Comair pool?

[Shark]

Bryanps did you get a phone call or another letter, and i guess you got it recently

 

[Looking4Traffic]

Congrats Bryan

Congratulations Bryan. Have you heard from anyone else in the
2/19 or 2/20 interview classes?

 

[Bryanps]

Shark, when I got the letter I had already planned on being out of town, so I called Sharon and told her I would be gone and gave her my cell. She told me what class she was trying to fill, so I said , sign me up. I did hear from one other person from the 19th that is also in the 31 march calss.

Comair Class

Interviewed on 2-18, got the "congrats" letter on 3-3, Sharon called last week and offered a 3-31 class. Got the confirmation in the mail today that I'm in the class.

For those of you wondering about how to score an interview, I too got mine by attending the AIR INC job fair in Dallas and speaking face-to-face with a recruiter. I also got interviews with Colgan and ASA last fall after speaking to their recruiters at the D.C. job fair. I am not saying you need to give $ to Kit Darby to get a job. I'm just saying that for me, the cost of the Dallas job fair was worth it many times over. I'm sure my resume would have gotten lost in the stack had I not attended.

Good luck to you all.

Congrats to all those in the upcoming class. I can only assume that the people that interviewed on the 20th and 21st are next...maybe April sometime? Keep your fingers crossed!

I interviewed on the 18th, received congrats letter on the 4th. I have not heard from Comair since. Any idea as to how they fill the classes?

 

[Looking4Traffic]

I was told by someone at Comair that they try to have a mix of
people in each class (i.e. some civilian, some military, some high
time, some lower time). I have also heard that it helps if most of
your background check is near done by the time they call you up.
But it's all hearsay and conjecture. I'm confident that we're all
going to be down there training soon. Good luck.

Good news!!!!

Sharon called me today (25 March) and said I would be in the April, 28 class.

I got my interview from the Air-Inc seminar on 27 January, then interviewed on 19 February, got the congrats letter on 3 March, and finally the call for class on 25 March for a 28 April start date.

I cant wait. Good luck to everyone else!!!

 

[Looking4Traffic]

Congrats

Congratulations Roadrot!

Any word on classes between 3/31 & 4/28? Heard from anyone else from interviews on 2/19, 2/20 or 2/21?

Best of luck.

Congrats Roadrot! Anyone else hear anything? I'm dying to start training. Hey Comair, CALL ME!!!

 

[Shark]

just heard from someone in my interview group getting the call for class on April 21 with a class size of 8
we interviewed on the 20th of Feb.

sitting patiently waiting for the phone to ring

 

[Homer Jay]

My phone just rang!!!! Oh, just a salesman... Hang in there my fellow poolies. We'll get called soon. I have to admit though, the waiting is brutal!

 

[watcinco]

I interviewed on Feb 20, was notified the 11th of Mar that I was accepted and called on Mar 24 to tell me that I am in an Apr 21st class. The notice of acceptance was postmarked Feb 28...so it took 12 days in the mail to get to me...talk about slow mail! But the package got here overnight telling me what I need to bring with me to the class etc. I am looking forward to starting training!

 

[roadrot]

Question?

The congrats letter says something about "info packet requarding the exact class date and housing."

Does that mean Comair provides some sort of housing while at class or would it be only available places to rent?

thanks

 

[Hovernut]

Housing

You get the 1st week free at the Radisson. There are a few apts in Burlington...just south of the airport...that are worth looking into. Mine has 6-month lease with a roomy 2BR/2BA, both BR's with walk-in-closets for $735. 15 min to the training center or employee lot!

Welcome aboard!

 

[roadrot]

Thanks for the info and it is great to be part of the team.

 

[watcinco]

Hovernut,

Is the week pay only at the Radisson and only for the first week of training? In other words if I get there early and get an apartment will they reimburse me the equivalent of what they pay everyone else? Or am I just on my own then? Are they Burlington apartments in the traffic pattern for noise? Thanks

Staring At The Phone

My phone just rang! Nevermind . . . it was just Homer Jay telling me that a salesman just called him.

I've got a pretty intense love/hate relationship going on with my phone right now.

It sounds like they haven't quite made it to the 2/21 interview people yet but I'm pleased to hear that there's a class on 4/21 AND 4/28.

Good news.

 

[Shark]

all this waiting is kinda like being a kid a Christmas

 

[roadrot]

I know what you mean. With the jobs so hard to get, we are on pins and needles at every stage.
