Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
From what I understand, all the OTS folks that are currently being called put their info in during the last application window in the Spring of 2016. I know a couple folks that got offered the Sept 11th GS - they did their video interviews in the Spring of this year.

That info helps alot...gives some of us hope who have only recently put the info in....

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
How long is it typically between the video interview and the offer for an in-person interview specifically for the OTS candidates?
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
Not to hijack the thread, but will there be an opportunity for outsiders to apply online anytime soon?

About a month between each step.
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
So it goes:
Online interview
Month
In-person interview
Month
Medical
Month
Hiring pool?
Is that correct?

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
I've recently heard of candidates being given a medical prior to the in person interview . Not sure if this is a temporary thing due to a backlog in interviewing or if this is the new process going forward.

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
I wouldn't get too caught up in a time line for the process. It appears that it varies candidate to candidate. The more you stress over it the longer it will seem to take.
A mile of road will take you a mile, but a mile of runway can take you anywhere

Has anybody else received all of the 'expect an interview' emails and still have not received an invitation for the video interview?

What this guy said. It the last PIT it seemed like all of us had different timelines for our own hiring process.skypirate88 wrote:I wouldn't get too caught up in a time line for the process.

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
With some course movement happening this fall, does anyone have any idea when the window will open again for OTS applications? I've seen the question asked recently in this thread without a response. Any rumours/guesses are appreciated.
Thanks,

Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
I'm wondering, if there's others candidates in the same situation, i did my medical and it past 3 months without news. Should i be worry ?
Re: The Air Canada OTS thread
I got my invite for the video interview after applying in early 2016 as an OTS. I imagine I'm likely one of the last of that group to be invited since, even though I'm a 705 Capt now, when I applied I was a single engine 703 Capt, so my application was quite weak. Anyways, I don't think I did too good on the interview. It's quite awkward talking to a screen and I stuttered a bit from nerves. Good luck to all that applied.
