1. I had an offer to interview at F9 on April 13. On March 30, it was cancelled. I recalled thinking "ok no problem it happens"

2. They rescheduled that april 13 interview for May 17. Then on May 2 it was cancelled AGAIN!

3. I receive NO phone calls or emails from May 2 up until July 14. A very nice man called me unexpectedly and gave me the chance to interview with a VERY short 6 day notice on July 20. I was open and honest and just couldnt do it in that short of notice

4. I interviewed today, August 4 and after spending all day with the wonderful hiring folks at F9, I was NOT selected. (I was the first group to be 86'd). Whether i interviewed poorly or not, I will probably never know. HOWEVER points 1-3 that i previously mentioned, i have to say make me very skeptical of Frontier. Does this happen everywhere? You bet, but it puzzles me that they went on and on about the need to hire hundreds of pilots for growth.

Should an applicant be treated this way? Well i guess thats for all of you wonderful guys at F9 to flame me away on. ��

I wish you guys the best of luck on your contract negotiations!

Perhaps there is no shortage after all?

One guy was like less than a year there! Or maybe it was that weirdo tall old bald guy. Maybe he didn't like you. Honestly frontier was a joke, some regionals have it better. they claim they want to hire everyone but are bizarrely selective. 8 hours of forced mingling and ass kissing what a joke.

I'm sorry you weren't selected. A little introspection could go a long way. Would you have hired someone with your attitude? Maybe you did everything right at the interview, but disingenuousness is easy to smell.

Or anything for that matter.

I think they do a decent job of hiring people your not afraid of being stuck with for a 4 day. I wouldn't trust management to consider our interests.
