Hi all, I just saw the meet the chiefs event posted for next month. I’m about to submit my app right now and just wanna know if I will be even close to competitive for when I show up to the event.

I have 0 121 busts, about 70 hours in the 175 and a 4 year degree and 1590 TT

Is this enough to get looked at? Or am I still about 100-300 hours away from getting taken serious.

Thanks!

Put your app in, and attend the MTC. You might just get the invite.

Would going to a MTC event be beneficial if you have already received an interview invite?

Probably not. The whole point is to attempt to get an interview invite and a shoe in with the company. You should prep for the interview and do as well as you can. You should be fine.

I can confirm the exact opposite.

An FO friend of mine, whom I recommended come here, did. He kept his apps updated and got interview calls from both UA and AA. Went the UA interview and he said it essentially wasn’t an interview. They told him point blank that due to having his type and being ex-mil, he was hired. Whole interview process lasted a couple of hours which included a tour, a brief HR/pilot Q/A and lunch. He was done by 1pm.

Im told the AA interview is a little more involved but not much.

It might tip the scale in your direction during the “why Frontier?” And “How do we know you won’t leave for Delta or United in a year?” discussions.

If you have good answers for those, then it might not matter a ton. But it certainly wouldn’t hurt, regardless.

I’ve been wondering if Legacies would basically start giving CJO’s to clean LCC candidates. Probably not far off..

Hey all, curious to see how long it took to hear anything back after initial application. Haven’t gone to a MTC or any conference yet.

121 FO
2600TT
1000ME Turbine
500 135 ME PIC
No degree

Also curious if anyone used application/resume review while applying with Frontier.

Would love to make Frontier my last stop and get back down to Florida!
