While I'm very happy people are interviewing and getting placed in class right away, its very discouraging for those of us who have been in the pool for months waiting for a call. Even if you already have the 767 type rating don't you still have to do the full training program? I'm very grateful to be swimming in the pool of the company I've wanted to be at for such a long time but I'm starting to wonder if its going to happen. Are they only hiring with the 767 type now? I don't mean to complain but I'm just very eager to get started.

For those of you swimming, I vividly remember how agonizing the wait can be. At least there's a valid reason for the wait, with the Classics being retired.
If it were me, I would resubmit the resume/PAQ after a year. (I resubmitted mine after 6 months in the pool just to be safe) My guess is HR is fully aware that you guys are on hold, and showing your continued interest would be a good thing. Keep the faith!

I understand the reasons for the long swim and know that it will be well worth it in the end.
However, the longer it goes I get more nervous that the pool could suffer some sort of anomaly causing some of the swimmers to drown and have to reapply. I haven't applied anywhere else because I want to work at Atlas, so this would be a huge set-back in my 'career'.
As long as the pool maintains it's integrity, I will patiently swim.
