How do you get "the news?"

[B727FA]

Hey folks, do you know how they generally give the news at NJA--I assume good you get a call and bad you get an email/letter?

Your assumption is correct.

They don't actually give out the news, they make you sweat until you don't think there is any hope then out of the blue comes a phone call...

close...they wait till u sign a $50,000 training contract with someone else flying a bravo or something.....then they call you.

 

[say again]

Are you expecting some "news" soon?

Oh, good. So my feeling of utter despair and worthlessness is a good sign...excellent! :erm:

 

[B727FA]

Yes...was really hoping to hear by today, but guess it's tomorrow. Damn you Magic 8 ball...lies, all LIES I tell you! :angryfire

 

[B727FA]

Your assumption is correct.

Ok, so I figure, here's my plan: I'll put a block on my email so that I can't get the email...then they'll have to call me and there, I'm in like Flynn! Nice...

how long you been waiting?

 

[B727FA]

2.5 years...seriously, that's how long it's been since they've hired into the DA-2000. But I've been submitting since April (the positions were approved Late Spring). I was called in late AUG and interviewed in Sept...brought to CMH on 1 Oct. Now waiting for word on a 3 Nov class date...need to give notice (I hope!).

your holding out for a new hire falcon spot???


lol ok...keep waiting.....should be any time now....

727FA,

Don't worry, I get it. The hiring of flight attendant applicants is different from the pilots. So must of us are not familiar with their notification process. I'd bet you'll know very soon though. Good luck!
