't overlook the Cog Test. Most people bust Cog or interview.

Lumosity for overall mental agility on the cog tests. A little bit each day helped train the brain. For the stick figure test I printed the guys out 6 to a sheet and turned them into flash cards to practice with which hand the flag is in.

Happy Neuron has the actual test for the reverse number recall. I practiced it and what worked for me was to mentally repeat the numbers in the entry order until I entered them. So if there were four numbers shown to repeat back such as 8573 I would repeat 8 until it showed the number 5 and I would repeat 58 until it showed the 7... and so on.

Mental math for pilots, everything explained to the professional pilot were great books and I made flash cards from info on there. I used the Updated gouge with blue and yellow highlights to focus on subjects. Also I put all the formulas on flash cards to remember them the I would practice using the formulas while flying if I wasn't otherwise busy to see if I could do it correctly. That made it seem easier on game day.

Good luck

I'm going to concur with luminosity. Buy the full subscription for the months leading up to your interview.

Interview prep. If you do one of the popular ones (emerald Coast, aerocrew) they will have goodies to help you out with the cog test as well. Don't skimp and not do prep. Even if you're good at interviewing.

The gouge is good, but take it for face value. There are errors but I think it's mostly good. Find the answers yourself. There is a ton of gouge out there, but it's mostly repetitive. Not all the questions are on the gouge anyway. You'll feel stupid after the test.

Be honest in the interview. Don't tell them what you think they want to hear, tell them what you would actually do. Same for the MMPI. Be more honest than you think you should be.

I prepped on and off for years and I still felt like I could have done more. You just have to go into it feeling confident and you'll do fine. Good luck.

Only 7 had interviews today? That seems low.

I made the corrections with the help of a recent Delta Hire. Fingers and toes crossed.

Cheers
FYI, after I made my corrections back in November '14, I never heard anything again until they contacted me for an interview in March '15. Never got word correction were received or that they were acceptable. Good Luck!!

I'm hoping for late September, expecting October, and prepared for November
FYI, I'm a 30 April CJO. I'll be ecstatic if I class up in October. Got an email fro AK today projecting more delays due to Down sims and commitments to "Flow agreements". I was expecting Oct BEFORE word on down sims. Be prepared for a 6 month pool, then you can be pleasantly surprised if it's shorter. Need short term work? PM me for an invite to Uber/Lyft. Good luck!!
