Interviewed in early March. Given a CJO but no training date. I got a call two days ago from HR saying still no specific date but it’s looking like late 2018, early 2019. Also, they have stopped hiring for the time being.

Yes that is correct. No more classes till the end of summer for new hires. Interviews will start back up then as well.

I'm going through upgrade simulators right now for the 200. My sim partner is a December 2017 new hire. (Has his LOE scheduled this coming week) Most of the other new hires I talk to in the sim center are in similar situations. Sounds like we just need a little time to get caught up.

I'm in the same boat. Interviewed Feb. Waiting on a class date. Hiring has been very helpful in keeping me in the loop. Hoping date is sooner than 2019, but I'm going to wait it out and keep fingers crossed for a phone call.

When is the last scheduled new hire ground then? This is contrary to what we were just told a couple weeks ago in the C building. They said they were doing small classes of 15 until late summer to get caught up on the backup. I know there was a class after us that was January interviewees. Wierd, makes me nervous. I hope it is actually just to catch up on the training backlog and not something more, cause the 900 class had no delay. There were guys that only got one day off between ground and procedure trainers. So that doesn't really add up.

Just before my interview in March, the info I was given was that training classes were backed up into June. Ok, that’s fine. Then a call saying EOY or 2019 and even that was an estimate. It’s forced me to look elsewhere.

I misspoke (was tired) there are new hire classes still going on the rest of the year, they're just smaller. No one without a class date is getting one until the end of summer

I interviewed in January and was offered a class date in late March, but couldn’t take it due to another commitment. So I was scheduled in May. The previous commitment fell through, so I called to see about an earlier date. I was told that they’d push dates back, but not forward. Consequently, I started looking elsewhere and found several 121 gigs that started pretty much right away. Decided to wait for 9E, but then the part 91/135 contract offers started coming in. It’s going to be tough to leave that part of the private stuff behind. It seems that everyone except Endeavor is hurting for pilots.

Oh ok. Thank you for clarifying. Yea, that is right in line with what they told us. If you were a February interviewee, I would say you should be the first one called after they start back up. I think most January interviewees have class dates and some have already finished ground school. I waited three months only because I already had a good job, I was taking a paycut to come to Endeavor, and they gave me a class date at the interview. With the uncertainty and length of time you guys are talking about, I think I would be looking elsewhere.

There's a reason for that.
