Anymore guys/gals hear from B-1 Dyess?
-
Congrats man. I doubt you wont get an email invite especially if you said it went really well on the phone.
-
This coming Friday or last Friday?
-
nope.
-
$100 visa gift cards to each board member probably wouldn't hurt. Kidding aside, I personally never liked the idea of bringing gifts to strangers with an ulterior motive of trying to get hired. Being a military guy myself, I know that my peers and myself would see it as a "kissing ass" gesture. Sell yourself and your work/flying history. You can bring the booze when you're the snacko.
-
My guess is the B-1 unit will send out invites this coming week considering the interview date is less than 2 weeks away.
-
Big thanks to you man for posting that.I would have missed it on guardreservejobs.
-
Go for it
-
You won't be disappointed with the experience. I was given a UPT slot with Alaska in 2014 with welcome arms. If anything, its a great reason to visit Anchorage for a day or two.

I talked to the POC listed for Beale in early March and they sent me an application. However, they said they'd just been assigned some pilots from UPT and didn't plan on having a hiring board soon. Granted, things can change fast, so its encouraging to see the job posting.

I don't think you'd be offered a Zoom interview if they didn't expect it to be the more practical way for some people. A lot of people live/work around immune compromised people, and I doubt they'd want you to risk getting or giving COVID to your loved ones for an interview. Go with your gut, its up to you.

Make sure you're wearing pants when they ask you to stand up.

Last update I got was in March. I sent in my app in March.
-
I called them a few months back. The unit recruiter I spoke to said their focus is local applicants, and pretty much said without saying it outright that being a non-local will be extremely difficult to get an interview. FWIW.
-
Nothing new but, checked in with some units and its all the same thing; boards tentatively planned sometime in summer at the earliest.
-
Just stopping by to keep my dream of flying the KC-135 alive. Carry on gents. 🤘
-
If this continues for the next few months, I could see units doing Skype/Facetime interviews to keep a flow of people coming to the unit.
-
Army unit.
-
All the reserve units I spoke to the last week have indefinitely postponed future UPT boards.
-
My unit has already cancelled drill for the month of April.
-
And for some of us...: USAF: "Alright, we need pilots. Color vision dudes, you've got a new standard. New FC1 standard now in effect." COVID-19: "Not so fast..."
-
Great post, and many congratulations are in order for you. You're set for life, very happy for you man.

2020 Air Force Active Duty UPT Board
CavGuy replied to Bob Uecker's topic in Pilot Selection Process
Thanks for that info. I'll get a 368 going up the chain. Did your guard unit you got a slot with want to see the 368 also? -
They probably prefer you bring a bottle of Jack
