A company has 30 or 31 days( can't remember which) to return a pria request. In fact it only has to be post marked by 30 days. My last carrier waited that long out of spite costing me a hundred numbers. Having known the previous director of HR the story was relayed this happens quite frequently. Apparently some airline don't take too kindly to people quiting.

The airline is short pilots. A lot of us were called and asked if we knew pilots who wanted to interview. If you made it to P2 you most likely have the job. Only you know if you have some skeletons hiding. If not, kick back and wait for a class date.

Hey Benz, I agree we are short. Why the small class sizes?

I don't want to be discouraging to anyone, but for those of us wondering if passing Phase I meant we were in unless the background check shows up something . . . I interviewed on the 5th, got the Phase I notification, but got the rejection letter today. There is nothing in my background that wasn't revealed on my initial interview, so I have no idea why. Had great recommendation letters from several employees on top of the three required with the app, two of which were from my current 121 employer's management, so go figure. Good luck guys

From what I understand they are balancing the 117 regs, projected attrition and not over hiring while still trying to find qualified pilots. The one constant at every airline is a poor hiring department.
Back in the day airways was hiring 100 per month even though management was planning to furlough.

So have they started calling people from later interviews? Or are there still guys from the 2/5 waiting on calls?

I know several guys from 9E that are in Phase II waiting on a class date that interviewed in Jan. I'd lay money down that their PRIA from 9E is holding them up. The guys that were in the Jan 28th interview group likely had their requests sent to 9E about a week later, which means 9E should be sending them back this week sometime. If it's due 30 days from receipt, it'll be postmarked on the 30th day. 29th at the earliest.....
