Has anyone been called from the Preferred Hiring List Yet?
Interviewed Last August (2016), and got called Last Month
By KF....
She had asked me if I was interested in a Southern Air Class that
Was beginning on December 22, 2016.
I, respectfully declined, and indicated to her, that my preference was
to stay on the Atlas Air Side Of The House.
She indicated that that was NO PROBLEM and she told me that they had a B747 Class in January 2017, a B767 Class in February 2017, and a B747 Class in March 2017.....
Today is January 4, 2017, and I haven't heard anything from anyone.
Any Atlas Pilots out there able to give me any guidance, OR Intel,
On the New Hire Classes at The School House?
I'm a little hesitant on calling KF Directly, but, I sometimes believe Time Is Of The Essence!
HELP!

When I bang in sick or conflict bid it can be more which drops me to min guarantee with R1's being stuck on the front or back but i'd rather be at home regardless.
pm me for more details.

Know before you go
Don't plan on overtime to makeup first year pay. All goes senior, and right now no one is picking up anything unless you want to cross your brothers. You will be gone 17+ days a month unless you live in base. the plus? You get to travel to and from work on your off time. That's two more full days you lose at home.
Guys and gals abondoning this sinking ship, because there is no way they will be able to staff this place. Amazon flying will be subbed out to someone else. DHL will continue to try and whipsaw contractors until they can't fly their own routes.
Unless you want another failed airline added to your resume, stay where you are, things are moving fast. A good airline will scoop you up. Everyone here is ALL OUT
