I have found my Animal Science degree to be quite valuable on long flights when conversation begins to lag.

The PDF that you'll find has the email address as well as the instructions for what you're asking about.
Excellent information... Thank You.

So... Is it true that there is a nipple inside a Kangaroo pouch?

They're real and they're spectacular!

I believe the good people in the hiring department try to have an app scored within a month of the email being sent, but any timeline for invites after that is an X factor. TYIA!
10-12 weeks.

I'm sure this has been answered in here but I don't really feel like digging through months and months of posts. How current does Delta expect you to be to be competitive? I have heard 100 hrs in the last year?

I'm a ex-C-17 dude with over 1000 PIC and 2500 total. I'm 5 years non-current, got picked up by SkyWest and am about to enter into IOE, which will get me about 50 hrs of 121 flying in the E175. I'm trying to determine when to have one of my internal references send in a rec to HR. If that floats my app to the top for another look I don't want to score to low and waste the opportunity and have to wait another year. Delta is where I want to be.

So just curious, does Delta recognize on line undergrad degrees for pilot hiring purposes. I have a friend who is telling his kid that online degrees have the same weight as traditional undergrad degrees in the eyes of all employers. I actually have know idea.

Thanks

from what I understand, certain universities (University of North Dakota, Purdue, Embry Riddle) get higher points for the app than other universities. That being said, I think a degree is a degree.

And Middle TN State for sure. My guess is Southern Illinois, too.
