The recommendation from the Denver CP was added to my airline app after I did it.

Yes

The way it was explained to me, and not in any official terms mind you, is that UAL doesn't give a conversion on the "front end". Meaning, you won't see what it did to you times on the app. But a conversion/factor is done on the "back end". Meaning the hal2000/WOPR/Uber/sort/sift/rank/compare-contrast/rack and stack does it for the HR people to see. Like I said, just what I heard, NOT offical.

I was told at my M&G that if I didn't see it within 48 hours to shoot him and email. Not like those guys don't get busy/task saturated and some of that stuff may simply not be their focus if something pops up.

True to his word, I had it within 18 hours of the parting handshake.

If you are going to be close enough to the guy to shoot him, don't you think an email is overkill? :

I've labeled as "thorough" before. In resume speak, it's "detail orientated"

EXCEPT on the interwebz forems, then autocorrect rules the day.

Does the M&G recommendation show up as a LOR in your UAL addendum to your airlineapps profile? I had a successful M&G last fall, but I didn't know to ask about a specific airlineapps adjustment. I don't see anything on my profile that indicates it took place. Am I looking in the wrong place, or has something been overlooked?

(The thought has occurred to me that I wasn't really recommended, but I was told in fairly certain terms that I was- to the point that it would really surprise me if that was just a lie to get me out the door.)

It should just be listed with all the other recommendations you have. It will show there name. I'm sure they can list more about themselves when they write the recommendation.

At the end of my M&G, the guy handed me his card and told me to send him the recommendation request through AirlineApps to the email on his card. I assume if you didn't send the request, whoever you "meeted and greeted" didn't know to send the recommendation. My guy took about 10 days but low and behold, the recommendation appeared on my AirlineApps in the United addendum where my other LORs appear.

For what it's worth, I think he listed his name and job title at the top of the LOR before the main body of it.

I am only a NH, but very close observer (see Poolie thread) and it looks like UAL Interview/Hiring will finally ramp back up in August/September (if not sooner)!

Get ready and Good Luck.
Is it August Yet?

Rumor on the poopie thread is that the current pool will all have class dates by the end of July. Seems early to me, but if true, we could see calls going out in the very near future. Please post if you get a call so we can track the hiring trends. Thanks.
