I just can't / won't pay to apply to an airline. Not a bad system if you're willing to pay, but total crap if you're not. If you pay the $$$$$$$$$ you can input your info and target the airlines you want. It takes way too long to fill out apps, and without paying you have to fill out one at a time. Quoting 777ord ( Reply 8): DashTrash, what is so bad about airlineapps? I've seen the site, but I don't feel like paying for another airline app site I can't explore prior too. I think you'll find that you're going to get in right at the start of the next big wave which is a great position to be in. You've been slugging it out for a while (based on posts here) and are one of the people that have stuck with it. After that I determined that I wouldn't take a pay cut to fly an airplane. I interviewed at one once, before I was furloughed, because I could jumpseat. Which probably won't go well, and would mean shelling out over $500 just to get my butt out to the other side of the country just for interviewing, but I guess I may as well give it a shot, it's not like I got much else going for me anywaysĪny company that doesn't get you to the interview should be an immediate red flag. Quoting Fly2HMO ( Reply 6): At any rate, I have an interview coming up at the end of this month. With that kind of time, you're pretty much limited to doing what most of us did: instructing. With most flying jobs it's the insurance minimums that govern more than FAA minimums. I almost asked her, how much PIC turbine time SHE had.

Holding my resume over the garbage waiting for an answer. I remember one secretary asking me, sneering, 'How much pilot-in-command turbine time do you have?'. Never before have I wanted to leave someone a black eye so badly. Heck at the one place I pretty much got laughed at when he saw my total time. I've done several and was never received with much enthusiasm, I get the feeling my resume was in the shredder in most of these places shortly after I walked out. Quoting Fly2HMO ( Reply 6): One can only do so many walk-ins. If I can guess correctly, the OP is looking for work that will, when filling an online application will allow him an airline interview. Less than 500TT will allow you to enter information, but it wont get much further than that. All factors are weighted, graded and tallied, then interviews are granted in order. In fact, at my airline (which is hiring to maximum the training centre will allow right now) does the whole process online. Actually going to HQ in person will generally get you nowhere these days.ĭoesn't sound like we are talking airline hiring here though. Quoting DashTrash ( Reply 7): For airline hiring these days you either email your resume directly, fill out an online application, or use an evil torture device known as ''. It's different of course for corporate jobs and smaller companies where that might work. I know with NetJets you wouldn't get in the parking lot without a company ID.

My resume isn't perfect but it worked.įor airline hiring these days you either email your resume directly, fill out an online application, or use an evil torture device known as ''. If you want, PM me your email address and I'll look it over and send you what I used to get hired at a few different companies. Also, depending on how much time you have your resume might be the issue. Unless you REALLY know people, I doubt there's any companies desperate enough to want to get sub-500 hr pilots. Some swear there is a hiring boom already, but from what I've seen that only has benefited to guys with 1000 hrs or more. Quoting Fly2HMO ( Reply 3): I'll just say i got slightly less time than you, with a CFII though, and I've been spamming my resume to places left and right for the past 3 years and have only gotten called for two interviews in that whole time.
