It's up

I've never F5'd so hard.

Same here. I refreshed at exactly on the hour and nothing. Refreshed again and it was there.

Good luck to everyone that applies!

Does anyone have insight in to the interview process? Do I need to sacrifice a goat or anything like that?

 

[WannaBeDX]

A goat isn’t going to cut it. This is at least cow territory here.

Seriously though, unless they’ve changed it recently you go in for a test. If you pass said test, they call you back for a face to face.

What kinda test? I'm pretty good at math and science. Those trick questions that delta does throw me off.

It’s a dispatch exam, and you’ll want to study

Damn, I was hoping I would be the only person to hear about this, or apply....

That's why we had a false alarm last week

Thank you, will do.

Word of advice for the written: Read CAREFULLY what the question is asking. They don't set traps, per se, but there are some set of to nail the "oh, that's obvious" group.

Best of luck to everyone!

Should I approach this like the written exam going into getting my license?

Well, it should be taken with the same level of seriousness, but this isn't like the ADX written. There's no memorizing little hints like "tendon damage"!

This is a career job. You should approach it as though this is your one and only shot by preparing for it as such. Should you get an interview and it doesn’t go well due to unpreparedness, you might not get a second invite. I’d prepare in a way that sets you up to walk away from an interview with a job offer. That’s how serious I would take it but that’s just me.

Best of luck to all who apply!

If you have never tried for a major before, this is no kids game. It is incredibly competitive and you have to find a way to be memorable in a good way against 1000 others with basically the same qualifications. Don’t get too frustrated if you don’t get the job, just keep at it until you do.

Thanks, yall. I've been trying for a major for years and understand the competitive nature. It isn't easy but I feel good about this.

So you are saying its not competitive at the regional level?

Not as competitive as on the major level. The regionals all can and do hire people with just a pulse if they have a period of high attrition. At a major, there are probably upwards of a thousand people with connections and a good resume. The people doing the hiring have a lot of really great people to sort through and everyone wants their friends and family hired.

Which is •. Someone that knows someone shouldn't matter. Hire the best qualified person. I am legacy at major and they won't give me the time of day.

And I don't have the time to censor what I write. I have plenty of education. <redacted>

I think I have an idea now why nobody will hire you.
