anyone have info on this?
Spirit homepage > Careers > Register profile (upper left).

However, that seems to only establish a "job agent" to search for positions. I'm not sure how that interacts with applications you've submitted.

Jokey meatballs (auto type correct, so I left it), has it correct. 10 of us in my class, the only ones to get ACY wanted ACY.
Thanks, how does Spirit determine seniority within the class? How long are guys having to sit reserve, and how long until a new hire could hold the line @ DFW?

Thanks!

Seniority within the class is determined by age.

Reserve here seems dependent on base and time of year. During the summer, I think reserve went pretty senior, this last bid (September) reserve went fairly junior. But, it isn't long before you can hold a line I hear.
I have a buddy at Delta, he bid down a plane so he would have a better chance at holding a line, he's been there six years.

A new hire could probably get DFW right out of training, and if not I'm guessing within three months. I'm still quite new, but the commuter policy here at Spirit is one of the friendliest in the industry from what I understand.

My training date was 4/1 of this year and I am hopeful that I will hold DFW in October. Based on my timing alone, it is the most senior FO base, though they are all very close. Your mileage will vary.

Hard to tell how long it will take to hold a line there at this point.

It depends. I waited 3-4 months, others have waited just a few days. It varies. If you haven't heard anything by the end of the year, it may just not happen. I know that's not what you want to hear, but keep your chin up and maintain the positive attitude. A month isn't that long to wait.
Best of luck!

That makes me feel a little better. I filled out long app 3 months ago. Retire in Dec... Getting anxious.

Anyone at Spirit care to help me out? I've been trying to get on for a while but no dice. I have attended the last two job fairs and I thought it had gone very well. I can't attend the next job fair because its my daughters first birthday. I meet the time requirements; however, I'm still currently working on my bachelors degree. Does anyone know if not currently having the degree is a deal breaker?? If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it! Please PM me!


Thanks in advance!
