Delta Air Lines
Company overview
Delta Air Lines is a global airline that transports passengers and cargo across a large domestic and international route network, with customer-facing roles spanning airports, in-flight service, and operations control. Delta Air Lines also runs sizeable corporate functions, including finance, commercial strategy, and technology that support planning, revenue management, and day-to-day operations. Public filings and the company careers site describe a workforce of more than 100,000 employees.
Locations and presence
Delta Air Lines is headquartered in Atlanta, and the company notes that most student opportunities are based in Atlanta because it is the location of Delta Air Lines’ global headquarters. Delta Air Lines operates broadly across the U.S. and internationally, with work setup varying by role, including on-site training requirements for frontline roles like flight attendants.
Delta Air Lines offers multiple early-career doors through paid internships, multi-semester co-ops, and rotational programs, plus entry-level frontline roles with structured training. Hiring transparency is strongest in specific tracks like flight attendants and pilots where stages are spelled out, while candidate-reported timelines still vary. Pay and stability signals are helped by broad benefits and profit-sharing, but the company does not publish consistent early-career outcome metrics such as conversion rates or time-to-promotion.
