didn't I have tried replying three times and hopefully this one goes through. I work at SDF on the ramp. I  go anywhere for training due to COVID. I had past ramp experience, so I had some knowledge of the job. I was teamed up with a trainer on the morning shift(0500-1330) for one month. After the one month I was signed off and went to closing shift(1600-0030). Where are you gonna work and GOOD LUCK!. Any questions please feel free to ask.

Hi, I’m having my virtual interview in a couple days? Do you have any recommendations? Did you only go through the virtual interview or you had to do an in-person interview as well? Thank you!!

Every one of my interviews was virtual. Don't get discouraged if you don't hear back from your recruiter in a timely manner. Just make sure you have their email to correspond with them if you feel the need to do so.   Good Luck!

@Tnihipal, have you been given a start date for LGB yet? From the email I got last week, we work at station for about two weeks, basically getting familiar with everything. Then we head out to Dallas for a week, leaving on a Sunday.

My start date at LGB is Monday 4/11 so that would put Dallas 4/24. I don't have that official yet, but that's my best guess. Hope that info helps you and feel free to reach out to me if I can help at all.

@jmalloy I emailed my recruiter today and she stated they are just waiting on my fingerprints to process so no start date yet. Awesome, thank you very much! I’m a tad bit nervous, new job jitters pretty much.
