Chill bro, they asked me "How was your attendance record?" It was a civilian captain. So i just explained the process of how if you're sick you go see the flight doc and he places you on a non flying status and you become a desk b*@#$. No sweat man.

I thought the Cog Test was relatively easy. GTA V had some missions that were way more difficult.

Lighten up, Francis.

Y'all are reading a lot into this process. Yes, DAL is very interested in attendance records. I was asked about my attendance both in military and prior 121. They just want an honest, credible answer. People get sick. Emergencies happen. If they always happen at the end of November and December, that might raise some eyebrows. If you are blessed with a job that has weekends and holidays off, they probably get that. On the other hand, if you did 3 yrs at UPT and never did weekend XCs, they might just get that also.

As a guy who is in the strange position of having interviewed twice at DAL (both times resulting in CJOs), I can say that at no time did I feel the interview process was unfair or unreasonably intrusive. Tough and stress-inducing by design, and given the relatively minor number of changes made over the past decades, I think they're happy with the process and wouldn't count on significant changes.

Maybe I haven't been keeping up with some of the other Delta threads as much as I should be and I will confess that I have only read about the last 200 pages of this thread but... I am kind of curious about the timeline after someone interviews and is offered a job. What is the typical wait time between successful interview and class date? So you got the CJO at the interview, is there a wait period for the pee test and shrink results? What does the indoc/training footprint look like? Any other useful tidbits those of you who have been through the process care to share?

Plenty of folks with some seniority or who are bidding/trip trading jedi masters haven't worked a weekend or a holiday in years either. I can't possibly imagine that flipping through someones logbook and seeing no flights logged on December 25th is disqualifying. Just answer the question. "Q: Ever called out sick on a holiday? A: Nope. Bid off every holiday I ever wanted."

Alternatively: Q: Do you ever work over holidays? A: Only when the in-laws are in town!

Heard from a friend interviewing today that 11/12 got the CJO. No other details to share.

Sojourner,

I did attend the WAI but I had already received an interview invite prior to attending to can't speak to if those in attendance have had their app scored higher.

I have a very hard time believing this is the case. About every month or two someone I know interviews and I get the full debrief. I've also been through the process this just doesn't make sense. Much like a check ride failure, it wasn't just the steep turn you busted it was the overall impression that you in.

For everybody else, keep in mind they WANT to hire you. There are many days where 11/12 or 12/12 are hired. They've been using this interview model for decades and it works very well.

Is it just me or are there a lot less updates on this thread in the last couple of months? It seems like every week we were getting updates on who got hired or not and why, now not much at all. My need for random, near useless information is suffering here.

Maybe all of the forum regulars are hired? And the noobs are unsure of themselves?

My question of the week is: When were the guys starting indoc right now given the CJO? I.E. what is the wait time?
