Genuinely shocked if that’s true.

I have no reason to lie.

I know two guys who were turned down by F9, felt absolutely devastated; 2 months later they were in class at United. Things often happen for a reason.

P.S. Lori Clark = fluff? Ha that's funny. She's the definition of substance.

Only a complete douche would say otherwise. I’m batting 100% on two interviews at two companies with Lori. She’s tough and she cares.

Yes the process is the same, I personally recommend just getting the questions off aviationinterviews.com and have someone close to you ask you the questions and give you feedback. You just have to get comfortable expressing yourself, and be able to sell why you want to work for F9. Aviationinterviews will save ya 480 dollars, and I believe it’s just as effective.

I used Aviationinterviews.com and everything was spot on.
I was hired.

Do they send an email invite for an interview? How long does it normally take to get the call if you meet all the minimums?

Just knowing the gouge isnt everything. Some people would benefit from having a stranger ask them the questions and give criticism on ones answers.

With how hard it is to get an interview 8n this industry, you can't over prepare.

I've already posted before about Lori but everything POSITIVE said about her service is 100% correct. I did Emerald Coast and really gained a lot of insight from the audios and videos. When it got to the real person, it was not what I had expected and not very personal. I used Cage-Marshall who did my resume and airlineapps application. Both prep services helped, but in different ways. I do feel I got my money's worth and don't regret using either service.

I went with Lori for the one-on-one interview preparation. Being military, this was new to me and I wasn't going to leave a stone unturned to land the job I wanted. Like one other person stated, I didn't want to look back and say "I wonder if I would have done it, would I have received the CJO?" Lori is extremely knowledgeable in both Frontier and United prep and she will not hold back. Put on thick skin and prepare to work.

Did I go overboard on prep? Maybe, but I got the job I wanted at the airline I wanted to work for so I think it was worth it. To each their own but I consider it all part of the cost of landing the job we've all spend hundreds and thousands of hours preparing to land (pun intended). Best of Luck!

How long does it take to get a interview since applying? Do they email or call you? APC states, they are hiring 300 this year. Any truth to this?

This is what we are being told also. They've hired almost 100 in the last 3 months, so sooner is better to assure you'll be off reserve for the summer hiring slowdown.

I was recently in ground school and they said they’re planning on hiring 400-500 this year. There was no mention of a summer slow down. I also realize that they lie about such things so anything is possible. Just passing along what they’re saying at the school house.

The chief pilot says 300 to 350 every year going forward.

Upgrades every month, except they might take a month or two off during the summer.
