Post hiring available to start date change
What would happen if a major offered you the job, but then you came back a while later and said you could not class up for a few weeks to months later than you thought, due to a military not letting you go as early as you believed, for instance?

I have a number of friends who have gone through indoc then gone on mil leave immediately. This gets you a seniority number. Worst case take 10 days of leave to get through indoc.

If you are released from active duty and then called back you need only be at your new employer 1 day. If you are on active duty and show up and then request mil leave you are not covered by mil leave law.

The bottom line is that I don't think your future employer cares much if your availability changes by a few weeks or months. They understand. I'm sure they have plenty willing to move up a class date. That said, get your number as soon as humanly possible.

I'm facing the same issue. Active Duty. Waiting to see if AFPC will waive 6 months of an active duty service commitment so I can retire at 20 years. I probably won't have my answer prior to the interview. I counted at least three folks in the DAL Poolie thread who were in similar situations and had to delay taking a class for a bit. I just saw my friend's recent CJO letter from Delta and it says the CJO is good for six months. I'm pretty sure Delta will work with you. Just make sure you are up front and honest with them during the interview.

Interesting...when I interviewed in March the CJO was good for a year. And Delta will work with you; the CJO letter says you may defer on one class date, but AK said military could defer indefinitely. I don't remember if he specified whether or not you had to be active duty.
