This really is good advice, although I realize it’s easier said than done. I was in the pool for 3.5 years (albeit UPS had stopped hiring for a large chunk of that). One thing I learned during that time is you have to move forward with your life. If you spend every moment festering about when...
Insecurities? Hmmm, I’ll have to think about that one.
No one ever said don’t send your resume to more than one company. For me, UPS has always been my goal and I am both lucky and happy to be here.
With regard to your statements, “you run the risk of saying no to one carrier” and “let the...
I guess everyone has individual circumstances, but I know I’d never be able to look my recommendations in the eye again if I'd done something similar.

I’ve always loved that one!
But seriously, while the results of the current system bid might have some relevance with regard to where the new-hires are positioned within the next class, I doubt they are waiting to contact people with class date offers because of the bid.
The class will have...
Yum! Brands has a Chief Pilot and line captain position advertised on Hotjobs. Might be worth checking out:

Honestly, I don’t know if it’s an ego thing or what, but after many years of trying (and several years in the pool) I recently started my dream job at Brown. And yes, I’m on the panel. Barring any major economic catastrophes, I’ve (hopefully) got the job from which I'll retire.
Since being...

FedEx is larger than UPS? In terms of number of aircraft and overnight letter deliveries, yes.
But UPS has greater annual revenue, greater net income and 100,000+ more employees.

I interviewed in mid 2001 and was placed in the pool. I interviewed again in late 2004 and was hired. My stuff was in for several years before I was called in 2001.

Seniority in your class will be assigned by age. Oldest = most senior.
No, new hires in class do not get their pick of aircraft. It will be assigned to you. However, the next classes will probably have a mix of FO’s and SO’s. They might ask if you want to be an FO vs. SO, but I’m simply...
That may be true of the day you interviewed, but bear in mind UPS is all about diversity. Your class will be constructed to represent an varied mix of age, background, race and experience.
Since classes are generated from the total pool, there will more than likely be a handful of younger...
Looks like afpa said they are NOT done calling.
Seniority in class at UPS is determined by age. Oldest = most senior.
I assume you mean age or flight time? Flight time does not factor into seniority.
