ae looking for previous 121 and turbine experience now because they are out there. shortsighted in my opinion because they will be the first to bug out. I suggested they put everyone in a pool and draw down from the most desirable (their criteria not mine) a la SWA.

Well good luck to everyone else in the pool. Just received a rejection letter today via certified mail. Yeah, not email. Not really sure what to make of it, since everyone else seems to have just received an email.
Why? I have no idea. Interviewed 3rd week of Feb.

Sorry to hear about your rejection letter brother. This has been the most miserable decade in aviation. Hang in there!

Don't sweat it, there will be many more opportunities as the industry begins to hire again. For the sake of information to others, did you have anything in your background or failed checkrides of ANY kind??

I felt really good about both my tech and HR, felt I could have done BETTER on the sim portion, but didn't think it went BAD. And if it was BAD, why didn't they tell me to leave that day? Why ask for all that additional paperwork, etc, and then pay almost $6.00 to send me certified mail to reject me 6 weeks later?
Moving on...

The only thing would be a failed Private Part 61 in high school. Driving history totally clean, everything else clean. They brought it up for about 2 seconds on my tech interview but when I started to explain it and said it was a small FBO back home while I was in high school the interviewer cut me off and said "ok, enough said, no big deal, nothing to worry about." So I really don't think that was it.

Right now it is very, very hard to get a job flying airplanes and getting rejected doesn't really mean anything. My company recently hired a few people and had hundreds of qualified applicants as I understand it. And many companies hire folks based not on minutiae like a failed check ride 10 years ago or something like that but rather on how that person likes you that day.
Keep trying. Things will pick up again.
