Because the future of Delta begins with you.

“My Delta journey started back in 2007 while I was working as a contract Recruiter for one of Delta’s partners. I focused on hiring Flight Attendants, Ticket Agents, and Baggage Handlers and frequently traveled to many of Delta’s hubs, making me feel like a Delta employee from day one. I officially transitioned to a full-time Delta employee in 2021.

Over the years, my career progression with Delta has brought about significant change and opportunity. I moved to New York City to manage our employment office, overseeing frontline hiring for the LGA and JFK hubs. I’ve also recruited for frontline and corporate roles across many divisions like Airport Customer Service, Global Clean Services, Cargo, In-Flight Service, and Pilots. Learning about the many parts of our operation and working alongside the talented and passionate people of Delta has allowed me to be a more well-rounded champion of the Delta employer brand.

I’m fortunate to get to interact with our candidates. I enjoy every aspect of it - getting to know them initially, helping them prep interviews and extending job offers. Bringing it full circle, I love checking in with employees a few weeks, months, and years into their Delta career and hearing about their successes and how their Delta journey has changed their life.  

If you’re considering a Delta career, research Delta’s culture and what matters to us as a company, such as our ‘Rules of the Road’ or how we give back to our local communities. It will help prepare you for the “Why Delta” question that will inevitably come up in an interview.”

"My career with Delta began in 2010 through a referral, and I was lucky enough to join a team of exceptional leaders and peers. I started as a Senior Test Engineer, where I led multiple teams. Over time, I began to take on an increased level of responsibility. I was promoted to IT Manager and now hold the role of General Manager. There have been many colleagues who have inspired me to pursue my dreams. My best self has emerged, and I thrive in our supportive and inspiring environment.

The best part about my job is the opportunity to use cutting-edge technology to deliver innovative solutions that provide real value and impact to our customers. However, it goes beyond the work - I also love collaborating with amazing colleagues who inspire and encourage me. Delta has a people-focused culture. They genuinely care and support employees across many initiatives like mentorship, well-being, and more. The unique combination of technology, teamwork, and enjoyment makes working for Delta fulfilling.

My advice to candidates seeking a Delta career is to consider the long-term commitment that comes with building a career rather than just finding a job. If you want a career with a company that values its employees, offers growth opportunities, and provides a sense of purpose, then Delta is the perfect place for you to thrive."

"As someone born and raised in Atlanta, I’ve always been a fan of my hometown airline. As I was thinking about my career and where I wanted to invest my time, share my knowledge, and advance my skills, very few companies came to mind, but Delta was at the top of my list. Delta leads the way in technology within the Aviation industry; I was very motivated to join the team. 

My job involves helping to manage human risk through awareness and education. I enable Delta employees to be a champion in protecting our company from cyber risk through training and support. Keeping our data and assets safe is critical to the operation and it's rewarding to be part of a team doing such meaningful work.

I knew almost immediately that Delta was the right place for me. Not only do I have a job that I am passionate about, but I also work with amazing people who care as much about each other as they do about Delta. Our culture is unmatched! I’m #DeltaProud when I walk through the doors each morning. It's been an incredible journey and I can't wait to see what the future has in store at Delta".

"My career with Delta began six months ago, but my journey started well before then. My mom is a Delta employee and my inspiration for pursuing this opportunity. After submitting several applications, I came across the Senior Scheduling Analyst role on LinkedIn and immediately jumped on it. A few weeks later, I officially started my Delta career. 

I have gained so much knowledge in a short amount of time. This opportunity has pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best ways. I have been able to network with leadership, serve on a committee in my department, and collaborate with others on my team as we all learn and grow. The experience and knowledge gained pushes me to want more and strive for the next level.

One of my favorite parts about working at Delta is the unity I experience every day. Delta fosters an inclusive, people-centric culture. My colleagues inspire, encourage and support me. It truly feels like a second family.

A career at Delta is fulfilling and rewarding. If you see an opportunity, go for it. As with most things, it may not happen overnight, but with patience and continuous learning, the right time will come. We like to say at Delta, Keep Climbing. Words that I live by and encourage you to do the same as you pursue a Delta career."
