The Endeavor Air process: Based on applicant reports, Endeavor's typical hiring timeline proceeds as follows: the phone screening is brief (15 minutes) and focuses on "why Endeavor," flight training, and work history, with interview invitations arriving 10 days to 3 weeks later. The in-person interview typically occurs within 2 days of scheduling. After the in-person interview, candidates can expect a decision (CJO or TBNT) within 3 days to 2.5 weeks, though some report waiting up to 9-10 weeks or even a month. CJO to class date typically ranges from 7 weeks to several months (one applicant waited from September CJO to March class date). If you receive a TBNT, industry standard appears to be a 6-month reapplication window before reapplying. Note that some candidates have experienced extended delays at various stages, so patience is warranted, and attending recruiting events may help accelerate your application.
