has anyone been through the interview process before with UAL in Chicago?

Can you give me an idea of what to expect? I don't want any questions given to me or anything else that I shouldn't find out before I'm there, but I'd just like a general overview of the interview process...

thanks!
 
Interesting how UA needs to hire FA's but yet they have like 1600 pilots on furlough. They refuse to bring back the pilots. Heavens to mergatroid if they don't have all their pilots flying 950 to 1000 hours a year!

Who says they refuse to bring back pilots? We have had several people at my current company leave to return to UAL.

We have been recalling all year!

Planning to hire new pilots in 2008 at the latest.

Great to know. Are you guys gonna put everyone in that little tape recorded room while all your cronies on MARTIN LUTHER KING BLVD add up every little tenth of an hour and see whose time is .0001 off on their scantron form so they can send em back home? Are yah gonna do the sim and set the sim sensitivity based on the number of hours yah got? Crockett, nothin against you, just your company and the way they interviewed folks. I knew so many good guys that got turned down with plenty of heavy metal time, much like yourself, but they were replaced by someone who was who was considered "more qualified." I guess having 172 time does make yah more qualified. Maybe it's that carb heat or that littel suction guage that shows your experience level...I dunno.

We here ya!

I think most of the EEOC hiring is over (1989 hires make up the biggest group)
Hopefully a few "good guys" can get on the interview team and make it a fair process. It really wasn't fair at UAL or DAL, AA, NWA in the 90's

I feel your pain.
