Thanks Flare,
Trying to make sense of it..so it looks like there where multiple airframes to ATL in this drop besides the 88?

Looks like just 20 ATL 88's. Last one went to number 53 I think out of 63 total. So a good spread.

I'm a current regional guy in the left seat. Approximately 1200 turbine pic and 5800 total. What is going to serve me better getting the invite at DAL? Getting some time in the right seat of a say a 737/320 or more pic time in a crj? I am at least 1 year from getting a check airmen spot. I have my degree with a 3.0 and took me more than 5 years. I have volunteer work, bilingual, recruitier, 6 internal recs and 2 going on 3 job fairs.

There were 20 MD88's to Atlanta, and 20 "ATL's" listed above. So it looks like 19 of the 20 ATL MD88s went before the first NYC MD88 went. I'm also amazed that the second to last guy STILL had a choice!

Gentlemen (and Ladies),
Just a question regarding what happens when a current or former pilot submits an email to HR... If the application has already been screened and scored (not because of an HR email, but because it was randomly selected), will the HR email STILL trigger another review? If the app was already placed into a tier, does it have a fresh chance to be re-tiered?
I am asking because my application wasn't that great, but I have recently gone over it with a fine toothed comb in anticipation of an HR email being sent out this week. Wondering what the chances of the app already having been scored are, or if the HR email will improve my chances.

Any word on the next round of email/invites?

According to what's on Deltanet, the email to Pilot Selection should trigger a review within 30 days, and this jives with my experience. I submitted my app last year, received a fix-it email about a week later (incomplete work history), then a buddy at Delta sent the email to Pilot Selection about a week after that, and I received an interview invite shortly thereafter.

Overall moral to the story, therefore, is to make sure your app is absolutely suitcased prior to having a Delta friend fire the email to Pilot Selection! Especially since it also states on Deltanet that you're limited to firing off the email trigger once per year per candidate.

I'm not sure anyone really knows the exact answer to your question. Take this for what it's worth because this is only what I have heard and I by no means know nothing. The HR email will trigger another review but it's my understanding that it will not be re-tiered. Once they give it a score its not likely to change much. I'm in the same boat, my app was scored and I wish I had gone over it with a fine comb to make sure it was perfect. I have since made it to be about as good as it can be. I have even had a recruiter look at my app and she loved it too. I have had several people send a letter to HR on my behalf causing it to be reviewed again but unfortunately for me, I'm still waiting since it has already been scored. Maybe my app still isn't good enough but from what I have heard, you want your app as good as it can be when they review it for the first time. Jim Graham told me he had an app that spelled magna cum laude wrong so he said he didn't believe him since he couldnt spell it right. Definitely have them send a letter on the chance it gets screened again and has what they are looking for but be prepared to hear nothing if it doesn't meet what they are looking for or if your score doesn't change. Again I am not in the know so this is just hear say!

How do you know it had been scored?

Flycameron

You don't unless you ask the right person. I met the VP and he took my resume, which is almost certain to get your app scored. I also asked Ak and he said my app had been scored. I went to 2 job fairs and they tell you that will get your app scored. So after all of that I had a few friends send a letter to HR which will get it pulled and looked at again but it would appear that once it's scored its not likely to change much unless you have some big changes on your app like checkairman, a masters degree or another type rating. I would have thought the more they looked at it the more you would score but networking has not seemed to work for me at all. Some of my friends that got an invite showed me their app and it would appear that their app was pristine when it was scored, which could have been one of the variables that helped them to get the invite.

I wish I could delete my app and start over with a fresh score since I fear that once they do the first review, that score really sticks to your app. I again am a guy on the outside looking in so I'm just telling you my experience but in no way am a part of the process.
