Well if you haven’t heard by now Delta just made the bonus obsolete completely. They have now expanded when they will hire us from active duty.
This was posted on their Pilot recruiting FB page, along with a story about it on their website as well.
At Delta Air Lines, we are committed to recruiting, hiring, and retaining top talent from the U.S. Armed Forces to better serve those who served us. As part of this commitment, we are proud to announce that we will begin interviewing and extending conditional job offers (CJOs) to retiring full-time active-duty military and full-time Active Guard Reserve (AGR) members, as an expansion of the previous process.
For all other military members, we will also begin interview processes and extending CJOs to successful candidates 12 months prior to their availability date.
“This process expansion will allow retiring service members to secure a job at Delta Air Lines while finishing up their patriotic duties over a period of up to two years and up to one year for all other military members,” said John Laughter, E.V.P. and Chief of Operations. “This will provide our service members and their families with the security of a career lined up and ready, while they make a life transition and get settled in the next chapter of their lives. On behalf of the entire Delta family, thank you for your service.”
