Do they say how long it takes to become a mainline driver?

Anyone heard anything back yet?

Scored 72 but no word as yet. It did say we should know within 2 weeks though.

Had medical. Just signing the contract now.

Sorry to hear that mar_k. Aren't assessments valid for 2 years, so you don't have to go though that all again, apart from managers interview?
