I just started class, and although I didn't have to reschedule anything, my impression of the hiring/interview team is that they genuinely good people who understand that stuff happens. I don't think trying to reschedule will count against you. If they want to interview you, I'm sure they'll work with you. Like I said, good people! Good luck!!!!

FWIW, I tried and they offered me a new date. Unfortunately, that didn’t work either, so they just told me to keep updating my app and it might get pulled again. They were very nice about it, so if the dates work for you, I’m sure it would be no problem.

Hi there, new to the forum here, and congrats. May I ask about how long was the wait before you were selected for interview?


Any recent new hires who's been doing contracts overseas?


Me:

6500TT
2500TPIC (1700 PIC 737)

Currently on Foreign contract PIC. Previously US 121 and 135.



Thanks and fly safe.

Ouch that would suck. She was nice about it, hopefully it works out next time.

For me, it was about 8 months from applying to interview invite. Updated monthly. I consider myself very fortunate to have been called that quickly.

For the military guys who have recently been hired, how long before your date of availability did you get notification for an interview?

Ehh, four months after, not before.

Still, there’s no rhyme nor reason.

I had that happen and now almost 2 years later my app hasn’t been reselected: apparently you become less qualified if you aren’t willing to miss anything important in your life or current job.

Once they get through all of the other qualified pilots that are willing to miss anything important, I'm sure they will get back around to you.
