The tailwheel endorsement for the win!

Hired in this last bunch. Shooting for feb class date.
3000 total (all civilian)
1500 at regionals
0 TPIC
2 job fairs
2 LORs

Lets just say that being the squeaky wheel is what worked for me. And then I had to do some serious convincing that ill never leave Atlas. Which I have no intentions of. But they look at a 3k hour 30 yr old guy like I have googly eyes for Delta. The rumor is they tailor your tech interview as per your experience. They grilled me on the tech interview and luckily I studied up and did very well.

Either way... Ecstatic is an understatement as Ive had blinders on for Atlas for a while now.

PERSISTENCE is the only thing that gets you interviewed.

Does Atlas require vaccinations prior to employment, or do they just leave it up to you to decide and figure it out?

The nurse will come in and will give you the vaccinations you need at new-hire training.

....and if I may add, anything else that you want just goes on the company credit card whenever you get them. There is a long list in the FOM, divided between "Required", "Primary" and "Secondary". I have never had it questioned, even when I dropped a $568 charge a couple of years ago.

Hepatitis B can be found in third world blood supplies, so you might want to consider getting that one even if you are not planning on sport sex in Hong Kong.

This is not a place for anti-vaccers. On the other hand perhaps that long list on the shot card explains a few things.

Hepatitis B is one that I have always kept current (I believe it's every ten years).

But regardless, if you have time before training starts, go visit a Travel Medicine doctor, and at the very least, do some homework on the CDC, WebMD, etc sites about their recommendations for Africa, S Asia, and S America. (If there is an eight thousand foot or greater runway, you may end up there, so don't take this lightly).

Great question btw, and I'm not sure it's been asked before in 1240 pages...wow.

Good luck in the school house.

Great advice!!! Thank you!

If you interviewed on the 19th, shoot me a PM and let me know about class dates and class offers.
