Bingo! You'll read it in prior posts but one of the main things that register is: Can this person be with a crew for a month without them wanting to strangle him or her at the end of it. I know that sounds trite but it's the truth. Being honest and forthright comes through over the phone and they've done this long enough to differentiate that from contrived or canned answers.

Beyond that, know what Atlas does as a business. If you let them know you understand it is possible you could be gone up to 21 days, that your schedule can be in flux the whole time and you can convince the HR rep that you are okay with that changing schedule. Well, then you just might get pushed on to the test. Good luck.

From a very reliable source, the pool is empty and they are interviewing to restock the pool of swimmers! One small class til the end of the year. Tomorrow it could be different, Good Luck!

Stock price up 5.5% today, interesting. Can't find any news that would justify it.

Haha, good one...since when does Wall Street follow any logic, or even news and go in the direction that makes any sense to the sane among us!!

But good to hear if you are a stockholder...never have been an airline stockholder, and especially not where I work. Not a good idea...but that is a different discussion (and I'm not capable of an intelligent conversation beyond what I've already said!!).
