Yes, if he takes you on. Occasionally if you try to schedule something very late, at the very last minute and he's booked up he'll tell you there isn't enough time for him to properly prep you and that he'd be wasting your money..
I think that's fair and I think that's being honest.

Years, unfortunately....as the pool is scored because FIFO ain't real popular around here

It seems that recent classes have been filled mostly by pilots that have recently interviewed and not from long time poolies. Looks like UPS doesn't want to lose a candidate to another major by placing them in the pool.

This trend of CJOs at or very shortly after the interview doesn't seem to bode well for long time poolies. There are a few frequent posters that are apparently in the pool and haven't been called. I'd say to them that they better be actively seeking other opportunities and not counting on UPS calling them.

That would be your former VP who tried to get cute and told the company to go fornicate itself.

Thank you gentlemen for the info! Signed up with Emerald Coast and then got a call back from Adam a couple days later. Both seem like very good resources and Adam is incredibly sincere and passionate about his work. Cheers
