Back to the thread. The DEC interview was straight forward. No technical just HR questions like why Envoy, why should we hire you. Very laid back. They went through the log books. Make sure your paper work is in order, it slowed up a couple of guys. We had 2 DECs, 1 cadet and 2 helicopter folks interviewing. All but one got the job.
Glad your interview experience was good. Did they give you a class date?

Mine wasn’t strait forward at all. I read where if you had 121 exp that it was only hr. Couldn’t have been farther from the facts. H R part was great. Very professional young aviator out on medical. He extended me professional courtesy. Then they sprang a sim ride on me with no notice. I flew it fine. It’s supposed to be a Beech Baron but this thing flew like ah!t. Would’ve been nice to have had the info prior to interview but whatever. It’s Eagle, I worked there before so I was used to being lied to. Then 2 snowflakes grilled the Sh!t out of me on technical. It was clear I wasn’t welcomed there—even tho I’d been a captain for 5 years at old AMR Eagle. I’d have been 20 years senior to them—if not for 9-11.
But here’s the best part of the interview. When the last snowflake came to give me the “bad news”. I informed him that I already had 2 other job offers with class dates for both.
Hahahahaha hahahahaha hahahahaha
Net result I have a much better offer with 2 other great companies and those dumbasses are still short. Nothing has changed there but the paint job.
I got the last laugh.

We’re you told that you’d have little to no reserve as a DEC in LGA? That’s what I’ve been told but I’ve been trying to figure out how that could be true - I understand it’s a perpetual junior base but...

Some new hire DEC’s have bid to MIA and ORD which also means reserve.
Hope this helps.
