DL New Hire Question

[ASAFLY2]

For those who have been recently hired by DL, how long did you have to wait for the class date call after your interview?

I hate to tell you but they are not putting people in class based on when they interviewed. Military guys will go first, and then everyone else. They see many of them as a flight risk to FedEx etc. if they do not get them on property quickly.
Most wait an average of 6-10 weeks to start class. There is not much of a pool not with the 70 per month that they are bringing in.

Of course the mil guys deserve to go first.....wink, wink
Seriously though, are they really using that logic to fill their training classes?
