UPS Announces Hiring

[767pilot]

I know he's Management, but Chris isn't exactly a dunce. I know him pretty well after our upgrades together....

I never met the guy, I was thinking of our other favorite manager up there. Yo uare right though, when I look at the Z bid package with all of it's anc starts and stops, I too wonder why we don't have a domicile up there. I suspect at one point we are going to see some sort of a large re-allignment with some consideration given to right sizing (could be up or down) ONT and MIA

100% agreed. Look at the (diminishing- now down to about 12) ONT Pac Rim lines. The pilots take 1-2 days to DH over; 1-2 day back. I think ONT int'l flying will be gone in the near future, the exception maybe being the ONT-HNL-SYD-TPE-ANC-ONT pairing.

If there were an ANC domicile any ideas if it would bid senior/Junior?

My guess is that an ANC domicile would go very junior.

Right now the junior domicile at UPS is MIA 757/767, and that's a far easier commute than Alaska.

Who said anything about commuting ! ;-)

 

[Clyde]

Thanks Clyde. I appreciate the info.

No problem, anything I can do to help. If you have any more questions, I'll do the best I can do to answer them for you. Um, as long as I'm in town. Take care and best of luck to you,

Just like ANC, there are a fair amount of trips that begin or end in RFD.

When will they start calling the poolies?

 

[767pilot]

Why wait for them to call you?

 

[armyjets]

I'm not going to call them... You call them... Hey let's get Mikey!

I heard today that flightops HR is going to require all poolies to reinterview. UPS' pool has always been a competetive pool, not a FIFO.

If it is the whole interview all over again, that prettty much sucks. It's been a while for some of the folks, so I would sort of expect some sort of a meet and greet, but to do it all over again blows IMNSHO

 

[BIGBROWNDC8]

The most Jr Domicile is SDF DC-8 FE , SDF 747 FE and SDF 727 FE, not MIA FO however MIA is pretty Jr. As far as Jr FO positions, A-300, 757 Intl and 757 Domestic all in SDF are Jr to MIA, but only with a few numbers.

Interviews start next week from what my bud tells me who is in the pool. Im not sure of the format, but I think these guys (UPS) is going to run everyone through the ringer all over again. The best way to ensure success is to plan as if it is the big show and if its just a meet and greet, good on ya mate... Good Luck to all

I talked with a manager last night. He said that they were trying to get together a class of DC8 engineers for the first week of November, He said that ground school could handle it and the HR hiring people could handle it, but someone someplace else in the buracracy needed some more time
