UPS App.

[hyeflyin]

I had an interview with UPS last month and I was trying to access my application online. However, it does not let me view my app. and it shows the status as on file and no update required. Just wondering if anyone has had the same problem. Thanks.

Yea it's a little quirk of UPS online app. That happened to me when I applied for a handler position, in fact for some reason it wouldn't let me apply for another location. I emailed UPS application to tell them, they never replied but I noticed that after a few days the problem was fixed.

Hiflynn,
It is standard procedure for them to do that after the interview. You can only change the info on the first page (phone number, address changes). The rest you can look at but can't touch.

it gets even better:
i applied as soon as the new on-line app came out. updated in nov. tried to update in dec, gone. the ssn is no longer in the system. it told me to first do the pre-screen, then apply. i did the pre-screen and it says we have your info, thanks. any suggestions????????????????

That is the way that it works. It is a random process now. They may have pulled your app, and it is in limbo. When an app is pulled it cannot be updated until they are done looking at it and calling in the interviewees. This may all be bs but that is what one of their CP's told me.

 

[LARRY H. JUNIOR]

also, is it true that in order to get an ups interview now, it is all based on a scoring system, ignoring internal recommendations?

just what i heard, ups uses a scoring system to mark the apps. they call pilots in from the apps score alone, not any recommendations. then once called in the recommendations count a lot. is this true, or just bs????

Chris90721,
It wont even let me look at the first page. When I click on the blue link, it just gives me a message saying "thank you for your interest, no update needed at this time". I wonder if I should let HR know about it or just wait for the letter first?

Heyflyin - the purpose of the online application is to get an interview. You just interviewed, why do you need to log in again?

Also, since you interviewed you must have submitted all the additional information they ask for in the “you’ve been invited section” right? So why do you need to log in again?

from what I understand, if you never interviewed and it won't let you enter any of your data, it's because you didn't meet the minimum requirements (FE written, TT, PIC time, etc).

Once you interview, it doesn't let you change anything after the interview

I heard the very same; if you do not meet their minimums when you apply, in effect your application gets “locked out.” Not sure how to reset it except maybe apply again with a different email address or just contact them and let them know that now you do meet their minimums?

Once you interview, it doesn't let you change anything after the interview.

That's what I heard as well and it really sounds kind of strange for someone to try to change his/her “pre-interview” information AFTER an interview. Doesn't it?

Well, not if you're trying to add flight time, you've moved or got a new type rating.

Still don't get it. Online application serves one purpose only - to get you an interview. If you already interviewed and are in the pool your score will not change whether you get an additional 10 type ratings or add an additional 1,000 hours of pic time (as told by a recruiter at an Airinc job fair). Your score is based on your interview itself so what’s the purpose of updating it AFTER an interview?

As far as moving - that information is supposed to be corrected in the "you've been invited in" section I believe.

Well I meet the mins, but I had to change my email address to reapply/update my profile. However, once I signed out, it would not let me back on! Who know's.....Hopefully, Brown can do FOR ME!!!

C5-Mem – with your background, I’d say attend one of the job fairs and you’ll probably get a call within months if not weeks.

Of the two I’d recommend women-in-aviation because it got me a job (I’m a guy! ) and I think it’s much better organized than AirInc, but I’d say go to any of the two and you should be in very soon.

Also, lots of Guard members at UPS (and FedEx of course). If you have an online recommendation from one of them, see if he/she can “introduce you” to HR folks at one of the conferences. Good luck!

Received an e mail from UPS today, to the effect that the flight officer position I applied for was filled. Anyone else receive an e mail in the past few days to that end?

Does it mean a slow down in hiring, purge of the app's, any ideas?

 

[cbeyw]

Hey Russ how long ago did you put your app. on file?

 

[Plunder Hound]

I think they got rid of the Flight Officer opening, the second officer position is still open. Just a guess.
