Atlas Air Hiring
I have been moving up about 20 numbers every month since August. At that rate I'll get into the left seat of the 76 4 years and 4 months from now...just past my 5th Anniversary. Even when my rate slows as I get more senior, I seem to be tracking to upgrade as expected.
People will leave, people will stay, jets will be purchased, jets will be parked. Upgrade times will fluctuate. Stay the course, bank on minimum guarantee, and be happy for the small victories.

Well, since there are only 5 or 8 retirements every month, the upgrades and hiring to fill the new jets was last year, and the company stated a pause in 76 and 73 CA upgrades to "catch up" and reduce the training delays, this seems to make perfect sense.

That is great attitude to have and one that would serve any airline pilot well throughout a career.

Hi all. Sorry to switch topics. I looked around on this forum and couldn't find an answer. I just recently applied and wondering how long it tends to take to recieve a response about your application. Will they respond whether or not they offer you an interview? Like a "thanks but no thanks" type of thing?

Interview
Hello, i had my interview January 26th. Didn’t hear back for almost a month. Last week they sent me an email saying that i had successfully passed all interviews. They said i was placed in a hiring pool for when class dates become available. Has anyone else had this email?
If so, is this a good sign or bad?

How long was there from the time you applied to the time they reached out for an initial interview?

From what I read earlier in this post that's a good thing. That's the normal process they go through to give you a class date. With that said I'm just a hopeful applicant and could very well be wrong.

I initially applied in October of last year. They emailed me on January 5th saying that hiring was closed for last year applications. They sent me an application to fill out for this year. I reapplied and sent it and 5 min later got an email saying to schedule a phone screen. My phone screen was on January 11th and my tech and HR interviews were on January 26th. I do have an internal recommendation as well btw
