Nothing special? Don't sell yourself short. You've been volunteering since high school and got a 3.9 GPA in college. You've accumulated over 9K hours with heavy INTL PIC. Sounds pretty special to me.

It sounds to me like you've been working your whole life with a single goal in mind and never gave up. It sounds to me like you earned that interview and earned the job at UAL with every effort you put in since high school. Don't let the internet harshness make you apologize for your comment about being on the younger side...you're proud of yourself and you should be. You worked your a$$ off and got hired early in your life in an industry where age+seniority are king. You're going to have an incredible career and you've earned it.

Many congrats! Well done.

Default Delta internal recommendations

I was wondering if someone could clarify something about Delta internal recommendations for me? I was wondering if the timing of getting the letters matters? I have my app in, but I am not even at their published hiring minimums yet. Would it be better to wait until I have a more competitive application before getting recommendations on airlineapps or does it matter if I just start getting them now so that when I get more time the letters are already there? I know they have a way of emailing the hiring board to get your app scored, but is that different than just getting the recommendation letter on airlineapps?

Thanks all!
