Hiring on the spot

[FoxyWhiskey]

If you happen to get an offer at airline X the day you actually interview, and you continue to interview elsewhere (because you're 1st choice interview follows airline X a couple of weeks later) how is that working these days?

Are agreements (or training contracts) being signed on the spot, or are you given some time before you actually have to commit?

Just curious.....

This isn't Cuba. Regional airlines can't keep their pet mice in the crew room from leaving or even getting them to show up for training. You don't have to sign anything and if they insisted, walk to the next booth and tell them to "watch this".

I was offered the job same day at RAH. I received an email of the conditional offer of employment which included the training contract, which I will then bring to ground school. You're not locked in until you fill out a W4 and they start paying you, and the training contract isn't valid until you COMPLETE ground.

I was offered the job on the spot at Mesaba. I signed an acceptance letter while there but it isn't binding in any way...it's not the army

I'd say nod, smile, tell them you're excited and to let you know when class starts. Then go to the other interview and if all goes well, call the first one and cancel.
