The PAQ form has "YES/NO" type questions in regards to glass/FMS/heavy/crossings type stuff. And IIRC, there was a sub section on the flight time grid that asked for hour totals of some of the preferred, but NOT minimum requirements.

I wish I knew what the golden token was to get a phone call. I have been dying to work for this company and would love to be part of the Atlas team in any flying capacity. Military and meet all of the preferred requirements, two internal recs and haven't had a sniff yet. This is a true exercise of patience and hope for that matter. Any advice is welcomed from anybody who might know something I don't!

I just interviewed, and the young lady that gave us the tour mentioned that there is not really anyone in the pool...

Thought that was odd, as I know there are many gues on this thread who have said the same thing. Good luck to all...

Yeah that is odd. I checked my letter last night, and it said they would place me in the hiering pool. Hopefully all the swimmers will be rescued soon.

Can someone please PM me a name to address my cover letter to, as well as an address & fax number to HR? I want to hit all the bases! Thanks!

Just submit the PAQ. It works.

I've been doing that for a while now without any luck. I'll keep at it, but I was just looking for any way to increase my odds. Even just a name at HR that I can use to make my submission email a little more personal would be great.

Fair enough, I just remember reading that they just want the PAQ and nothing else. Buddy of mine first submitted in October and interviewed in June, so it can take a while. Probably your best bet to stand out would be face time at a job fair, if you don't have an internal rec.

Copy, thanks for your help!

I started class today and was able to get a little info from our Indoc Instructor. He had heard that my class was, at one point, going to be the last class for the rest of the calendar year. But, now, Atlas is planning 7 more classes through the end of the year; 5 classes of 12 and 2 classes of 10 for a total of 80 more trained. The last class is slated for December 5th. BTW, my class only has 8 students (not sure why).

I don't know how many more interviews they are going to conduct. Heard that there's around 40 people still swimming, and that's not counting those who just interviewed last week. Instructor mentioned they're screening out non-glass/FMS pilots. Maybe that's due to no more Classic training planned or that it reduces the 744 training by up to 3 days (if every student has a lot of glass experience)...or both.

If I heard my classmates correctly, 2 were February interviewees, 3 were March (myself included) and 3 were from April.

Good luck to all applying.
