NetJets April Interviewees -- Hired calls or letters yet?

[jherk02]

Whatever is going on with those interviewed since late April and not sent a letter is flat out wrong when compared to the expectations set by past practices. I truly feel sorry for you guys in this position. I guess you can take solice in the fact that you are still in the running. I wish they would at least offer formal feedback by creating a hiring pool. Perhaps there is a legal risk to doing that.

My biggest fear is that this is an early indicator of the impact of fuel prices on the business.

Good Luck.

That's nothing. When I interviewed at ABX over ten years ago, it took well over three months to receive a job offer. I always say, "No news is good news."

 

[twiddle]

I interviewed in early May, got the unofficial "making you an offer" email but still no call. Then today I saw on aviatoninterviews.com two posts from folks who interviewed in late May and have start dates for July and August. I don't understand what's going on!

For those without a subscription, here"s the important parts:

Date of interview: May 29, 2008
Date interview was submitted: June 16, 2008
Were you hired as a result of this interview? yes
What is your age? 33
What aircraft were you assigned? Don't know yet
If you were hired what is your training date? August 01, 2008

Date of interview: May 22, 2008
Date interview was submitted: June 06, 2008
Were you hired as a result of this interview? yes
What is your age? 47
What aircraft were you assigned? unknown
If you were hired what is your training date? July 31, 2008

 

[DAS at 10/250]

Just an observation, the above two examples have 2 months time between interview and class dates. I had my offer six days after the interview ( which included a delay for the XMAS break) and I had to give notice to my company the same day that I was offered the job to be able to give two weeks. It APPEARS that maybe the hiring is out pacing the training department at this time. 32 in INDOC!?! Holy crap. We had 10 back in January.

I feel for those waiting. However, this place is worth the wait!

Best of luck.

I'm not saying that they are lying, but July 31st is a Thursday, and August 1st, is a Friday. Seems like most classes start on a Monday.

Don't get all worked up now. The first of the two posts says "he will be starting SOMETIME in August, he had gotten the CONDITIONAL GOOD email." The other one also said nothing about any calls from NJ, but only emails of "acceptance" and "no thanks" from his interview group.
I guess some people are more optimistic about a conditional "yes or good" than others. I have been fourloughed twice during training, I will count my coins when I am actually sitting in class.

The first one was mine, and as indicated, I said I got a conditional offer. I'm an optimist, and I'm just going off what Derinda told me. Don't worry my manimp: ...no one is getting class dates before you.

 

[twiddle]

I guess the fact that you included a class date of August 1st sparked my curiosity. It's hard to stay focused, the wait is driving my crazy!

 

[FishNorFlyN]

I agree with you, twiddle. The wait is driving me nuts (everything changed so drastically after April 22???). I really want to move my high schoolers before school starts in August, but I need the "official" class start date before we do anything permanent. I just wish they were communicating with us more. Can't wait to be part of NJ!

Avro, maybe you should start another one of those threads about the I-Phone

I would definitely say that hiring is out pacing training. We had 23 in our class in early April. The longest wait I have heard of for a "no" letter is 2 to 3 weeks. If you are past that and haven't heard anything I would think you are in the "unofficial" pool. Like others have said, no news is good news.

Who is going to be the first one to bite the bullet and email Derinda again to find out when the phone calls are going to start going out? It's been two weeks now since I got the email saying to expect a call and I am starting to think it is time to check back in. Opinions?

I received the app accepted email so long ago I forgot when it was. I recently updated after I completed another type rating, but I dont expect to hear anything for quite some time. Any movement at all would be encouraging.

Call. You are not going to lose the job because you're "bothering" her. You're asking a very valid question.

She is very nice and you will probably have a response within minutes.

I have had mine in since last November. Still nothing with 1 letter.
