How long for the interview call?
 
Hey guys,

So I just threw in my application. Previous CFI/CFII/MEI/135 Cargo. Pretty decent record, besides college. How long does it take to get a interview call? Just curious for planning purposes.

Thanks

1337pilot 07-08-2018 11:25 AM

Anywhere from 5 minutes to a week or so from what I've heard. Depends how desparate they are and if you meet whatever qualifications they're looking for at the time. Good luck!

Stirrin 07-08-2018 05:10 PM

Awesome, thanks for the quick response!

Do you perhaps have your phone in airplane mode?

You're gonna have to change that....:D

Are interview calls really that fast in response? I sent in an application Thursday, now it's the weekend so I'm not expecting a response until the coming week.

Assuming the call comes this week, what is the timeline like for a class date?

Friend of mine interviews this last week. He was given an October class. Better than winter or 2019 which was the timeline 2 Monthes ago

TheNotoriousPIC 07-14-2018 02:52 PM

Yeah I would gladly take an october class, maybe take up a hobby in the meantime and a part time job for expenses. 2019 class date means I have to go elsewhere.

Sent in my Application in April and I have 135 experience. Still haven't gotten a call back yet.

Took them 3 days to email me about choosing a time for the phone interview and then phoned me the following day after the phone interview for the in face interview in MSP.

bscott58d 07-23-2018 03:36 PM

Applied this past Saturday, got called today and did my phone interview. In person in a week or two(I need to confirm date). Pretty laid back but professional on Endeavors side so far

jaxsurf 07-24-2018 05:31 AM

Hmmm, I applied on 15 July and still have not heard anything back... mil/fighter guy.

Most of the office based recruiters are out at Oshkosh this week; they'll be in touch shortly.
PM me if you don't hear back by the end of next week

Remember
 
When you interview you are interviewing them as well. Ask questions!

Reserve in New York will be a year for new hires. New York is expensive and you are responsible for two airports. Still no Lyft account we’ve been told is coming. Wait until you have to sit in the LGA crewroom for eight hours from 5am and not get to fly.

Keep in mind all these announcements can and will change. History has a way of repeating itself ie; Comair and Express Jet.

The 175 rumor has been around for years. The day before they were coming they were cancelled.

I think the big D pilots, as other major airlines, are getting tired of all these regional jets flying around. As contracts come up, those pilots will have a bigger say in regional jet operations.

Honestly, if the D is your goal you may be better off on the outside. IMHO, the propel project tells us what the D thinks of us but that’s maybe just me. Lots of victims of the DGI and SSP.

Only three companies have a guaranteed flow AND it’s working fine. I’d go to one of those first then the Big U regionals.

No, EDV is not the worst but, it just doesn’t offer what others do. The pay scales are ok but they needed to pay that to keep people in NY.
50$ an hour x 75 is low for NY.

In summary, if you’re going to fly for the regionals get the most you can out of it. You don’t have to stay at an AA wholly owned but you will get a flow if you do.

Best of luck to all.

I’m not sure if you have any idea what you’re talking about or just sour grapes. A new hire will not spend a year on rsv in NY. The goal is to hire 60 pilots a month. Delta is going to replace RJ’s in NY with new cs100’s.

The Union is meeting with Delta about guaranteed career progression. Pay and QOL are much better at Endeavor than other wholly owned. 1st year pay is $60k.

How do you know how happy AA is with their flows, you don’t.

Double no’s are not victims they were unlucky, possibly Unprepared or have your attitude.

If you are so unhappy here, why don't you just go to one of the AA WO and get your flow. From your posts its seems like you have been on property no longer than 1.5 years so you haven't been here that long.

EDV is a great place to work. We actually have good management and are treated very well. Yes some things need improvement AKA crew scheduling during a IROP but overall this is a awesome place to be with great co workers.

Everyone knows NY is expensive and most people don't live there. Everyone coming to EDV knows that NYC is what they will get for a base. Reserve times have creeped up but we are also hiring 50+ pilots a month again.

bscott58d 07-24-2018 10:48 AM

As someone looking to leave a WO for Republic or Endeavor I can tell you all there are issues at the WO that negate the flow. If you’re waiting a full 6-7 for your number to come up then ok, but I why put your ultimate career goals in that kind of basket instead flow being th backup plan?
When I interviewed with Republic a few days ago even their HR had praise for Endeavor. That says a lot IMO

Boats and Hos 07-24-2018 11:02 AM

Hmmm
 
So, offer a different perspective or opinion and get personally attacked. I am not sour nor do I have a bad attitude. I disagree with some things on here but have not made it personal. So thank you Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.

