Alaska Airlines recent hiring window

Has anyone heard from Alaska airlines, after their recent hiring window that closed a month or 2 ago?

Nothing yet. From what I understand, Alaska was going to begin culling applications and calling for interviews after the WAI conference. It's been a week since the conference, so I would imagine they'll start calling soon.

jumpseated last week on them and they said 5 more weeks to go over apps so maybe 4 weeks to go?

I was told late march early April for interviews to start. But that was right before the window opened.

I agree with Hoover, a couple people told me they were waiting for WAI and then finish sifting through apps.

Last update I heard was a line rumor of calls in the next week or 2 after the holiday. They may have interviews mid/late April. Rumor still says only need 50 or so for the rest of the year (20-30 of the original 80 are in pool already)

Nothing! No call from the 206, but I'm not really expecting one. My odds are better for winning the lottery.

I'll bet we'll start hearing about calls next week.

Man, 23 years in the Air Force, if I wasn't optimistic and cheery, I'd be broken and bitter! Plus, I know no matter where I end up at, I'm going to love it and enjoy every minute. Anything is better than sitting on the tail gate of a C-130, eating a cold MRE on Thanksgiving, at a field in Pakistan with burning feces in the air!

Alas, I won't be in Vegas, I'm very disappointed about it. My plan was to arrive on Wednesday evening, volunteer with OBAP at one of the area schools and then attend the FAPA job fair on Friday. But, I've got a prior engagement and won't be able to make it. I've already got my hotel and ticket for Chicago in May.

Good luck!
