Yea I attended TPNx on Saturday 22 Apr, then received a top tier on 26 Apr followed by the invite to take the assessment the following day. The invite to take the assessment specifically started the e-mail with something to the effect of thank you for meeting with us at TPNx...

Of note, I'm already past my availability date and failed the test the first time and was at about day 98 when I received the 2nd invite. Hopefully you'll hear back soon!

Are you Mil, degree, type ratings, internal recs, live in a van down by the river, etc. ?

I attended the same day and haven’t heard a word. I must have not impressed the 717 guy. Thanks for the heads up MJMFUNK. I guess I’ll look elsewhere.

717 guy is still a delta mainline pilot …. Perhaps you had a chip on your shoulder.

My 717 reference was just to let MJM know who I spoke with. It wasn't a jab at the really nice guy I talked to. But I guess that might not narrow it down, since there were about a dozen folks from Delta. And they may have all been 717 pilots. I'm just stating the fact that I flopped, fumbled, was not the best I could have been.

Not sure how me making light of not being good enough, failing, fumbling, not impressing the recruiters, turned into me having a chip on my shoulder. I didn’t mean to belittle or insult the really nice guy I spoke with. I was trying to let mjmfunk know who I talked to. Out of the dozen folks from Delta they may have all been 717 pilots. So by ASSuming he was the only 717 pilot I may have made an a$$ of myself. It stings to not be accepted but I’m like a hair in a biscuit. I’ll just keep trying, wear them down, until they love me.

Hoss is correct in his assessment. A better way to post it here would have been "The delta pilot I talked too..." Instead you got snarky, and its not funny either. Most likely they saw something in the way you acted, spoke that highlighted you. I can speak with certainty as being a former hiring team member - we can see it. We see thousands of people every year. We can spot it very quickly in the person to person interview.

I'm glad they vetted you there. Good news for you is all the majors are hiring like gangbusters. Pro tip - be humble.

Do not listen to this person.

I am becoming ever more convinced HK is a troll, who intentionally tries to offend, agitate, and stir up crap for his own amusement.

Nice edit BTW. I quoted your original.

You just disagree with everything I post here. I can't help the fact you are this way and generally just a seething antagonist to me on here. Tell us, what is incorrect about my post? What is in it that is wrong? If you are going to come and make ignorant unfounded comments, have the decency to back it up with reasons and/or facts. What I posted is very good gouge. Arnie brought me into hiring before you showed up here. I think I know what I'm talking about. Anyway back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Dude, everyone is an antagonist to you here, because of the way you behave. Its the same reason why you have been given a timeout at LEAST one time in your short time with this account.
