Thanks for the response! I interviewed the 11th and I’ve got a big problem. I’ve got an offer from another company and I have to let them know today. I’d much rather work for SkyWest but if I didn’t pass the interview I need to take this other offer. If I don’t let them know today I’ve blown my chances with them. At the interview SkyWest made it clear that they would notify us…. In other words, “don’t call us, we’ll call you.” What can I do? Anybody know who I could call or e-mail to find out if I passed the interview? I don’t want to **** anyone off but I’m in a bind here. Any suggestions would be great!

Me three, I interviewed on the 8th and still haven't heard. Who was your friend, it seemed like a great group on the 8th. PM me if you want.

Call Cassidy or Camielle. Camielle is probably not there but if you explain your situation to Cassidy she might fess up.

Tell the current company "yes", then when skywest calls with the good news, call them back if you aren't in ground school yet or just leave ground school for skywest. I've known several who have left mesa's ground school and gone to skywest and were in that situation. Look out for you first; screw the other airline.

It's not unheard of to get lost in the shuffle. When I got hired they left me hanging for a few weeks. When they finally did call, they said, "I'm sorry, but we are gonna have to push your class back a few weeks, because it's full." I said, "so does that mean I'm hired then?" She said oh yea, they didn't tell you already?
So I guess the moral of the story is, papers get lost, and the communication between everyone there isn't perfect. Give them a call.

yes but to have 4 people who have all been waiting to miraculously run across each other on the same board, get all lost in the shuffle probably not. i think there just running behind on EVERYTHING. i heard they dont want to be called unlesss oyu have an extreme situation like the kid with another job offer, but if you do call and they give you an answer over the phone, and dont sound ****ed that you did call, then let me know

I sent an e-mail explaining my situation and got a call back. She was very polite and gave me the info I needed but she also made it clear that she only called because of my situation. She didn’t come right out and say it, but she heavily implied that they really don’t like people bugging them unless it is an emergency. Luckily, she agreed that my situation was. Not only did the other company want an answer today, but they also wanted me to sign a training contract to back it up. Not that it matters, I disagree with the logic of accepting the other offer and leaving class a week into it to go to another company. Something about professional courtesy. I know you have to do what is best for you but people should still consider the money that the company is spending on you for training. I wouldn’t have left the other company in the middle of training. It’s bad enough that I told them “no” three days before class was to start. Anyway, I’ll get off the soap box. Good luck to everyone waiting! I hope to meet you in class soon!

Oh, and I don't think anyone got lost in the mix. They are just busy because of the holiday. I'm sure you'll know next week sometime.
