I believe they interviewed first two weeks of December and get back to people for January course about 2-3 weeks out from ground school date. When that class starts is beyond me.

They can be very slow to advise people (successful or not)

Is Sunwing going to contact those interviewed in early December to let them know if they were successful or not? So far they have only contacted those selected for the January ground school.
Thanks!

I have yet to hear any rumors or hear back. I haven't even heard of anyone getting a PFO.

My best bet would be a 05 FEB ground school, with calls going out around the 22/23 FEB. Pure shot in the dark guess.

There may be a delay for new hires as it was just announced there will be some F/O's upgrading to Captain shortly. They may need the groundschool instructors and SIM slots to get the upgrades completed before they resume hiring for F/O's.

I was aware of the upgrades for YYZ and YUL, but I was not aware that they would fill the new hire sim slots with upgrades. Thanks for the intel. It is greatly appreciated for those of us playing the waiting game.

I haven't heard any insider info recently. Anyone have an update? I'm more so looking to see if a March ground school is 100% dead in the water, given the upgrades going on.

I also had an interview in December and haven't heard back from them.
I was told that one of my colleagues had an interview after me and got PFO'd 2 or 3 weeks later.
So there is still hope! No news is good news! (maybe?)

It's just too bad they are not telling "Yes, you're in, just waiting for a class" or "No, thanks for applying" so that I would stop or continue to look for other opportunities.
