I understand that the guys in the current pool are supposed to be on property by Dec. They have been swimming since the summer of '04.

I've got the current mins around here somewhere, they are different than they are on airlineapps.com. If I can scrounge them up I will post them.

Hey Animal Tale -

I had an interview last September, but got cancelled. Do you think it would be okay to call HR to see if I might get another call? I'm dying to know, but I don't want to be "that guy"!

Calling FRNT

The Pilot Recruiter's name is Gary - just call and ask for him in HR and they'll be glad to put you through. And, to clarify, we will be taking on a total of 80 - 30 or so from the pool, and then another 50 who are not yet in the pool.

Good luck to all - this is a cool place, worth waiting for!

CALL HIM EVERYDAY. GO SEE HIM. DO everything you can to get his attention.

Good Luck

Be careful. Ambition is an admirable quality, but too much may produce a negative result. The fact you previously had an interview scheduled that was cancelled is something HR is aware of. I think your best option is to state your continued desire to serve Frontier in writing. Furthermore, Priority Mail envelopes cost about two dollars and they stand out in a good way by showing the level of importance this means to you. Your response to being notified of the cancellation was the best opportunity to ensure another interview in the future. How did you respond to the bad news?
AnimalTale is someone I respect and know to have professional qualities others can only emulate. While his approach may work for others, the same cost me two years of seniority.

Thanx for the advice, sending a letter sounds a little more my speed. I REALLY don't want to do anything to risk a possible phone call. A lady named Fran called me to notify me of the cancellation. She just said they would resume sometime this year and to keep updating so I am!

Does F9 actually look into the Airline Apps service to get their candidates?

 

[crashpad]

Good luck ATR, hope to see you soon.
I believe it is still the ONLY source from which candidates are selected.

That's how I applied last year, and was called for an interview 2 weeks later. I knew no one at the company at the time. I'm in the pool, and keep my phone numbers, addresses, etc. updated on that site. According to Gary in HR, they check the Airline Apps site for that contact information. I called him a couple of times this year, and he checked the site while we were on the phone to confirm changes I had made.

ATR: The HR people are very nice and easy to talk to, but I have only called every 3 months or so just to remind them I'm still alive and ready to work whenever they get the word to resume hiring. Any more often I feel would be a little too much.

Also, HR is aware of the AviationInterviews web site, and that their interview questions were getting predictable. Look for different questions when they resume interviewing.

Cheers

Three captain displacements in Sept.

More captains than FO's caused two different bid packets for August - I think this is the first time captains and FOs have had different lines.

If the bottom three captains take a voluntary displacement they are FO for a maximum of three months. If they hold out and there is an involuntary displacement then all bets are off.

I'm looking forward to the new hires and upgrades!

Maybe I will get a call soon!! Yahoo

Maybe I will get a call soon!! Yahoo

You're just workin it everywhere huh?

 

[AnimalTale]

The, Voluntary, three displacements are for the shortage of FOs currently on the list. Also (rumored from a legible source) classes will be starting in September instead of October.


Good Luck

Frontier class date

Got a call from Gary Hamrick in HR today offering a 12 Sept class. I've been in the pool since my 8 Sept class was cnx'd last year. Finally, the wait is over. Anyone know a good place to get an FAA medical in Denver. Good luck to all.
