Anyone get a Norwegian interview?

It would seem weird to me that Fedex would turn those away with that much experience, but I've heard it from several people there.
I can't get an answer though as to how the high time people there can upgrade or switch to a new aircraft if they've crossed the "untrainable" line.

Screening in MIA 787
After completing the online tests in October 2016 I was invited last month to the FO 787 Screening. The screening was professional and straight forward. Just have to study the provided briefing packet, that's it. I was over studying with ATP 121 questions.
Interview: Wanted to know history, work ethic, customer service. Norwegian information.
Sim: 777 sim. NPF and PF. Did what was in the briefing package. Asked for throttle settings and FMS information and switchology as I was not typed and had to look around for buttons.

I love that this is its own thread and I love the relentless savagery against those actually trying to join this outfit! What do you expect when you ask a forum of mostly American legacy and regional pilots about trying to join an organization that seeks to cheat its way into destroying the US airline industry?

No one cares.

While I'm on the fence of supporting the legacies and insuring we all have future jobs, I do find the trolling of these poor guys a bit misdirected.
How come we don't direct our anger more at the elected officials? The previous and current admin both seem happy to sell the pilots out. The guys looking for the jobs are just out for themselves like all pilots. You're not going to change that by berating them.
Maybe I'm a bit fatalistic, but it's a losing battle. The DOT and our "elected" officials will always opt to sell Boeing aircraft over protecting a group of opportunistic and disjointed workers. Hell, robots will do our job anyway in 30 years probably. Time to learn some new skills.
