Re: July/August interview
The same thing that happen to jazz guys is now happening to OTS. Whatever they tell you for timing is far from the truth. Everyone who interviewed at jazz after December 2022 was told 2 months max from interview to offer, and ended up waiting 8 months. In the end AC does whatever they want.

Re: July/August interview
That's right, except that Jazz pilot reservoir cannot be sucked the way OTS are sucked from other companies. So successful Jazz pilots reservoir is going to an end (my guess pretty soon), OTS being called at that moment.canadian_aviator_4 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 04, 2023 12:41 pm The same thing that happen to jazz guys is now happening to OTS.

Interview/Medical July 10th. Got the call yesterday for Nov 29th start. They didn't even call my references. I also had to redo the psych eval. Those computerized tests aren't that great. Good luck to everyone!

That'll be the case until the end of 2023. Then 2024 is another story.
I'm surprised they aren't filling up the class with 40 pilots though.

Re: July/August interview
Was there any hint in the interviews, that if hiring stops, maybe reversing to layoffs, with diplomatic rows in two major widebody destinations, Tel Aviv and Delhi? Or do they have enough destinations that still wets the appetite for growth?
Serious answers only please.

Re: July/August interview
None. It's business as usual. Matter of fact this year we have now surpassed the most amount of new hires hired in single year in all of AC's history. We have 4 mores classes scheduled till the end of this year. 2 classes in Nov. 2 classes in Dec. Might be one technically starting right after Christmas.alkaseltzer wrote: ↑Mon Oct 16, 2023 5:07 pm Was there any hint in the interviews, that if hiring stops, maybe reversing to layoffs, with diplomatic rows in two major widebody destinations, Tel Aviv and Delhi?

Re: July/August interview
Anybody aware if there will be any PIT courses in Dec? I heard from a colleague that HR told them they were not sure if they were going forward with the Dec PIT courses or not.

The stock price is currently lower than it was of the height of March/Apr 2020. Height of covid.

Re: July/August interview
From what I’m told it’s all jazz guys getting the call right now. For the rest of the year it sounds like a class every two weeks, 24 people, 20 of them being jazz.
My references have been contacted but I’m still waiting on my call.

24 in total or 24 in each class?
