I applied 8/28 and had the same experience as above, didnt get the dreaded email.

Talking to a friend over there I don't know that a merger necessarily means a stop to hiring. Much like CAL and UA there is going to be a fence for some time until SLI. During that time guys are still going to be retiring and will need to be replaced. That's not a guarantee but something to think about.

But with four furloughs to my name I might not have a clue what I'm talking about.

No interview yet..

For those who got the "thanks, but no thanks" email/letter. How long between application submission to rejection notice?

Applied 8/29, still under review with no "thanks but no thanks” letters.

2 types, 7000TT, 4000 121-TPIC, no LCA, 2 internals and I’ve spent time in the pipe organ cactus desert.

I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but is it impossible right now to re-apply? I have gotten the rejection email 3 times already from them, and usually can re-apply. But this time, I keep getting a "welcome back" screen, after the initial page.

I sure wish I could get them to call. I keep hearing stories from guys who applied then forgot, getting the call. 6500TT with 3000 121 PIC isn't enough? I even had a friend walk me into the assistant chief pilot in PHL for a face to face a few months back. Nothing!! Is there a secret password lol?

As I understand it if there is a new job req. you can re-apply. I find it interesting your times are close to mine but you've received a rejection letter and I have not.

I got the no thanks email and was able to reapply on 1/2, using my same email and application info. It now says "under review".

Earlier, there was talk about how US Air picks those to interview, apparently done by an outside company and apparently all done randomly.

I don't know how true that is, but I can't imagine a company would select applicants randomly, and not sure how much I would want to work at a company that does.

But, I have read many guys, with a lot of hours, types and experience not getting calls and those with the bare mins are getting calls. That's all anecdotal, but kinda supports the random pulling of applications for interviews that was explained earlier in the thread.

I had to reschedule my interview and they said they didn't have any more open slots. That could be the reason why many are not getting the call.

They told my friend the same thing when he got the call. He had to make sure he could get off for the interview. He was told that there were only two slots left and if he couldn't do it, they weren't sure when they could get him another slot. Many of our co-workers continued to get the call for weeks after so I wouldn't take to much heart in that.
