Congrats Otter1!
That's fantastic!

It will depend on how many DTW FOs take upgrade because it looks like most vacancies will be in DFW or LAS for the time being. Once they do it will cause secondary vacancies that will get filled with guys wanting to go to DTW. My guess is 6-12 months.

There are a few guys who already commute to DTW so commuting somewhere else for upgrade isn't a big deal. They should see upgrade within the year. I can think of 4 off the top of my head.

Congrats on getting an interview!

Best of luck Z06...can you give me a timeline of events? I finished the assessment tests Wednesday(1/23) evening. How long after you finished the tests before you received an interview invite? Thanks

The test results need to be reviewed by HR and the doc. If you pass the assessment and fit the Spirit profile you will called for an interview. The HR department has been busy this week because of the job fair. Assessments started this past week and some people have been called for interviews.

I had a person call me this week to do an interview prep. He attended the job fair in Vegas, got an email from Spirit for the assessment, passed, was called for an interview on Friday and has the interview scheduled for this week. The whole process can happen real fast or it could take some time. Please be patient, the HR department is working as fast as they can.
