In the meantime, don't become a socialized human being while becoming angry at everyone that didn't do exactly what you did. Then get really mad when you don't get hired at a mainline carrier because you're a troll that no one wants to associate with.

So it takes an expensive 4 year (liberal arts I assume) big name college to become “socialized”?

That’s what Sailing did, and he is an A330 Captain that can’t spell or punctuate a sentence to save his life, can’t use “an” instead of “a” when appropriate.

I’m sorry, Sailing. I know your heart is in the right place.

I just re-read your post, you actually used “than” instead of “then”...you slick SOB, you’re making progress. Well done, Sir.

I can't tell if you're joking or if you're a "degree from a big four-year school is the only way to go" snob or not.

Impossible to tell. I had one back in March and 30 days after my internal rec i got a "fix it" email. I also posted the same question. The replies I got ranged from 1 month to never ever heard anything again. Had to step back and reevaluate. If it was an internal recommendation then it was an obligatory pull and doesn't mean I scored well enough necessarily to be pulled. What I WISH I had done was had a application review service go over my application prior to having the internal send it in to be pulled. Not sure if having done so would have resulted in an interview...but maybe it would have had I not needed to "fix" something.
I since then have had a service help me get the application tip top.

With that said does anyone know the required time you must wait to have another internal application pull? Is there one? I've heard none, 6 months, and one year.

Get one internal Rec every 12 months. Even if you have multiple people they will only pull once a year. Unless there is a major change that happened.

For many of us, the word should be “immunized”.

Upon reflection I should have made that a statement and not a question.

So people who are getting called now are being put on a wait list for interview dates. Any rumors, inside info, speculation on when those dates might be?
