Hear, hear!

Whether you're on the Atlas or Southern list, solidarity is the key to a good contract.

Default Phone Interview

I attended the last FAPA job fair to visit Atlas. I received the test the next morning, took it immediately and passed. Last Friday (the 15th) I received the phone interview and we talked 20/25 minutes. I thought that the conversation went really well. At the end of the call the recruiter mentioned that they were just gathering information on people at this time, and the hiring manager would review my file. If interested, they would call me for a face to face interview.

I had heard that the current round of interviews this week were already filled. I was just wondering if anyone else had received the phone interview between last Friday and today and given the same information. I am a little concerned that I did not get an offer for the face to face interview at the end of the call. I am hoping it was just that they had not picked dates for the next round. Any additional information would be much appreciated! Thanks.

I was also curious if they got the number of interviews over the 4 days this month that they were hoping for. I heard 180-200 was desired (45-50) per day. Anyone care to piece that together?

There were a couple people I spoke to who had 2-3 days notice and Interviewed on Tuesday, but I wouldn't be too concerned yet.

Seriously good luck!

You didn't mention that I paid for a hotel breakfast! That's got to be a huge disqualifier to, right??

Sadly, no. They make us do that out on line far too often...

I got called Tuesday the 12th and was offered to interview on a day of my choice. I interviewed 18th.

passing the test should get you an interview, so unless you said something you regret saying, I would email them in a few days and politely remind them of the call and hint around you want an interview. people slip through the cracks at Atlas, especially at this hiring rate.

True words. EVERYTHING has the potential fall into the Grand Canyon at Atlas. Good people, strained infrastructure. It has always been so.

The other side of the coin was the guy who got lost and was on the payroll for over a year without turning his first wheel on OE (under the old rules). He only got found because he put in a vacation bid.

No joke? How do I fall through that crack? I've been applying for better than 5 years.... I finally got through, but it took a long time.
