Asking a question does not equal entitlement or not happy. If you have a preference ask. If the answer is no say thanks and take what you get.
I asked and I was told no. I said thanks and I'm pumped to get a great job either way.

I'm about 1-2 years off from upgrading. My QOL is great now and I'm surviving on pay. Obviously QOL will go down and pay will go up upon upgrade. My end goal is mainline.

My entire interview group was told to put our choice of aircraft (if we had one) on our file, as well as an availability date. I doubt they would ask an entire interview group to do that just to weed out those seeking the 747 type. I'm just saying...

Nope, they're trying to find the ones who want the 767. Everyone wants the whale so they pay special attention to those who ask for the light twin. I gambled on that and asked for the 767. Turned out to be a good call cuz I got the call the next day.

When I got asked that question (twice... once on the phone, once in the hr panel interview), I said any airplane would be great, at this point I just want to be on the seniority list, BUT, If I really do have a choice, I'd choose the whale.
I got the whale, and on the next class. (Don't know if it helped me or no, but I'm here).

I've been applying for 6 years without an invite for the test, not sure what the trick is. 8 types, lots of international experience, and two internal recs. It's a mystery.

^^^ make sure to re-apply every 30 days. If still no response, job fairs. Next big one that Atlas should be at will be Women's in Aviation conference. Sometime early March. That should trigger the online assessment test.

Pretty sure their website says once every 3 months. And I'm pretty sure they're strict on that.
