I applied for DL and had an internal referral. I received a fix it email from DL about 5 weeks later and did what was required at that time and emailed them back to tell them I completed it. This was a few weeks ago and I am trying to get a feel for the time lag from fix it email to interview invite with the huge volume they are dealing with plus the holidays. With the large lag from conditional job offer to training that I have seen on the Poole thread I am curious if anyone has details on the timing for this? Has interviewing slowed to shrink the backlog?

I'm in your boat, I got the fix it email back in November and made the changes. Who did you email back to let them know that it was corrected?

I just replied to the fix it email request itself. I honesty have no clue if I was supposed to or not but I felt strange not replying saying I fixed what they asked for.

I got the fix it email in Dec 2012 about a work gap and I was never able to locate any gaps between birth and that day. I cleaned up a few dates as best I could and emailed them back thanking them and saying I feel I had corrected the error. Still crickets...

Fix it email to interview email-->18 months for me. I improved my qualifications a fair amount and had emails sent to pilot selection before I got the interview email.

From what I can tell, the fix it means your app got scored, and that's about it. That's a step in the right direction though!

Fix-it email came March 2014. Fixed it. No signs of life yet...

Fix it email late 2012 for education and military assignments. Fixed it, never heard back.

I'm sure it goes without saying but I'll say it anyway. It's very important to continue to update your application on a regular basis to show that you're still actively engaged, even after you've made the corrections from the fix-it email. Even if you're only adding an hour of flight time or adding a couple words to a duty description for a job, do it. Every couple weeks at a min. Apps that haven't been updated recently get skipped, or so we were told. And it sucks but also keep the Class 1 physical up to date or you probably won't even get looked at again. Finally, if you know a couple pilots already at DAL, have one of them send the HR-direct internal recommendation email (there are specific instructions on how they're supposed to do this) on a rotating basis every few months to keep your application in the 'to be scored' pile.

For the longest time I haven't been able to get a straight answer on this. Is it one time per year PERIOD your app can be reviewed via a flight ops rec, or is it once per year per recommender? I've heard both, and more recently it's been that it can only be pulled once per year regardless of how many pilots send an internal rec, per AK through a friend. If this is the case, spacing them out every few months won't do anything to get your app pulled.

So it sounds like it can be as short as 4-6 weeks to never...
I am hoping its 6-10 weeks as that's the range I am in....
