Is it just me, or does anyone else think this email is totally unnecessary and unprofessional? Why can't they just leave out the part of "you are not what we are looking for" and instead just say "we will be reviewing your application". This guy has over 8000 hours and he is not qualified to fly an encore?! Give me a F'N break. At least they invite you to visit their website, where you can apply for a secretary job.

I'd rather have a definite no, than a "reviewing your application" which doesn't put any closure on the issue.

They're not hiring pilots. They are hiring customer service reps that can fly airplanes.

Pretty much every pilot who works here, yes.

I interviewed at the end of April and just got the official call last Tuesday, almost 4 months. Was told to expect another 5 weeks for an indoc start date.

I know it's frustrating guys but the interview isn't about finding out who's most qualified to fly an airplane (I think most of us have figured that part out by now); it's about who can best represent the company and provide a superior service to our customers while also demonstrating excellent airmanship and CRM skills.
All of us are qualified to fly an Encore, just as much as all of us can fly a 747- we're trained specifically for one or the other. It's the big picture you need to look at and paint yourself in the best light for the mission we do here. Good luck and don't let the letter get your hopes down.

Still doesn't give an excuse why a company with supposedly the best customer service possible now has one of the worst pilot recruiting departments (aka "talent acquisition") in the industry right now, their revamping of the system needs to start showing progress. It really needs to go back to what it was two years ago, the people who have decided to change things have really messed it up.

I haven't seen such a crock of crap in years. From the numerous posts of extremely qualified pilots getting a negative response it would appear they are hiring based on a lack of experience.
