Default NWA App ?

To all those that are crazy enough to want to work at NWA, myself included:
Has anyone not heard a thing? I have an internal ref., 7600 tt 4600 pic TJ in a looser cruiser-crj, and I put my info in the first day? And to those that did interview, what did you guys do to get your stuff pulled?

If you work for 9E, don't hold breath; they aren't calling any Mesaba and Compass people either.

What are your sources???

I personally know of a hand full of guys from Mesaba that are making the move to "big brother"... and I'm sure there are more than that.

I just got called, i was totally surprised. I have no recommendations internally either. I must have gotten really lucky because i am nowhere near high time. They called today with a basic check of my app and verified some things. Then asked me about when i could interview next month. Does anyone know the reasoning for people getting calls? I have just over 3000 hours and about 250tpic (121). Does anyone know what training pay is, when insurance starts?thanks guys

I'm curious. How old are the applicants that are getting interviewed?

It's odd, but it seems that everyone getting called is low to moderate time and young (30s). I wonder if NWA is trying to hire low timers that will stick around a while instead of moving on to places like FDX or UPS.

How long after you submitted your application did you get the call? I submitted my resume, then the app they asked me to fill out online, but no call yet.
