I was stood up for my phone interview. Granted, the email I received from Frontier was returned in the affirmative in that I would happily go over my resume at the allotted time and date. That email was never responded to and I did stay up quite late (I'm in Afghanistan) so that I could speak with whomever. Nobody answered, I left a message, called again, no answer. I also had the wife's number listed on my resume, if she got a call, she could contact me. She received no call either on the date and time agreed to.

It's tough when overseas, 180 degree out and trying to get a hold of someone at a specific time. I still haven't received a single response from my two emails sent. Is what it is I suppose.

Same happened to me but I emailed her 30 min after our scheduled time and she responded pretty quickly. Said that she never saw my initial response and rescheduled for next week. Try emailing your recruiter again.

Maybe this is Frontier's latest situation-based interview technique. They're testing you to see how you'll react to being treated with no respect and how you'll react when another member of "the team" doesn't do her job.

"Thank you sir. May I please have another... appointment so that you may or may not call me again?"

The perfect candidate.

"Good" is a relative term. Could things be worse? Of course. Will things get better? Hopefully soon. So what is your definition of good?

Have you looked at the pay? Moral is the lowest I've ever seen it. And that's really saying something considering what we've been through. Hotels have gone downhill, schedules have gone downhill, pay is pathetically low thanks to LOA's that were way too long.

So no, things are not good at Frontier. The only saving grace is the pilot group. Best group of people you'll ever find.

I am definitely going to try again on Monday. I give her the benefit of doubt as it's Friday, probably is overwhelmed with recruiting calls, maybe had a family emergency, etc. It's tough getting things done out here in Afghanistan, especially when my schedule is 180 out.

I think anything is possible and I'm certainly not going to be mean. It's just frustrating getting things done while out here. I am interested in Frontier, have been for a while...applied over a year ago. I'm a bit lucky in that I have other income, Navy retirement, wife works, making six figures (gross) off that. I can deal with a lower pay, starting off at least. I think it's difficult to be perfect, any company. My current company pays well but it has some major issues now.

Yes, the pay sucks...big time. But a new contract will hopefully fix that.

Frontier is in a great position right now. We are the 5th most profitable airline in the country and growing quickly. There is a real opportunity here. 2 year upgrade here and 20 year upgrade at Southwest. Add a new contract to that, and I'd say frontier will be a good airline to work for.
