Application Question

[Riddle momma]

Does attending training at an airline constitute mentioning it in the previous employer category? I attended training but quit halfway through. Do I need to put that in future applications?

Thanks a million!

If you were employed... ie. they paid you during that training you must declare it.

If you were paid then yes, this may raise a "few" questions during the interview. Why did you "quit"?. I believe that this is part of the PRIA act anyways so "potential" employer probably is going to know about it anyways even if you leave it off...

Yeah . . . .

. . . it comes under "employment" on the application, if you were paid. If not, you still have to account for your time.

Seeing a "quit" from an airline after only a short time may well raise some eyebrows. Be prepared to explain what happened. It has been suggested that for such situations "To be explained at the interview" should be written in the Reason For Leaving box on the app. Don't give them any reason to reject you until you have a chance to explain it personally.

Good luck with your job search.

I would also substitute the word "quit" with "resigned". Nobody likes a quitter.
