I'm also having technical problems with the app website, but hopefully I can get that squared away and get a call soon.

Going to the MTC / job fair events and talking to the recruiters, is probably more important than what’s on your resume.

Looks like I missed the December MTC, and I'm not finding anything recent on job fairs. Any idea when the next ones are?

ask AA guys If their company treats them better then spirit treats us. At least since the contract.

Besides the high fives and sweet ass Bendo videos my 'treat them better' remark was in reference to pay, retirement, and profit sharing. All three of which we are considerably behind. Even AA.

Can I do what needs doing in a day? An afternoon? How does it work? Sorry for all the basic questions, I just have zero clue on this.

Absolutely. Go and buy ticket for whichever day you want to come and show up and chat up the Spirit Booth.

Sandi, our lead HR/hiring person, will be there along with some other HR and line pilots.
