Do you even read this stuff before you click the Submit Reply button?

The word you and your CFI candidate buddies are looking for is LEGACY. Frontier is not a Legacy carrier.

You and your buddies can now go back to debating whether the Coriolis Force makes toilet water spin in the opposite direction in the Southern Hemisphere. Carry on.

Brilliant OpenClimb!

Really???? Who gives a crap????

Side note back to hiring. Had an eye opening conversation with a regional pilot yesterday. The discussion of hiring came up and I asked if he applied to F9. (He lives in DEN) Come to find out that our HR department and their mass rejection blast emails create some butt hurt. This guy got a "bad vibe" from his letter and therefore refuses to reapply. According to him, he exceeds all the mins, but would rather stay at his regional and commute than apply at F9 again. Our contract sucks and our pay sucks. His words. I agree with him in the fact if you take a snapshot of today, he is correct. But it will not be that way forever.

Frontier has been a stepping stone airline for at least 5 years now. The fact that we fly the 321 for such dog food rates confirms it.

Anyone know why people interviewing today are being told that they will get something in the mail telling them if they get hired? Seems a break from the normal process. Seems like somethings up?

Apparently, the process has changed. Candidates are no longer being told yes or no on the day of their interview, but will have to wait for a call, email, or snail mail notification, not sure which. Next class is not set in stone, but probably in May. PRIA paperwork is no longer taken after completion of the interview, so that will probably lengthen the process too.

Junior FO is a 12/2016 hire. No idea how long the list of FOs who want to get there might be, however.

What an idiot. He'd rather commute to a dying regional than be home based and fly the Bus, because of a silly HR email? I would rather not have his type here. I am not saying it's great here, but what kind of idiot says something like that?
