Default multiple interview calls

Lest say that you really want to work for one particular airline (SkyWest). But you don’t hear a response from them is while. On the mean time you apply to other airlines.

The question is: what do you do if you got 3 interview calls and you need to choose one? What do you say to the others?

Let’s say you go for the interview and you get hired. In about two months the airline you really want to work for calls? What do you do now?

Sounds like you have a decision to make... take a look at the other thread you posted about declining an interview.

My advice is that you cross each bridge as you get to it. If you want, email me and I'll be happy to chat over the phone about your situation. My email is at www.ridgelines.org (email the admin).

Hi FlyerJosh,

I appreciate your help very much. I went to your link and didn’t know how to email you. I really want to get in with SkyWest, but I haven’t heard from them in about 20 days. I don’t want to be stuck so I am planning to apply to other places. At the same time I don’t want to lose my chances with the other airlines if SkyWest calls me. So it is a taught call.

From what I gather from a very reliable source at SkyWest they are currentley interviewing applicants that were reffered to them by line pilots. When they run out of reccomended resumes the will hire "off the street" non referred pilots. Hope this helps.

I had the same predicament once, I wanted a certain airline to call me they never did, so I went on an interview with a "crappy" airline got the job, the class start date was the same date as my interview with the better airline. Needless to say I declined the class date for an interview....it worked out, but you just have to go with your gut feeling.

good luck

You could ask to reschedule the interview or take a later class date.
