Hey all,

I interviewed recently in FLL. Had a great experience and left feeling very confident. Currently working a 135 job with about 4000 TT and more than 2000 Jet PIC. I brought two letters of rec (one internal). There were about 20 in my group, more than half of which confirmed they got a call the very next day. Spirit says up to two weeks before notification so I still have a little hope, but the fact that more than half of my group got a call so quickly has me worried. Do you think I stand a chance, still, or should I expect a “thanks but no thanks”? I can’t think of a reason why they would call half of the group at a later time than the rest so that’s where my anxiety is coming from.

I’m assuming that unless you received a TBNT email you’re still in it.

anecdotal but I got the call two days after others in my group.

When I interviewed, I, along with 3-4 other guys in my interview group got the call the next morning, less than 24 hours after interviewing. Others didn't hear anything for 4-5 days and a good chunk of them got the CJO as well. I'd say don't lose hope until you get the TBNT email.

Out of curiosity, how immediate is your availability?

There may be some vacant class spots open that needed to be filled quickly.

I told them 2 weeks. The people that got called from my group are in mid January classes. No news on my end, still, but the holiday could have something to do with that I suppose.

No news is generally good news. Feel free to reach out to HR. It could be a number of things. Double check your spam folder to make sure you didn’t miss an email.

Yeah, I’ve been checking my spam folder while holding my breath a lot lately! Still nothing in there, luckily. Spirit says notification within 2 weeks of interview so I didn’t want to follow up with HR too soon.

For whats it’s worth, I was called to offer me
job. Maybe only TBNT go out as emails.

Could anyone here comment on training failures. I had an outlier failure on an oral almost 5 years ago. Only one I’ve had in 15 years of being at the airlines. There’s a question on the talent acquisition form that asks if you’ve had anything in the previous 5 years. I’m assuming this is a trigger regarding a call for an interview.

Anyone had experience with this?
