Only taking application until SUNDAY. Currently work for Alaska and it's a Great Company to work for, and amazing co-workers! Those who have a referral get moved to the top of the interview list. Referral? Sharpen your resume. Hit me up. B |

I'm excited, I found the information on another forum with a different airline. So I immediatley applied for them, thankfully I saw it... Since they are only accepting applications until Sunday, I might of missed the opportunity. Unfortunately, I do not know anyone who works for Alaska that can put in a referral in for me. But, atleast I got my application in. Are you able to provide input regarding the interview? Thank you! |

Does anyone know where they will be doing the interviews? That's awesome, right when I saw it posted on their career site I immediately applied, and told my friends who are interested. I'm glad you have a referral, your application is now on the top of the list. I don't know where the interview is going to be held, I'm assuming in Seattle or Anchorage?..Not sure though. Do you happen to know if they accommodate for the flights back and forth for those who don't live in the interview area? Wish you the best of luck! Hopefully we get a call back! |

I bet that that has not changed. |

And also best to luck with you and everyone that is applying ! I hope we hear from them soon....:) |

Hopefully they do, I attended an interview with another airline last month and they provided roundtrip travel. However, I believe only a few do this. Do you happen to know the process after placing an application? Do they call to proceed with a Phone Interview, and from there see if you're invited for a Group Interview/Face2Face Interview? I wish you the best of luck, maybe we'll see each other in the near future during interview sessions. |

Three years ago, I flew out there (again, on my own dime)and it was an "open house" a.k.a. a "cattle call". However, Horizon Airlines (which I recently applied with) and is owned by Alaska Air no longer has an "open house" or "cattle call" it is now via invite---so, maybe Alaska has changed this. Hopefully, we will find out soon! :) |

I applied on Monday (Had referral from Alaska employee) and I received a call back on Tuesday. It was a quick turn around process, the group interview will be held next Monday. If anyone has any tips for the interview I will greatly appreciate it. I have been searching this site but could not find a good forum. Good Luck everyone. |

I have been searching this site but could not find a good forum. Wow, you got a call back the very next day... awesome! When they called you, was it a phone interview? They must be looking at candidates who currently reside in Washington and/or Alaska before branching out to out-of-state. |

Did you apply some other way, since you had a referral? |

gizmo in Bellevue, Washington 26 months ago |
LetMeBeInflight in Las- A recrutier called me to verify my application, asked me who my referral was and told me that they are calling back applicants who are referred first. I applied Monday the 14th, I did ot have a problem online on the alaska air website. I had to sign up for an account but it seemed to work. I also received a confirmation email stating that my resume was received. |

FA in Fayetteville in Fayetteville, Arkansas 26 months ago |
Unfortunately I have not heard anything either. I would love to work for Alaska Airlines. They are a wonderful company with a great reputation for safety and providing outstanding customer service. I applied Saturday, March 12th. I suspect they may only be looking at local candidates due the the upcoming training date in April. However, that is only an opinion. Best of luck to everyone that applied. |

There was still one posting for FA's on Monday morning. It was taken down by the afternoon. Over the weekend there were 2 postings. One stated that it was strictly for the Anchorage base. The other stated Seattle and Anchorage. |

Has anyone not living in washington state heard anything yet ? |
|
Pow2004 in California 26 months ago |
Not yet. I heard that it takes some time but, it will be worth the wait. Maybe they are giving internal apps higher priority. Thats what some airlines do I heard. |

Under the flight attendant job description it stated that the training class was to begin April 18. Yes. Unpaid. |

f.kuhia@yahoo.com in Indianapolis, Indiana said: Hi Everyone, I haven't heard if they are hiring a certain amount. I do know that training is not paid and I have heard that unpaid training is becoming industry standard with the economy the way it is. I too had a referral. Good luck to you and let us know if you hear anything. |

Smilin in Los Angeles, California 26 months ago |
5 1/2 week Training I went through in 2000 with another airline was also unpaid however meals & meal vouchers were provided & a bonus after successful completion of training.

Franny k in Kirkland, Washington 26 months ago |
The company I work for now is hiring. They pay you during training. I know most dont any more. That must make it hard for those who dont live near training. |

No. I don't work for them now. |

I have mine tomorrow and wanted to know what to expect!! Can't wait to start class |
|
Smilin in Los Angeles, California 26 months ago |
Gizmo, They didn't do it the same day as your interview? Are you flying to Seattle? I'm guessing you are referring to fingerprinting, drug & nicotine testing?

|
Gizmo in Alameda, California 26 months ago |
No, I live in Bellevue (weird that it says that) and they did not do the finger printing and drug and nicotine test the day of the interview. Did you? Our interview lasted all day so they told us they would call us to set up an appointment. Mine is tomorrow. How was the experience, I am a bit nervous just because I don't know what to expect. How long did it take? |
|
Smilin in Los Angeles, California 26 months ago |
It's painless. Lol If you are the only one there, it will be pretty quick. If there are others, there may be a wait. Are you in the April class? |
|

Anyone else hear anything from Alaska? Has anyone else been hired |
