How long until you hear back from AC?
Hello everyone
I had my interview done mid January. How long does it take to hear back from them? They told me something about 6-12 weeks but I would like to know if someone has had news earlier than that. Thanks

A buddy of mine did his interview first week of December and he’s still waiting to hear back - Jazz guy if that means anything anymore.
I imagine the holidays pushed things back a bit.

Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
If you’re not bearing back after 3 weeks from the interview date, just know that they have placed you in a pool of low hours or low competitiveness. They’re getting back to people with lots of hours, command, teaching, degree…etc way faster than those who are at or slightly above the minimum requirements. It would’t hurt to send them an email inquiring about the status of your application though. Good luck!

Is there any truth to this really ? A pool of low hours or low competitiveness Otherwise they give you an answer within 3 weeks?RandyLahey wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 9:03 am If you’re not bearing back after 3 weeks from the interview date, just know that they have placed you in a pool of low hours or low competitiveness.

Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
No there’s absolutely zero truth to that. The current average is about 8-10 weeks.Latitude wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 1:55 pmIs there any truth to this really ?

3 days from interview to ground school offer. 8000 total time, 3500 large aircraft, 705 PIC, aviation diploma, overseas experience, internal recommend, white male. I was also told 6-8 weeks.
Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
That must have been awesome. Do you mind if I ask when you interviewed if it was recent and have you started already? I interviewed in November and got the background check request recently but it's been comm silence since then. Hoping it's the saying no news is good news. My background 4000+ hours with an aviation degree and 705 time.Daniel Cooper wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 6:17 pm 3 days from interview to ground school offer. 8000 total time, 3500 large aircraft, 705 PIC, aviation diploma, overseas experience, internal recommend, white male.

How do you know they’ve done your background check?
Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
I'm not sure I understand your question, but I got an email saying I would be getting a background check request. I got the request and filled up the form and I got an email saying my response has been received. if it's been completed, I don't know. I hope I answered your question.Newbieyyz wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 6:54 pmtata324 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 6:40 pmThat must have been awesome.

Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
Yes, it’s pretty clear. Thanks. I was unsure about the background check request cause some companies do it without letting you know!tata324 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 7:35 pmI'm not sure I understand your question, but I got an email saying I would be getting a background check request.

Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
I was surprised for sure. It wasn't recent though. A couple of years ago. From what I understand there is a hiring board that meets only occasionally (once a month?) to decide who to hire next. So if your interview is right after this board meeting you will need to wait until the next meeting for them to review your application and make a decision.tata324 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 09, 2023 6:40 pm

Good luck.
Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
oh awesome, do you know if any OTS guys got the call, cos i heard its JAZZ peeps getting the calls, thanks.
Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
Everyone I know who got a PFO heard back in about 3 weeks. Everyone who waited longer eventually got a call. So if it’s been more then a month that’s probably a good thing.

Re: How long until you hear back from AC?
I did an interview Nov 25th. Was told 6-8 weeks due to the holidays and training backlogs. Was emailed a background check request two weeks later. Got the call 9 weeks after my interview. None of my references were called.
Good luck!
