WAI Callbacks?
Wondering if anyone has heard back, or knows anyone who has heard back from meet & greets at the WAI conference? I know UAL has a temporary pause with class dates coming up, but was wondering if they are still actively hiring.

Long time reader, first time poster. Since these posts seem to get off track, here is my attempt to get back on topic. I'm looking to see if anyone who received CJO's early-mid March have recieved class dates yet or might have info on when to expect them? I beleive no classes May/June, but i'm just trying to set my own expectations for planning. I received a CJO on 23 March, and still waiting on the pee test info. Thanks for the help!
I received my class date about 40 days after my CJO, but this was before the pause in classes was announced, so your mileage may vary...

I believe the latest word is no classes May/June with a potential restart in July. Then one class per month Aug/Sept/Oct with the potential for 3 in November and 2 in December. But of course, take that with a huge grain of salt, since this is all likely to change, and I certainly don't have any more accurate info than anyone else on here

It's a United pilot tradition that goes back at least to the 90's: the 8 ball is a term of endearment for the most junior person in any given class. There's a ceremony one night during basic indoc week where the week's junior person is given a bowling ball-sized 8 ball and has to carry it with them everywhere they go. It's all in good fun with drinks and good cheer. When the next class comes along, the ball is passed on.
God save the ball!
