I doubt that.

They probably noticed some errors on the app and are getting their hr gurus to review it so they don't get sued.

I started it and quit it three times somehow thinking I messed it up. Last time through, I just just finished it as best as I could. The sad thing is, the US Air reps I talked to at WIA and OBAP, admitted the application was jacked up, and that was the old ones!

Honestly I hope they are embarrassed by another sub par product. Maybe this latest SNAFU gets them to use another third party application company.

Dude, I've been holding back but you are the most negative person on the forums re: Airways. Why don't you just take a step back and go chill out. From the merger not happening ever to the suing of the hr, I think you need to chill.

I think US Air is aware of the issues with their application process. I just got this email today.

Thank you for your recent application to our First Officer position. Because of updates made to our online application process, we are requesting that you re-apply to our newest requisition, which was posted today, Saturday, September 21st. You can apply using the following link:
https://usairways.greatjob.net/jobs/...S&reqId=186942
We regret any inconvenience this may cause, and appreciate your continued interest in US Airways.
Thank you,
US Airways

I am thinking those questions at the beginning are a test of attention to detail and direction following abilities.

What do they ask?

How's the new app? Any better?

It's slightly better. Some of the questions are relevant to pilots now. Many questions are still too vague. When you discover through the app what they were looking for on a previous question you can't go back. Oh well

True, the vague questions make it confusing at times. Anyone interviewed know if they reference that portion ? Or just the application?

Thanks.

Am I the only person who gets the "Your session has timed out, you will have to start the application again" error message?!?! It occurs at different times each time...I even tried going with Firefox vs IE and it does it. Matter of fact I was just 91% complete and thought I FINALLY made it and then this error message popped up. When it does if I click OK it kicks me completely out! I tried just going back using the back arrow filling the info out and then going forward again, but no luck. Needless to say it's really cool and I'm having lot of fun with it
