Bzzt

Unfortunately the company currently called "American Eagle" gets their new name after the merger closes. I wonder which carrier will actually get the rest of those aircraft.

Bzzt

There are exceptions to every rule.

Is eagle CX interviews?

Have you called and asked them? If you actually worked for Eagle you would have access to their contact info. You obviously don't even work here. I still think you're a recruiter for another airline playing dirty games, you and BZZT.

I have a friend interviewing on the 19th. So, they aren't canceling interviews.

I am 100% positive they are in the office and taking resumes, interviewing, hiring, etc. I won't try to speculate any further but I know for a fact they are around and still hiring as of about 11:30 am CT.

Yes, they are.

I for one have stopped entertaining RJ Pilot's posts a long time ago which is why I don't respond to any of them. Even if it is to discredit them. Same goes for Bzzt.

Interviewing on the 16th if I can get of this #*)ing oil rig.
(currently working as an engineer for oil company)

If I am unable to get off this platform, what is the best way to explain that to AE?

Just call and say I'm stuck on an oil rig because my relief broke his leg and I'm stuck out here til next year unless my boss conjures up a fresh engineer (looking more unlikely by the day)?

I was supposed to be back in Denver on the 12th, have a couple days at home before flying to Dallas.

Work says they are getting me off this rig, but I'm kind of losing faith in that daily.

I interviewed recently and got a class date. Looks like they are running 2 classes a month (2 planned for Jan as far as i know). Now how many peeps are showing I have no idea.

The question is, how desperate are they to hire people? I feel like the hiring practices at Eagle are stuck in the 90's. I interviewed with 8 and 3 of us got the offer, of the 3 how many passed the captains review board I don't know beyond myself.
The interview is a real dog and pony show, and they kick people out for the smallest mistakes. Now I get it, they have high standards because they want excellent people in the seats, but to show so many qualified applicants the door so soon? Strange when they say they need warm bodies.

I know some people are dogging Mesa for phone interviews and email offers but if you have the qualifications shouldn't ground school/ sim training / IOE be the real interview? I think Mesa has an good strategy going on and it maybe the only way to get enough people online when mass hiring in necessary and supply is dwindling.

I guess what I'm getting at is I was less then impressed with the interview experience at Eagle. Don't get me wrong everyone was super friendly and I really enjoyed speaking with the line captains during my daylong event of sitting in a holding tank and fighting through red tape. It's 2013, and all that could have been done easily via facetime while I was sitting in a hotel on the road somewhere.

So for these reasons alone it doesn't surprise me that they didn't make 600 in 2013, the hiring practices alone just wont support that.
