When that terminology was used in the past at another carrier, it WAS a guaranteed interview. It's NOT at UAL. Like I said, it's part of the legal disclaimer one will receive at an M&G.

What's the time frame you would hear anything about an interview or how it went in their opinion? I did one a couple weeks ago and just twiddling my thumbs wondering! Thanks!

It depends.
With whom did you interview?

Training manager in IAH. Padre as my sponsor. He had appointments all day long an hour apart so maybe he's just backed up?

HuggyU2 08-16-2014 10:08 PM
So, it was a meet and greet,..l and not the actual interview, correct?
If so, hard to say.

Correct. I know he's supposed to do some sort of recommendation but it hasn't shown up on my airline apps so I've also been wondering if it goes straight to HR.. Hmm.

All that said, I'm not bitter. I haven't compromised my moral compass or feigned my enthusiasm for anyone, in the process of getting a job. That is more than enough for me in order to look at myself and my family straight in the eye in the morning. There's more to life than sucking up.
Sucking up is one thing. Having someone who knows you validate that you are not a self-serving jerk is another. Why should an airline take a chance on a "stranger" over someone who is recommended as a "good guy"? It's called networking and it is life. Those that say they don't play "the game" really are playing along but they enjoy hobbling along on the foot they keep shooting.

Bump....

Has anyone who has done a meet n greet get a call yet? Just curious how it is all playing out.
