Delta hiring executive

[ACL65PILOT]

It is simple, if a guy is willing to write you one, make him understand that it means a lot less without that address attached to it. It does not even ping the system as a Delta LOR.

I'm assuming DAL still has a one-and-done policy. Has there been any change to that?

I heard they got rid of the shrink...that's what did me in a few years ago.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

From what I have heard, yes, fail the panel once and you are done. That goes for last hiring waves as well.

TurboCheez is obviously new to FI... 5 posts and seems that he was doing some networking for his client... anyway for the record as a MOD.. no such information or identifying information is allowed to be posted in Flight info... shold someone wish to assit, then use the Private message (PM) system here to do so..

I would highly advise our new members to ready the Terms of Service here that outline the rules by which we play here in the FI sandbox..

Thank you for the guidance. This client is not looking for a flying job but is planning to start a pilot job bank in competition with the many already out there. PM would be fine if someone knows the answer to my question.

cheers,

Is it true that people have gotten interviews with no LOR's? Just hearing that as rumor would make my day.

I feel somedays having grown up in an aviation family or gone to an aviation school means more than having worked through the ranks at a small flight school and multiple regionals, and that depresses me.

fwiw, I didn't have one internal rec when I was hired at DAL in '08. I didn't have any family members in a single aviation related field either.

Thanks cq43vt17t, always makes me feel good to hear success stories. I'll keep my fingers crossed and resume updated.

There are always a few with no LOR's that get the call. It makes it fair and fall within the letter of the law.

How many pilots is Delta hiring this year, 240 or more? I have heard up to 600.

Thank you.

"Officially" 305. I would not be "surprised" to see a lot more than that, but that truly depends on which way the economy goes. They are being cautious.
