Keep the gouge coming!
Grumble, assuming you've got internal recs, unless we've totally taken hiring away from pilots and handed it to HR, I'd bet a good chunk of cash a FW mil guy with a clean record will move pretty high on the list. Don't sweat the "outside activities" which might be code for WIA and OBAP and applies to a relative handful. Then again, I'm not involved in the process and having watched the "can you top this" act from management over the last three years, nothing is beyond belief at UniCal.

For those who got a call for interview, was there any sort of telephone screening/tech questions asked during the phone conversation? Or was it all confirmation of interest and contact info verification?

It was stated on APC that UAL used to do some tech questions during the initial phone call.

Good luck all!

Verifying things on the app, address etc.... they send stuff to study for the sim, set up a date to come in! That's it!

Not first hand yet, but a friend told me someone he knew was called and it was very simple. Set up the interview a week and a half after the call.

I'm in the same boat, nothing. For the most part we're all type A personalities that are used to making things happen, but in this case we all have to just sit and wait, and keep updating hoping for the call. As painful as that is!

Military
IP/Evaluator
135 experience
ATP & CFII/MEI
4 year degree
5 internal recs
Same boat as well, just not as well off as you are. No 135 experience, I'm all military and no internal recs.

Still, I'm hoping to not get overlooked.

Keep your chin up boys, we're just at the beginning of the wave.
