Actually no. A buddy interviewed last year and had some personal stuff going on, needed to push class dates a bit and tried to be forthcoming about it. Ultimately didn’t get the offer and I believe this was a factor.

I didn't notice an available date on the app when I filled it out, but that may have changed. When I interviewed, they asked if I had any questions. I mentioned that if they were to extend me a job offer, I would greatly appreciate if they were able to give me a class date a few months in the future for personal reasons. They were happy that I mentioned that, and even happier to accommodate me. They said that the only restriction was that the class they offered couldn't be more than 6 months after your interview.

That's pretty awesome, I didn't mean to come off the way I did but it's really great that you're in a good spot already because you can't lose either way. If you want to work at Spirit, I hope they give you what you ask for so you can be around for your very important life event.

I don't see how that's possible, once you get a call with an offer, at the end of the call, you discuss when you can start. I was asked if I had any obligations to take of. I told her I will need a month before I start class. This your friend get an offer first? or did he tell them during the interview?

I delayed for two months due to prior commitments. I was up front about it in the interview as I didn't expect to get the call that quick. You can delay up to six months, just be up front about it.
