I only provided 10 years of work history, and Delta wanted it back to high school. That said, a friend of mine was already in training at SWA when Delta sent him his fix-it email. He deleted the email and made no changes, and 3 days later got an offer to interview.


Is your buddy Coma?

I'd like to think he is, but that is not who I was referring to.

MikeF16 congrats man, but I hope you're joking about your seniority. With a 0XXX SSN, you'll be on the bottom of the class list, I'll be pretty low on the list as well as Arnie Kraby's assistant spelled it out for us in the waiting room.

I interviewed a week ago. 6 out of 8 got the CJO. The day before us 4 out of 8 got it. The break-down was 3 regionals (Expressjet, Envoy and Shuttle America), 1 Virgin America, 1 corporate and 3 military. Nobody asked how many hours everyone had, but they seemed on par with one another. 2 out of the 3 military guys were in their 40's and retiring from military.

I've had my app in since 2011, never got a fix it or any other email till the invitation for the interview. Was offered an interview date a week from phone call or 6 weeks.... I obviously chose the 6 week option. Studied like hell and felt very prepared (not confident) for all the exams. I have 7700 Total, 4500 Turbojet, 3100 PIC, 3.8 GPA, 2 LORs on file but no internals, only one stop sign violation on record (half the people I interviewed with had many on their record... this isn't a big deal as long as we're not talking 8-12+)

Exactly, no decision to make. If I'm lucky enough to get hired I'll get what I get without stressing over the decision .

I really think GPA is the reason for no interview yet. I have not heard of one person get an interview that has less than a 3.6 GPA yet. Unless they are well connected the norm right now seems to be 3.6 or higher.

I would think a 3.1 Engineering would be adjusted to at least a 3.8 in most other majors..??

It's so great to see new people coming aboard. Welcome to all the flow ups, SSPs, and off the street hires. Great to have you at Delta.

I am requaling on the 7ER right now and the word from the new hires is that they are interviewing top 5% of the applicants. The system scores your application and the addendum section has some weight to it. So, the moral of the story is, fill in all the blanks and put as much info about yourself in the addendum as you can. That may push the application over the magic point.

Good luck to everyone and it is SOOOOO nice to see new hires on the property.

1000 more new hires next year.
