Re: Hiring pool wait time

I was in the pool for one year and then recently just got removed. My advice would be to continue looking for alternative employment until you have a confirmed GS date. Good luck! Thats brutal, how much experience do you have? I know they slowed down on hiring last year but they said in the intervi...

Re: Fall Ground School?

What does it mean to be in the pool? After the virtual interview or before? Any past experience here for how long between virtual interview and offer or GS date to stop looking for a job?? So I submitted the virtual interview and it says screening in progress. Is it a long wait after that? when is ...

Re: Fall Ground School?

Are there Fall GS classes for Encore? Did anyone get any offer? Been in the pool from so long and not sure if I should wait or look for other opportunities. I’ve been told that a fall ground is in order. However , I have heard nothing yet either. If you’re an unemployed pilot , it is always best to...

Re: Agreement in principle reached.

I'm curious about those saying vote no... not saying you're wrong Just curious what it would take to say yes to something? The executive summary looks like it was a rush job by the MEC and lacks detail. That really doesn't help. I concur. It lacks a significant amount of detail. I would assume that...

Re: Agreement in principle reached.

Less work more pay! Looking forward to seeing the gains. Encore pilots have been subjected to years of abysmal wages.

Hopefully they can afford to order cheese on their burger moving forward.

Re: Hiring Pool

I was put in the pool about 6 weeks ago for the FO position. Hoping for some big gains at the bargaining table because my Visa is maxed! With the current salary I’ll be living off of Wonder Bread and weiner water soup! I love being a pilot!
