You are being evaluated from the moment you walk in the door. You accumulate points all along the way (your writing skils on the incident report, sim, your answers in panel/group interview, etc) and with your written test scores receive an overall score for the whole process.
Not sure how strange it is but it certainly is frustrating waiting for the next step email!! :D

2 classes scheduled in August. No pilots selected yet.

Wonder which it is......class on the 5th of all ex Aloha drivers or 2 classes scheduled in Aug, nobody selected to fill them yet. :confused:

Everything is scored. Sim, panel interviews, the strange HR sessions, the tests, etc.

Do you think that the first Aug class should have selectees notified by the next few days or at least sometime next week?(by selectees I mean Phase III invitations)

How is it that a class contains only all ex-Aloha pilots? Did they all score better than everybody else that interviewed up until that point? Sounds like kama'aina is in full effect at HAL.

I heard that calls went out this week to fill the first class in August. not sure who or how many were called.

One guy in that class didn't work for Aloha. The rest were ex-Aloha but they all interviewed at least 3 or 4 times in the past. From I have seen in the most recent classes this year, Hawaiian did hire a lot of non ex-Aloha pilots and non locals.

Hey, it is what it is 'goose'. I know that I felt like an idiot after 'Dr. Evil' :) administered that Phd. math exam! So I don't know where I'm at in the pool, but just found it odd that a class could be made up of a certain group of pilots if we all are ranked according to a system devised by HAL. No offense to any ex-Aloha drivers, actually I wish everybody the best of luck.

I've heard of two guys getting calls to come back for Phase III on Friday. They were in the 10-12th interview group.
