Assuming you arent MIL coming from pointy jets.. It's very low time to be at this level. Be humble about it and ready to learn.

Trust me, I am beyond grateful to be to get a call from to get a call from UA. I do have a bit of imposter syndrome about it and feel like there was a lot of luck involved. I am not MIL, but I do come from a ULCC in which United is competing with.

That's good. Really happy for you guys. I feel lucky too. I wasnt exactly high time. 5000, w/2000tpic, graduate
degree, some low level union & outside volunteer work, and 121 instructor exp.

Basically average pre covid.

It's just insane to see CFIs going to ULCCs and then coming here after 750-500 hrs. It is what it is. Cut the senior folks some slack if they have a reaction. 10,000 hr RJ pilot hires were typical not too long ago.

Finessed is a troll who may or may not work here. Bobby Lee is right. Very few of our guys will begrudge you the luck of good timing, but to a man, no one is going to respond well to entitlement. Recognize your experience level means you have a lot to learn and your position gives you a golden opportunity to do so, & I think you’ll have a very positive experience here.

IF the gonkulator determines you pass muster, your application will "lock" with red text saying you cannot update the app.
1-2 weeks after app lock you will get a assessment. Search this website for that info.
After that, interview invite within days.

Default Travel to/from Interview

Hi everybody, I am currently running into some issues booking my flight to my interview. When I type in the PIN for the promotion code, the United website tells me it is incorrect. I get a message saying to enter a valid 10 digit pin, but mine is only 9 digits. I wanted to see if anybody else has had this problem and any potential solutions before calling their reservation number. Thanks in advance!

Try using the “Offer Code,” it’s long as it combines the promo code and PIN. Also read the email very carefully as these directions are spelled out in it.

In addition to the poster above, I noticed that mine didn’t work if trying to book through the United app. As soon as I tried booking through the regular website it worked just fine.

Does United require the COVID vaccine?
