Looks like NW is ramping up the hiring at IND. They are now hiring luggage handlers and customer service agents as well as flight attendants.

In the past week NW has posted 3 different listings for luggage handlers at IND. Is another schedule change coming up or are they that short staffed?

All of the airlines are experiencing unbelievable turnover.

Wow NW must be having all kinds of problems getting luggage handlers.

This marks the 4th job listing NW has posted for IND in the last week.

I believe they have announced late June.

Will this impact the IND flight schedule at all? If so then in what way?

Now that the Court has approved the bankruptcy exit, when will NW officially leave bankruptcy? And anyone have any guesses on what NW will do with IND? More flights? less flights? complete pullout? *loL*

I give up trying to post the new NW jobs on careerbuilder.com. They've added 2 new listings while I was on vacation. There are now 5 listings for luggage handlers.

There is almost no point in mentioning job openings for NW. They continue to post openings at IND on careerbuilder.com. Unless they post something other than luggage handlers or customer service reps I won't bother updating the job posts. It becomes a broken record .

So the lesson here is that we should expect baggage service on NW to be worse than usual for a while?

I would say just don't expect to know any of them by name. Turnover is high.
