In the Pool at ACC

[Bushhatesyou]

Interviewed on Mon. and was told at the end of the day that I was in the pool! I was wondering, how long into training before you find out what base you will get? Thnx

Usually right before the sim

You really won't have much of an idea til done with training, which is usually when you start getting bid sheets sent to you with all the new FO openings. Our company has a fairly steady rate of attrition due to upgrades and FO's leaving for regionals, so there will be positions available. If you do get drafted into a base you don't like, I guarantee you'll have the opportunity to move... base hopping really isn't that uncommon. Congrats on the job, this is a good company to work for. I spent about 2 months in the pool before class.

Our class which was the most recent didn't find out until after we had been released from training and were home....

I went swimming in that pool for about 2 weeks. Good company, interview was fun, but waiting on a sic turbo prop job = not so fun. So i took another job and dried off from the pool. Last info I heard, you not gunna find out a base till the last second.

Thanks for the info! The interview was abnout as laid back as you could get which was nice.

If I were to end up getting charter, can I live where I want? Also I assume I would be responsible for my own lodging while waiting to get called on a trip?

On your days off (9) you do whatever you want and on your days on they cover lodging and what not except food which you get per diem for.

I recently notified ACC that I wouldn't be attending the April 13th class, so there is an oppening for someone else.

letter

Hate to jump forum, but! I interviewed with acc on the 6th. They said we would get a letter in 10-14 days for a pool. Is this good, bad, or neutral. Do they always tell you on the spot if you get hired, or do some people get hired through phone call or letter? Thanks!!
