America West Interviews

[68pilot]

They are accepting resumes, but they are not giving out apps. I think there is probably plenty of stacks of apps. at the HR dept. as-is. If I hear any different, I'll post.
By the way, a letter of rec. by an AWA pilot who you've flown with is pretty important. I didn't have one, and it took six years of bugging them to get an interview!
Good luck

You can't go by the website. I talked to HR friday and they said they are collecting resumes and the next round of applications will be sent out in January. If a resume has a letter of rec. from an AWA pilot, they are guaranteed an app.

Good Luck.

America West Interview?

Anyone heard of more interview dates other than October 27th? I had a AWA interview set up in September but had to CNX a few days before due to obligations to my present employer. Does anybody know if HP will call me again to reschedule for another interview date or did I bloew it? I've called HR at AWA and written a letter explaining my situation, but I have heard nothing. I really want to join AWA....does anyone have any input to my situation?

Thanks:

SNA:

If you haven't physically talked to anyone, I would keep calling until you actually talk to someone and get an answer. Your persistence will pay off -- not to mention ease your mind.

Based on other peoples' experiences, the best time to get in touch with the fine folks in Recuritment & Selection is Mondays, Wednesdays, or Fridays. They schedule most interviews on Tuesadays and Thursdays and aren't in the office much on those days.

Good luck!

Pond,

Thanks for the great advice! Persistence did pay off....I called this morning (Monday) and received a phone call back from HR this afternoon. I have rescheduled my interview for later this month.

I'm looking forward to this opportunity. Anyone with recent AWA interview info please share your experience!!!

Good luck everyone...

Letters of Rec A Must

Try to get a letter of Rec from an AWA pilot. Those are getting the most consideration.

I am interested in sending a resume to America West. Whom should the letter be addressed? CP? or perhaps an HR person? If anyone knows the persons name and spelling, please pass it on.
