TPNx Update: Meet and Greets
In this episode, Adam Uhan discusses TPNX meet and greets, interactions with United recruiters, and the importance of open-mindedness when choosing airlines. He delves into a case study of a Marine's journey in airline selection, explores diverse job opportunities in aviation, and emphasizes the role of research in career expansion. The episode concludes with the normalization of the pilot hiring process and the community benefits of TPNX.
Key Points
- American Airlines has already sent out confirmations for meet and greets, and while there's a standby list, there's no guarantee for those not already scheduled, but efforts will be made to accommodate everyone at TPNX.
- United Airlines' approach to meet and greets might differ, with no pre-scheduled meetings within the app, but TPNX volunteers will ensure interested attendees get a chance to interact with United recruiters without having to wait in long lines.
- It's important to keep an open mind about career opportunities in the aviation industry and not fixate on a single airline, as attending TPNX and exploring various options can lead to unexpected and fulfilling career paths.
A lot of questions have cropped up around the meet and greet scheduling with American and United. This episode touches on those challenges and a little peek behind the scenes. Bottom line: Stay patient and keep a smile on your face! Much easier said than done at times like this, but it is the only way to deal with the turbulent world of aviation.
Another thing that this episode discusses is having a goal airline or job is truly a great thing, but it shouldn't close off other opportunities that may come your way. Keep every option on the table; things are changing in aviation...again. Becoming inflexible is going to create more harm than good and could put you in a tight spot down the road. This wisdom holds true for the entirety of your career, not just TPNx.
We appreciate your patience, support, and belief. The TPNx team is going to do its level best to ensure as many pilots get to see a recruiter from one of their top airline choices. This is a great time to hack the clock, take a breath, and chill for a minute. We got your back!
