Second EA of the year today and it's only April 1st... looks like we're really on top of it out here. Meanwhile the DL, AA, and UA departures seem unaffected. Hmmmm

You must make sacrifices for the pleasure of working here for less compensation. You'll have the same issues at the other airli---oh, wait...

I went to OBAP last summer and was excited to speak with the recruiters. It went very well... and the guy was positive about my chances. Never heard another word. Application was in and correct, 2 internals, 9000TT, 3200TPIC, no violations, BA degree with honors, previous 121.... all I got from JB was crickets.

UPS hired me 2 months after the job fair.

You were overerqualified. They have a sweet spot they are fond of here. They like someone with just enough stink on thier record that they can't easily leave.

I just applied to this current window. I was hoping to see some of the backgrounds of others that are applying. I'm just shy of 4k TTL and just shy of 1k PIC. Good luck to everyone who submitted.

Apologize, but for the uninitiated...what is an EA?
