OK fellas, so I just finally completed my app and my resume, had it checked several times (Checked and Set, great inputs), uploaded and double checked everything, really excited to be in a spot to do this and so I published it... and it was pretty anticlimactic. Not to say I was expecting fireworks, but when I pushed my Delta app, at least I got an email confirming they got it. Even the big bumbling Air Force machine sent me an email approving my retirement request.

Is that standard, no email or any confirmation other than changing the radio button from "draft" to "publish" and then saving that page?

Thanks!

Yeah. That’s what happened with me. No confirmation but got an invite within 2 months of applying. Good luck

Thanks. Do you mind me asking how far out from your availability you were when you received the interview invite? Anyone else have input on this? Obviously nothing is a sure thing, but I'm trying to gauge how close I might be with 100/12 recency with my current availability date.

This may he the wrong thread but I just started at a regional. I would like to get a headstart and start getting some ideas for how to give myself the best chance to get to FedEx eventually. Check pilot, sim instructor, hell even throwing boxes part time. I'm 22 so I have time. Just want to make it to Memphis.

Stay out of trouble. Stay off social media. Get your hours. And yes to all that other stuff.

Stay off social media?

I don’t think that’s disqualifying

Depends on what you put there. The urge to be stupid is strong in some folks. Combined that with the urge to publicly post to say "Look at me, I'm a pilot!!" and it can be a huge dis-qualifier.

Thanks for the info! Not putting idiotic stuff on social media is pretty good life advice in general😂. Also, is having time at another smaller cargo company preferred or just sticking at a regional long enough to pick up extra responsibilities for a better resume?