We are not hiring 60+ a month yet.
We do not have a flow.
We do not have 175s.
New Hires will be on Reserve for a year.
We simply cannot handle massive expansion. Its why we slowed in the first place

Yes, EDV is an ok place to work but it's still a regional.

Now disagree/agree but stop with the personal attacks, it's unbecoming!

Jecain7 07-24-2018 11:31 AM

life at the WO's isn't all that great as someone said above. Flow works if you're less than 2 years away. For everyone else its a huge question mark.

Army helicopters here. I followed my app up with a VM to recruiting, that prob helped a ton. That or they know you fighter jockeys can’t fit that big head/ ego into normal spaces? Lol 😂😂
Seriously though give them a call and good luck.

Seriously apply to a AA WO and tell
Us how it is. I’m basically begging you. So do that, come back and tell us how awesome it is. Please. Do it. I’ll Even pay for your expenses to go interview there. Seriously



Otherwise quit being a pilot, find a office job because your a 40 year old whiner.

Endeavor is not a perfect Company but being a expat from another regional myself , it’s a great company whose given me a fantastic oppurtunity I wouldn’t have gotten at my last airline.

We get it, you’re life sucks. But for most of us, they know they’re getting into

1) Correct, we are not hiring 60+ a month, we are hiring 50+ a month. Yes I do know this as I have a few friends in recruitment who have confirmed class sizes of 25 people with 2 classes a month.
2) We never had a flow, always had the DGI so I have no clue why this is some negative thing. Do we as a pilot group want something better, absolutely but the DGI was always in place and you knew that coming in.
3) Who cares that we don't have 175s. Is that our growth plan who knows, maybe it is all CRJs but who cares there is obvious growth plans for us. There would be no reason to be ramping up hiring again and hiring 26 new FTIs if we were not getting airplanes.
4)Reserve time is creeping up right now but still has not hit 1 year in NYC. Reserve time in ATL/MSP definitely is over 1 year. DTW seems to change every month. Yes it is longer than it previously was.
5) We can handle a lot more growth than you probably think. Recruiting is not a problem here and training would be the only backup which can handle roughly 60 a month as it stands today, if they really want us to grow faster all we need is more sims to do it.

I agree we are just a regional, but for just being a regional we are treated extremely well and get paid very well. No we are not Delta and people need to stop thinking we are Delta, not specific to you or if you think that but so many people run around thinking they are Delta. We are Endeavor and we have a great company culture here.

What to expect from the phone interview? Nothing about it on interview prep websites.

It goes mainly like,
Recruiter Roleplay
“does this person have a pulse, can they hold a convo for 5 minutes when telling me about their history, do they have the amount of hours, if not when will you hit your hours, cool bro I’ll send you an email right now and about a week before your in person interview you’ll receive an email with travel arrangements”

dera 08-05-2018 08:13 PM

Just a recent timeline. 21 days from application to email asking to set up a phone interview.

So HR type questions but maybe not TMAAT stuff. No technical questions from the gouge?

Not on the phone. It's literally just a screen to make sure you're qualified to come interview

Yep, phone call goes through your work history for the past 7 years, asks about the usual checkride busts etc, your hours, how many are you flying now and total past 12 months, and then you schedule an in-person interview. As of today, they are scheduling for "any day is open in September".

bscott58d 08-08-2018 12:44 PM

Study the gouge and just be yourself for the actual interview and you’ll be fine. Did mine today and left with a CJO. Great overall experience now just have decide between here and YX.
Only problem is having to constantly use the bathroom now because I over hydrated thinking I would get stuck not being able to provide a sample for the drug screen. 😂😩😳

Did it today but wouldn’t surprise me. At least then I won’t be on a plane a few hours later. 😂😂

Just in case anybody is wondering, it was approximately 3 weeks from applying to the phone interview at this point. Much of it has to do with recent recruiting events from what I understand. In person interview dates are booked up through the second week of September.
